What's included

What Is Included in This Service

Every job includes the core hoarding cleanup and mold remediation steps. Add-ons like pest control or property repair are quoted separately after the walkthrough.

01
✓

Full Debris Removal

We sort, bag, and haul all clutter using heavy-duty contractor bags and roll-off containers. Donation runs are included when you want usable items diverted from the landfill.

02
✓

Mold Inspection and Mapping

Moisture meters and thermal imaging locate hidden mold behind walls and under floors. You get a written map of affected areas before remediation begins.

03
✓

HEPA Vacuuming and Treatment

Industrial HEPA vacuums capture spores, and EPA-registered treatments kill active mold on framing, drywall, and subfloor. Negative air machines run throughout to protect clean rooms.

04
✓

Odor Neutralization

Ozone generators, hydroxyl generators, and fogging solutions neutralize mildew and ammonia odors. We treat the whole home, not just the visible mold areas.

05
✓

Final Verification and Report

We take final moisture readings and air samples, then provide a written summary with photos. This documentation satisfies insurance, code, and real estate requirements.

How it works

What to Expect During the Job

We ask about square footage, number of rooms affected, pets, and whether mold is visible. You get a ballpark range on the call and a firm quote after a 20-minute walkthrough. Same-day appointments are available for urgent cases.

Crews lay 6-mil poly barriers and run negative air machines to keep spores from spreading to clean rooms. We set up a debris chute or haul path so boxes move out without dragging contamination through the house.

We sort into keep, donate, and dispose piles with you or your family present when possible. Heavy-duty contractor bags, debris boxes, and roll-off containers handle the volume. A typical 1,200 sq ft home takes two to four days.

Once surfaces are exposed, we HEPA-vac, apply EPA-registered treatments, and remove compromised drywall or insulation. Thermal fogging and air scrubbers run for 24-48 hours depending on spore counts and humidity levels.

We take final moisture readings and air samples, then walk the home with you room by room. You get a written summary with photos, disposal records, and any recommended repairs before we pack up.

Tools & methods

Tools and Methods We Use

01
✓

Industrial HEPA vacuums

Capture mold spores and fine dust during debris removal and after remediation. Standard shop vacs blow spores back into the air; HEPA units trap them at 99.97% efficiency.

02
✓

Negative air machines

Create pressure differentials that keep mold spores inside the containment zone. We run them continuously during remediation to protect unaffected rooms.

03
✓

Moisture meters and thermal imaging

Find hidden moisture behind walls, under floors, and inside ceilings. These tools tell us exactly where mold is likely growing before we open anything up.

04
✓

Ozone and hydroxyl generators

Neutralize odors from mold, ammonia, and decay after the source is removed. We run them in unoccupied spaces for 24 to 48 hours depending on volume.

05
✓

Thermal foggers and air scrubbers

Apply treatment chemicals evenly and scrub airborne particles. Foggers reach into framing cavities that sprayers miss, and scrubbers polish the air before final testing.

06
✓

Biohazard bags and sharps containers

Safely handle blood, feces, urine, and needles found in hoarded homes. OSHA-compliant disposal protects our crew and your family from contamination.

Mold in hoarded homes in South Carolina is usually caused by hidden moisture from roof leaks, plumbing drips, or high humidity that stays trapped behind stacked belongings. Summerville summers push indoor humidity past 60%, and without airflow, condensation forms on cool surfaces. Once organic material like cardboard, paper, or fabric stays damp for 48 hours, mold colonizes. Blocked vents and no HVAC circulation make it worse.
