How Crews Restore a Home After Animal Hoarding in North Augusta, SC

1. Walk through for hazards

The crew looks for waste, soaked materials, pests and structural damage. Findings are shared in plain words.

2. Contain the area

Affected rooms are separated from clean ones, and hauling paths are planned. This keeps odor and dust from spreading.

3. Clean from the source

Waste and ruined materials are removed first, so cleaning and disinfecting reach the structure. Items worth saving are cleaned separately.

4. Treat odor and plan repairs

Odor treatment follows cleaning, and the team notes any floors, walls or fixtures that need a builder. Pest control is recommended where needed.
