Extreme Cleaning Questions Answered for Santa Fe, NM

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.

Be kind and avoid blame. Many people end up in these conditions after illness, injury, a loss or a hard stretch of life. Offer to help, ask what matters most to them and let a cleanup team handle the hard parts.

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.

How do you clean a house in unsanitary condition?

Remove trash and spoiled food first, then waste and soiled materials, then scrub and disinfect, and finish with odor treatment. Protective gear is important, and mixed cleaning chemicals should never be used together.

Can a team clean after the resident has moved out or passed away?

Yes. A cleanup team can clear and clean a home once the resident has moved, entered care or died. The family or estate decides what is kept, and the work moves at their pace.

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.
