At Sophie’s House Cleaning, we recently tackled a severe hoarding cleanup in Sunderland, where a homeowner was struggling with years of accumulated clutter. The client, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Roberts, had lived in the house for over 30 years. Following a recent health scare, his family reached out to us for help, as the overwhelming clutter had made it difficult for him to move around safely.
The Circumstances
Mr. Roberts had developed a habit of keeping newspapers, magazines, and household items long past their use. The kitchen was unusable, with old food packaging stacked high, and the living room was completely blocked with furniture and miscellaneous items. Dust, cobwebs, and a buildup of grime covered every surface, and there was even evidence of pest activity. His family needed the house cleaned thoroughly so he could live comfortably and safely again.
What We Cleaned
Our professional cleaning team arrived early in the morning and began by carefully sorting items, working closely with the family to identify anything of sentimental or practical value. We then:
Removed several truckloads of unwanted clutter, including old furniture, newspapers, and household waste. Deep cleaned all rooms, including scrubbing walls, floors, and surfaces to remove years of dust and dirt. Sanitized the kitchen and bathroom, tackling stubborn grime and ensuring a hygienic environment. Deodorized the entire property to remove lingering odors from damp and dust buildup. Disinfected high-touch areas to eliminate bacteria and potential health hazards.
By the end of the job, the house was transformed from an overwhelming, hazardous space into a clean and functional home.
