What the customer needed
This was my first full house hoarder clean-out. A real estate group owned the house and wanted to renovate it, so everything inside had to be removed first. Sofas, old gaming consoles, and every room filled with things.
Then the job grew. They asked us to do the demolition too, so once the house was empty we had to take out the drywall, tile and flooring as well.
The clean-out
My brother and I carried load after load out to the truck. We filled the trucks up to the brim, in my words "at least four to five loads of stuff." Getting all the junk out took us about a day and a half.
We work room by room on a house like this. Clear a path, empty the surfaces, then get the room down to the floor. The truck photo from this job shows what that looks like: furniture and junk loaded to the top, ready for the next run.
The tear-out
In the second half of the second day we started the demo. Drywall came out of the back rooms first, then the rest of the house. Tile, flooring, wood and drywall all went, and the room that had been piled with black bags and drywall scraps ended up swept empty.
By the end the interior was stripped down to the studs and slab, ready for the renovation crew. Our demolition is non-structural tear-out. The owner's contractor handles anything structural and any permits.
If your house looks like this
We remove belongings, furniture and debris, and we can do the tear-out after. We are not a cleaning or remediation company. Text photos of each room to (754) 249-1015 and I will give you one flat price for the whole job. Payment is after the job, and if it comes to $1,000 or more I ask for a 50% deposit up front.
Nobody gets judged on these jobs. A full house happens for a lot of reasons, and whoever is calling, an owner, a family member or an investor, my job is just to get it cleared and ready for what comes next.
