Background
In March 2025, Sophie’s Cleaning Company was contacted by a woman in her 50s who had inherited her late uncle’s home in Newton Aycliffe, County Durham. The property had been untouched for several years and was severely affected by hoarding, with many areas inaccessible due to floor-to-ceiling clutter.
The client needed the home fully cleared and deep cleaned to prepare it for valuation and potential sale. While the volume of items was daunting, she also wanted to recover personal documents, family photographs, and anything of sentimental or financial value.
⚠️ Challenges We Faced
Massive clutter accumulation: All three bedrooms, the living room, loft, and garage were filled with items
Biohazards: Mould, rodent activity, and decaying organic matter in the kitchen and bathroom
Unstable structures: Collapsed furniture and blocked walkways created safety hazards
Emotional context: The client wanted the clearance handled with care, not just speed
Time-sensitive: An estate agent was scheduled to inspect the home within 5 days
Our Tailored Solution
1️⃣ Initial Visit & Bespoke Plan
We conducted a next-day site visit and provided a clear, itemised quote with a 4-day schedule. Our team lead explained every step to the client, including how we’d handle fragile items, documents, and contaminated materials.
2️⃣ Sorting & Recovery
Each room was cleared in zones. Items were sorted into:
Keep (photos, documents, valuables)
Recycle (metal, plastic, paper)
General waste
Biohazard (soiled textiles, moulded food, rodent-contaminated items)
We recovered:
A full photo album from the 1960s
Legal documents and uncashed pension cheques
A vintage coin collection in the loft
A sealed envelope with £500 in cash
3️⃣ Full Clearance
Removed 6.5 tonnes of accumulated clutter
Cleared all rooms, loft, under-stair storage, garden shed, and garage
Used PPE and specialist gear to handle mould and pest waste
Coordinated licensed skip hire and environmentally compliant waste disposal
4️⃣ Deep Cleaning & Decontamination
Once cleared, we deep cleaned and sanitised the property:
Carpets steam-cleaned, floors scrubbed, and hard surfaces disinfected
Anti-microbial treatment applied to areas affected by mould
Ozone fogging used to eliminate deeply embedded odours
Bathroom and kitchen sanitised using hospital-grade disinfectants
Windows, light switches, doors, and skirting boards cleaned and deodorised
5️⃣ Final Report & Client Support
The client was presented with:
Before & after photos
A room-by-room clearance checklist
Recommendations for minor repair and pest prevention
A Certificate of Clean Completion
She was overwhelmed with emotion and grateful for the careful handling of her family’s history.
