What Our Clients Have To Say

Luke Jones

Enviropure has been cleaning my home for several months now. Their staff on the phone and in the home are courteous and professional. They bring all their own equipment and are in and out, but do a great job. I would highly recommend their service. For my family they take care of the burden of cleaning which lets us spend more time together.

Dennis Sheppard

Recently signed up with this company and they are great. We received enough cleans to say they are ALWAYS on time. They are in and out without making any disruption as well which is great if you’re in a work from home situation due to COVID . I’ve been through a few cleaners over the years and we finally found a company for long term. Highly recommend!

Kaitlin Mackenzie

Enviropure did an outstanding job cleaning our house before we moved in. The appliances look brand new. They covered every corner of the house, even spots we assumed they wouldn’t be able to reach. We’re very impressed.

Marc Langill

We’ve had carpet cleaners at our home and business for years. This is however the first time Ottawa’s Enviropure services were used. Gerry and Chris were punctual, professional and attentive to the smallest detail. The result was by far the best cleaning the carpet has ever had. Before they arrived, we were considering replacing the carpet with hardwood. However after they were done, it looks sooo much better. We are definitely staying with carpet as well as having this company back again. Based on their outstanding carpet cleaning, I would definitely recommend their services.

Marylin Sloan

I recently used Enviropure to do a deep clean, they did an amazing job, they were very professional and worked hard. They made the apartment look like new! They are trustworthy and I would definitely recommend them, I will be continuing to use them on a bi-weekly basis, if I could I would give them a 10 star rating. From beginning to end they were terrific. Thank you to Tina, Richard, Bob and Matt and everyone who worked so hard, what a great team and company!!!!

Deep Cleaning Beneath The Surface

When a home is completely filled with things that a hoarder won’t get rid of, it is easy to focus on the mess that you can see. After all, it is everywhere. What is most dangerous about these living conditions is what could be lurking underneath it all. When hoarding gets out of hand, surfaces, floors and even walls become a breeding ground for all sorts of mold and bacteria that are hazardous to the health of everyone living in the home. In many cases, it gets so bad that the best way to describe the odour in the home is “foul”. On top of the mold and bacteria, a hoarder’s home is a very inviting place for all sorts of pests including rodents, dust mites, and bed bugs. With these “guests” being present in the home, the risk to the inhabitant’s health is even greater. They will defecate all over the home which compounds the strength of the odour and hazardous materials in the home.

Simply removing a hoarder’s collection of things is not be enough in most cases. The furniture, floors, and walls of the home of a hoarder usually haven’t been cleaned in years. In addition to helping a hoarder declutter their home, Enviropure will also perform a deep cleaning, and call in pest control services if needed. That way, the home will become a clean, safe and liveable space again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Below are the answers to some of our frequently asked questions. If you have any other questions, feel free to contact Enviropure today.

What is hoarding?

Hoarding can be defined as an excessive accumulation of things combined with a failure to adequately sort and discard unnecessary belongings. Hoarding is an extreme case when your possessions can actually negatively affect your living environment and the function of specific household spaces.

While we don’t send our crews out for the intervention itself, we’ll be happy to come out to your home beforehand and give you a free estimate for hoarding cleanup. That way, you can compassionately let the hoarder in your life know that you want to improve the situation for everyone, and you’ve taken the step of speaking with a professional, experienced Ottawa hoarding cleanup company. This shows that you’re serious about taking the necessary next steps to undergo hoarding cleanup and start living a better life – for everyone in the home. For tips on hoarding interventions, you may want to look here – or give this a read. Hoarding is part of a serious mental health disorder, recognized by professionals as being a detriment not only to the hoarder but everyone living under the same roof. Our Ottawa hoarding cleanup crews are ready when you need us.

When our professional, experienced hoarding cleanup crew arrives at your home, we will be prepared to remove any and all items that you direct us to, followed by our performing a deep clean of every room. The goal is to restore order, cleanliness and sanitary conditions to your home. We want to help you live your best life. When we give you a quote for the hoarding cleanup project, the estimate will include our time and labour for junk removal as well as thorough cleaning services. Thus, hoarding cleanup is really a two-pronged service. First there is junk removal, then there is the actual cleaning. You may want to be present to (a) direct us which junk to remove, and (b) to move things around as items are being moved from the home, if you wish.

Some common signs and symptoms that might indicate a hoarding problem include:

  • Build up of clutter to the point where rooms become unusable
  • Excessively accumulating possessions that are neither needed nor have available space for
  • Difficulties with discarding and throwing our things – regardless of actual value
  • Feelings of excessive sadness when discarding belongings

This can really depend on how bad the hoarding has become, in how large of a space, and for how many years it’s been going on. Some hoarders have practically barricaded themselves in their home; this is a safety hazard, and thus can take quite some time just to break down into components and tasks. We’ve seen some hoarding cleanup projects take 6-8 hours, and others needing multiple visits to get the job done right (which, rest assured, we will). When we are at your home for your free estimate, we will let you know approximately how long the hoarding cleanup will take, based on the condition of the home. Our goal is to help restore order and a sense of normalcy for you and your household. However long it takes to do a superior job in hoarding cleanup, we’re here for you. Just let us know when you’re ready.

Ideally, yes, your loved one who is afflicted with a hoarding disorder will not be present for the hoarding cleanup. Despite how bad everyone else sees it, the hoarder often sees this activity as quite “normal,” and they may desperately want to hang onto their belongings. Perhaps the hoarder hasn’t left the home in quite some time. Seeing their “entire life’s work” taken before their eyes can be quite disturbing. Instead, we suggest that you take the person to a loved one’s home, or to a hotel or elsewhere while we conduct the hoarding cleanup at your home. If the situation doesn’t allow for your loved one to leave the premises, we understand. Our hoarding cleanup crews are experienced and compassionate. We just ask that you let the hoarder know in advance, so that we’re not at your house for an “ambush” – that’s not our intent, we really want to help, and we’ve found that hoarding cleanup works better once the hoarding intervention has taken place and the hoarder has been allowed some time to come to terms with how he or she has affected everyone in the family with the hoarding.

It certainly can. Often times, we won’t know what we’ll encounter on a hoarding cleanup project until we’re onsite and underway. That’s why our hoarding cleanup crews are professionally trained in not only deep cleaning and junk removal but in preparing for & dealing with biohazards. These biohazards can, sadly, include mold, bacteria, old food, urine and fecal matter and other hazardous materials. We have hazmat suits and other gear available in our arsenal of hoarding cleanup equipment, and we are prepared to wade through whatever it takes to get to the bottom of the hoarding mess and get every last item of unwanted debris, junk and other materials as part of a thorough hoarding cleanup process. No matter how daunting the task may seem to you, no matter how much you’ve been telling yourself “where do I start with all this?!” You can count on Enviropure for a professional and thorough hoarding cleanup in Ottawa.
