Questions Owners and Families in Downtown, Atlanta, GA Ask About Unsanitary Home Cleanup
What should you not say to someone living in a squalid home?
Avoid words like disgusting or filthy and never say they should be ashamed. Do not throw things out without asking. Stay calm, listen and focus on safety and the next small step.
What health risks come from living in filth?
Spoiled food, waste, pests and mold can spread germs and trigger breathing trouble. They can also lead to falls and injuries. Anyone who feels unwell should see a doctor, and a cleanup lowers the risks in a clear order.
What comes after the cleanup?
Repairs, pest control or a final deep clean, depending on what was found. The team passes along notes on damage so the owner can plan. For an occupied home, support from a doctor, counselor or local group can help the clean last.
What is the difference between squalor and hoarding?
Hoarding is about a build-up of belongings, and hoarding disorder is a recognized mental health condition. Squalor is about unsanitary conditions such as waste, rot and pests. The two can overlap, and a team can handle both in one plan.
Can I clean up a filthy home myself?
Only if the area is small, the surfaces are hard and nothing hazardous is present, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, mold, pests or strong odor call for a crew. Never mix cleaning chemicals.
Does insurance cover squalor cleanup?
Usually not, since policies often exclude cleaning caused by long-term conditions. Some policies cover sudden events such as a burst pipe or a sewage backup. Read the policy, ask the agent, take photos and keep every receipt.
