What Is Extreme Cleaning and When Do You Need It?
Extreme cleaning is the professional response to situations that fall outside the scope of standard residential or commercial cleaning services. The category exists because standard cleaning companies decline these situations, lacking the PPE, containment equipment, waste-transport compliance, insurance direct-billing infrastructure, and Ontario regulatory training the work requires.
The Twelve Categories We Handle
- › Hoarding cleanup (Level 1 through 5)
- › Biohazard decontamination
- › Trauma scene cleanup
- › Estate cleanup and clearance
- › Water damage restoration
- › Fire and smoke damage restoration
- › Sewage backup cleanup
- › Mould removal and remediation
- › Asbestos abatement
- › Animal waste and pest contamination
- › Severe odour elimination
- › Squalor decontamination
When Families Typically Call
Most calls come during a crisis moment, when the situation has escalated past what a family or landlord can handle alone. Common trigger points across Ottawa include:
- • An unexpected passing or unattended death in the family
- • A fire, flood, or sewage backup that leaves the property uninhabitable
- • A rental turnover that exposes hoarding, biohazard, or squalor conditions
- • An insurance-required biohazard remediation on a covered claim
- • A family intervention with a hoarding relative that has finally become possible
