Before & After

Full house clearance in Perranarworthal, near Truro. The property was cleared throughout including loft, garage and garden store, with everything sorted on site into items for reuse, recycling and licensed disposal. Furniture the family wanted to keep was blanket wrapped, loaded separately and delivered to an address in Devon on the same job, saving the customer a second booking with a removals firm. Property left swept clean and ready for handover.

Recently we carried out a probate house clearance in St Erth, which included clearing 2 outdoor buildings alongside the main property. As always with probate work, we took extra care given the sensitivity of the job for the family involved. One nice touch on this one, the incoming tenant had mentioned they liked the garden as it was, so after confirming with the family first, we left the plant pots in place rather than clearing them out too. Both outbuildings were emptied and the site left tidy and ready to hand over. If you need a considerate, well organised probate clearance in the St Erth area, including sheds, garages or outbuildings, get in touch and we'll talk you through how we work.

Last week we handled an end of tenancy house clearance in Budleigh Salterton, and it was mostly bulky furniture that needed shifting. Think old sofas, a couple of wardrobes, a dining table and some bed frames the previous tenants had left behind. To keep the cost down for the landlord, we separated out all the wood so it could go for recycling instead of being charged as general waste. Job was done in a single visit and the property was left clear and ready for the final inspection. If you've got a similar clearance coming up in the Budleigh Salterton area, get in touch and we can talk through options to keep the price sensible.

St Just is one of Cornwall's most characterful towns, a former mining community perched on the far western tip of the peninsula, full of granite cottages and strong community spirit. This property told a different story: years of severe hoarding had left every room in a state of significant neglect, with heavy mould growth, decades of accumulated debris and a bathroom, kitchen and staircase that had become completely unliveable.

Our team carried out a full hoarder house clean at this St Just property, working room by room through the build-up to clear, clean and restore the space. The bathroom, caked in grime with a heavily soiled bath, toilet and sink, was one of the most striking transformations of the job. What had been unusable is now clean and functional again.

Other rooms told the same story. A bedroom coated floor-to-ceiling in black mould, a kitchen covered in filth with rubbish scattered across the floor, a damp and decaying staircase, all cleared and brought back to a habitable standard. The property's character was there throughout: original floorboards, granite stone walls, timber joinery and a beautiful arched window that had been hidden beneath years of neglect.

Hoarder cleans require sensitivity, practicality and the right team. We approach every job without judgement, working efficiently to clear the property while making sure everything is disposed of responsibly, salvageable items separated for donation or reuse, waste taken to a licensed facility.

Excavated soil is heavy, awkward and surprisingly difficult to get rid of, skips often won't take it, and most householders don't have anywhere to put it. This soil removal job in Leedstown, Cornwall, solved that problem quickly and efficiently, clearing a significant volume of excavated material from the property so the landscaping project could continue without delay.

We loaded and removed the soil using appropriate equipment, taking care not to damage the surrounding area or access route. Soil and inert materials are separated from other waste at our disposal site, with clean soil recycled for use in landscaping and civil engineering projects wherever possible.

Soil removal is a specialist service that many general waste companies won't tackle, we do it regularly across West Cornwall, from small garden excavations to larger groundworks clearances.

Soft demolition, the careful internal strip-out of a building before structural work or redevelopment, requires a methodical approach and proper disposal of the materials removed. This project in Trescow, Cornwall, involved stripping out internal fixtures, fittings and waste materials from a property being prepared for renovation.

Our team worked systematically through the space, removing plasterboard, timber, old fittings and mixed debris. Soft demolition generates a significant volume of waste in a short time, so we brought the right vehicle capacity to clear it efficiently without multiple return trips.

Materials were separated where practical, timber for recycling, plasterboard to a specialist facility, and general waste to a licensed transfer station. The site was left swept and clear, ready for the builders to begin their structural work.

If you're a builder, developer or homeowner planning an internal renovation in Cornwall, our soft demolition and strip-out service means you can focus on the build rather than the clearance. We work to your schedule and can accommodate early starts to keep your project on track.

This large garden clearance in Higher Drift, near Penzance, was one of our most rewarding transformations of the year. Decades of overgrowth had left the outdoor space completely unusable, brambles several feet thick, self-seeded trees pushing through borders, collapsed fencing hidden beneath vegetation, and piles of garden waste accumulated across every corner.

Our crew spent a full day on site using a combination of hand tools and powered equipment to cut back, dig out and load everything into our vehicles. We cleared brambles, ivy, shrub overgrowth, rotting timber, broken pots and general garden debris, exposing the original structure of the garden and giving the client a blank canvas to work from.

All green waste was taken to a licensed composting and recycling facility. Nothing was burned on site and no waste was left behind. The client was astonished at how quickly the space opened up.
