Hoarding Danger in Castle Rock?

We clean and restore hoarding scenes in Denver.

When my mother got out of the hospital, she wanted to return to her home in Castle Rock. I told her it would be elder abuse to let her go back to her home in its current state. My mother is a hoarder, and the house had become unlivable, and she became ill as a result. A friend told me to call SERVPRO^® of Denver West, and I’m glad I did. They sent out a team to help us clear the house and clean and decontaminate it.

Hoarding causes health and fire risks. According to the National Fire Protection Association, hoarding increases fire risks because:

• Cooking is unsafe if flammable items are close to the stove or oven
• Heating units may be too close to things that can burn. They might also be placed on unstable surfaces. If a heater tips over into a pile, it can cause a fire.
• Electrical wiring may be old or worn from the weight of piles. Pests could chew on wires. Damaged wires can start fires.
• Open flames from smoking materials or candles in a home with excess clutter are very dangerous
• Blocked pathways and exits may hinder escape from a fire
