Earlington sees about 52 inches of rain a year, and damp air and leaks make urine-soaked flooring and walls more prone to mold and odor. With a vacancy rate near 30% in Earlington, many owners and lenders handle homes they have not lived in. A cleanup makes the property safe to inspect and list.
The work often covers:
- Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture
- Control of ammonia and dust with air movement and respiratory protection for the crew
- Clearing of food, bowls, crates, cages and supplies left in the home
- Safe bagging and disposal of waste, handled as regulated waste when needed
- Containment of the affected area so contamination does not spread to clean rooms
