Common Questions About Squalor Cleaning in East Phillips, Minneapolis, MN

Can I clean up a filthy home myself?

Only if the area is small, the surfaces are hard and nothing hazardous is present, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, mold, pests or strong odor call for a crew. Never mix cleaning chemicals.

Will the resident's belongings and papers be saved?

Yes where they can be. The crew sets aside documents, photos, medicine and valuables that can be cleaned, and the resident can name anything that must be kept. Items too soiled to clean safely are discarded.

What is the difference between squalor and hoarding?

Hoarding is about a build-up of belongings, and hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition. Squalor is about unsanitary conditions such as waste, rot and pests. The two can overlap, and a team can handle both in one plan.

What is extreme cleaning?

Extreme cleaning is a broad term for cleaning a home that is far beyond ordinary housekeeping. It can include trash removal, deep scrubbing, disinfecting, odor treatment and removal of soiled materials.

Can odor be fully removed?

Often yes, when the source is removed or treated. Soiled mattresses, carpet and soaked materials may need to go, and surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected. Covering smell with fragrance does not last.

Does the resident need to be present?

Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
