rbalzer said: I clean for a living, one of my clients tells me this long story about a man who lived in one of their apartments and got laid off, so he couldn't pay for necessary medical treatments anymore and became incontinent as a result of this. (we don't have many details)
It became a weird situation where he was living in squalor, not healthy enough to do much physically, and apparently has no family/friends to ask for help. He doesn't handle incontinence well and apparently the whole inside of this apartment is a literal shit/urine storm. I was told it had to be fumigated to make it safe to enter.
So some sort of health services eventually help the guy out and he get evicted or w/e. So now my client is wondering what the fuck to even do with this apartment, covered in shit for months as it is. So I've been offered way more than my usual rate to clean it, but I'm weary of taking the job for obvious reasons.
Anybody have experience with stuff like this? Was hoping somebody might have advice, for me or my client. Know a good way to clean caked on feces?
Makes you wonder just how common lives end in a similar fashion
You got this bro. I've removed 6 inches of sewage soaked mud from under houses before. I once cleaned up pounds of TP and shit that had flooded up under a deck at a bar on a busy weekend. First things first, there isn't much cleaning to be done. anything like carpet for instance has to get rolled up and tossed out. Hard surfaces can be hit with a disinfectant solution from a pressure sprayer(the kind people use for spraying bug poison) so you don't get sick and then squeegied and mopped/wiped/whatever. start by covering all exposed skin and getting some goggles so no poopie gets on your eyeballs. A respirator mask is ideal, but a dustmask with some vicks is better than nothing. Gloves! I like the PVC gloves that go up to your elbows for this kind of crap. you can find something at your local plumbing supply house, or a crappier version at home depot. you can wrap your shoes in plastic wrap. Get a blue tarp and roll it out in front of you as you enter. This is now your home base. When you are done strip off you soiled coveralls etc and put them straight into a garbage bag and toss them. Rub yourself down with some rubbing alcohol and get dressed into some clean clothes. congratulations, you are done.
had a feeling somebody on here would have experience, many thanks!!

Ask them to give you a wet/dry vaccum for the job. Just hose everything g down and vaccum up all the moisture. This is the best tool for horrible dirty jobs as such.

I make 20 dollars an hour cleaning, its weird. Seems way high to me but people are willing to pay it so I'm going to keep my mouth shut on that one.
Taking in more money than at least a few people I know who went to college/are my age. If only it wasn't so bad on the wrists..

depending on where you live, this guy is probably supposed to have licensed hazardous materials clean up company do this, so don't go easy on the price. if a building inspector happened to walk by the open door, he could make that guy gut the unit down to the studs. Charge plenty, and let the guy know that you know he's saving a grip of money.
