A SERVPRO picture of a before and after picture of hoarding. Hoarding

Hoarding--it was a term which began with folks known to have their savings by them, probably hidden inside their flock-beds; in the contemporary day, hoarding in a living or work space is a pattern characterized by excessive acquisition of and/or an inability or unwillingness to discard large quantities of objects that cover the living areas of the home, or an office area.  You may have made a commitment to clear out and clean out. 

It takes time.

Some conditions that may be present in a hoarding situation:

  • Beds that cannot be slept in;
  • Kitchens that cannot be used for food preparation; Tables, chairs, or sofas that cannot be used for dining or sitting;
  • Unsanitary bathrooms; Tubs, showers, and sinks filled with items and can no longer be used for washing or bathing;
  • Their clutter and mess is at a point where it can cause illness, distress, and impairment. 
  • Also, if pets are present, they may have caused significant damage to floors and carpeting because they have been having accidents inside. 

We do rebuild--We are also capable of laying flooring, carpeting and much, much more.  We are here to help.
