This Cleaning Service Spent 50 Hours Making This Neglected Home Of An Elderly Widower Look Spotless

Published 4 years ago

After his wife passed away, this elderly man’s home in Dalton, United Kingdom, slowly fell into disrepair. But lucky for him, Emma-lea Dalton and her team at My Kind of Clean stepped up to help him. Along with her team, the woman spent 50 hours cleaning every nook and cranny of the place, making it look absolutely spotless. The cleaning service then posted pictures of the home before and after the makeover, and you can barely recognize it!

In their Facebook post, the team said that helping someone regain their peace at home was one of the best days they had at My Kind of Clean. “It’s been hard, tiring and emotional but more than anything it’s been so fulfilling to know we can help people in this way!” said the team.

See the before and after photos of the neglected home in the gallery below!

In a recent interview with The Mail, Emma-lea said that hopefully, her pictures will help people understand that they shouldn’t be embarrassed by things like this and ask for help if they need it.

The team had visited the man’s home before to assess the situation and it turned out that he had been living like this for a few years and had hoarded “two skips (containers) full” of stuff.

After his wife died, the man struggled to take care of the home himself and it slowly got to the state we see in the pictures. A friend of his then contacted My Kind of Clean and asked them to help the poor widower.

“There will be other people out there who are in a similar position, and I want them to know they should not feel embarrassed and ask for help,” said Emma-lea said. “We started as a cleaners that provide extra care for our customers, so it is nice to see that highlighted.”

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
