Cleaning up after animal hoarding means removing the source of odor, not covering it. Soaked carpet, padding, drywall and flooring are taken out, then the structure is cleaned and treated.

Most homes in Weld County are owner-occupied, with about 24% rented. Owners and their families usually direct the cleanup and decide what is kept. Rainfall in Platteville averages only about 15 inches a year, but dry air does not remove urine from subfloors. The source still has to be taken out.

A typical animal hoarding cleanup job includes:

  • Taking out carpet, padding, drywall and flooring soaked with urine or waste
  • Clearing of food, bowls, crates, cages and supplies left in the home
  • Removal of animal urine, feces, bedding and soiled debris from floors, rooms and crates
  • Sorting out personal papers, photos and valuables for the owner or family
  • Odor treatment at the source, including subfloors, walls and furniture

What Happens During Animal Waste Cleanup in Platteville, CO

The crew looks for waste, soaked materials, pests and structural damage. Findings are shared in plain words.

Papers, photos, medicine and valuables are gathered and kept apart from contaminated areas. The owner can name anything that must be saved.

3. Remove and clean in order

Heavy waste and debris go first, then ruined materials, then scrubbing and disinfecting. The work moves from the worst rooms outward.

Odor treatment follows cleaning, and the team notes any floors, walls or fixtures that need a builder. Pest control is recommended where needed.

Animal Hoarding Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Platteville, CO

What is the ammonia smell in the house?

It comes from animal urine breaking down. Ammonia irritates the eyes, throat and lungs, and it soaks into floors and walls. Opening windows helps only briefly, and the smell returns until the source is removed.

Will repairs be needed after cleanup?

Sometimes. Flooring, drywall, baseboards and paint may need replacing once soaked and chewed materials are removed. The team notes what it finds so a builder can plan the repairs.

Do the animals have to be gone before cleanup starts?

Yes. Cleanup does not begin while animals are still in the home. Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group should clear the property first, and the cleanup team can then plan its work.

Is extreme cleaning the same as animal hoarding cleanup?

Not exactly. Extreme cleaning is a broad term for homes in very poor condition, while animal hoarding cleanup targets animal waste, odor and damage. The two can overlap, and a team can combine them in one plan.

How long does animal hoarding cleanup take?

A single room is often finished in a day, while a full house can take several days. Size, waste, soaked materials and odor change the timeline. Pest control and repairs come after the cleaning.

Why does carpet or flooring need to be removed?

Urine soaks through carpet and padding into the subfloor, where it keeps producing odor. Removing soaked materials takes out the source. Hard surfaces that can be cleaned are scrubbed and disinfected instead.
