How We Can Help
A Respectful & Non-Judgemental Approach
Working With Housing Associations & Property Professionals
Hoarding Cleaning for Landlords & Housing Providers
We understand that hoarding situations can be extremely sensitive.
For the person living in the property, allowing someone into their home can be difficult and sometimes distressing.
That’s why our approach is always:
Discreet. Respectful. Professional. Non-judgemental.
We don’t make assumptions about how the property reached its current condition.
Our role is to help find a practical way forward.
We will discuss the work with you beforehand, explain what needs to be done and provide a clear plan wherever possible.
For landlords, housing providers and other organisations, we can also work with the relevant representatives to ensure the property is handled professionally and sensitively.

Hoarding Cleaning for Landlords & Housing Providers
Hoarding can present significant challenges for landlords, housing associations, property managers and letting agents.
A property may require more than a standard end-of-tenancy clean before it can be safely re-let or returned to normal use.
There may be:
- Extensive accumulated waste
- Pest infestations
- Rodent contamination
- Strong odours
- Damaged flooring
- Contaminated kitchens or bathrooms
- Mould
- Excessive belongings
- Unsafe access
- Biohazard concerns
Barnard Environmental Ltd can provide a specialist property recovery service, helping to bring together clearance, cleaning, sanitation and pest management.
We can work with property professionals to establish the required scope of work and provide a clear written quotation.

A hoarding situation should not simply be treated as a dirty house.
There may be complex personal, social or health circumstances involved.
Our role is not to judge or diagnose.
Our role is to provide a professional environmental service while treating the individual and their possessions with dignity and respect.
Where other professionals or support services are involved, we can work within the agreed arrangements and focus on the property recovery element.

Appropriate PPE, safe working procedures and risk controls will be used according to the circumstances of each job.
Where a property presents risks outside the scope of the work we can safely undertake, we will explain this and recommend appropriate next steps.
