The Challenge

This residential property required a specialist deep clean following contamination from bodily fluids and persistent smoke odours. Key living areas, including the lounge and kitchen, were unhygienic and unsafe for continued use.

The lounge contained a heavily contaminated sofa and carpet, while the kitchen showed poor hygiene, a heavily frosted freezer, and signs of water leakage. Strong odours and bacterial risks meant professional biohazard controls were essential.

Before the Clean

Lounge, Kitchen & Conservatory – Before
Living areas were affected by bodily fluid contamination, smoke odours, and poor hygiene. Furniture and appliances were unsafe for use, and overall cleanliness had significantly deteriorated.

The Process

Our team delivered a structured and discreet specialist clean, focused on restoring hygiene and reducing risk.

Contaminated furniture and soft furnishings were removed and disposed of as biohazard waste. All affected areas were sanitised using hospital-grade disinfectants, supported by HEPA-filtered vacuuming and targeted fogging.

The kitchen was deep cleaned, the freezer safely defrosted and removed due to an electrical safety concern, and floors and surfaces throughout the property were thoroughly cleaned. Full PPE was worn throughout, with all waste handled in line with regulations.

The Result

The improvement was immediate.

The property was left clean, sanitised, and safe, with the kitchen restored to usable condition and hygiene risks significantly reduced. Contaminated items were removed, odours improved, and the home stabilised for ongoing care and support.

After the Clean
