Restoring a homewithout the buildingfinding out.

We work in properties affected by hoarding, long-term neglect or a death. In Paris, in nineteenth-century buildings, with everything that implies.

What we do

Six protocols, run in sequence

A hoarded property rarely needs one intervention. It needs several, in an order that is not negotiable — you do not treat an infestation in a property you have not yet cleared.

Protocol 01

Clearance and removal

Sorting and emptying a hoarded property room by room. Documents, valuables and personal effects are set aside and handed over, never discarded.

Protocol 02

Neglect and unfit housing

Bringing a severely degraded property back to a sound, habitable condition — including lifting floor coverings that have absorbed liquids.

Protocol 03

Post-mortem and biohazard

Decontamination after a death, including late discovery. Traceable clinical waste disposal, and a certificate at the end.

Protocol 04

Disinfection and odour

Odour is removed at source, not masked. The test is simple: close the property for forty-eight hours and reopen it.

Protocol 05

Pests

Bed bugs, rodents and cockroaches. In a Paris building an infestation rarely respects lot boundaries, so the diagnosis covers the risers and the cellars too.

Protocol 06

Restoration before sale or reletting

Bringing a property to a presentable, documented state, with a dated photographic record for the owner, the notary or the insurer.

Why a Paris firm

The difficulty is almost never the cleaning

It is getting eleven cubic metres down from a sixth floor with no lift, through a staircase two people cannot descend side by side.

C1

Sixth floor, no lift

Much of the older stock has no lift above the fourth floor, if it has one at all. Volume comes down by hand, in loads the staircase allows. This is the primary driver of duration, ahead of volume itself.

C2

Service stairs and courtyards

Where a service staircase exists, the whole job can happen without a single resident crossing it. Its use is requested from the managing agent and the concierge in advance, never on the morning of the job.

C3

Skips and street permits

Holding a vehicle or placing a skip on the public highway requires a temporary occupation permit from the City of Paris. Where the street or the timescale does not allow it, we work in rotations with a compact van.

C4

Co-ownership rules

Permitted hours, lift use, protection of common parts, bin room access — every building has its own rules, and the concierge knows them better than the managing agent does.

How we work

What discretion actually means here

Unmarked vehicles

No logo, no company name, no phone number. No uniform identifiable from the street. No conversation about the job in the common parts.

One point of contact

We invoice a single, identified instructing party, agreed before the job starts rather than argued about afterwards.

A dated record

Photographic record before and after, list of operations, waste transfer notes, disinfection certificate. Sent to the instructing party alone.

Nothing invented

No fabricated review counts, no decorative certifications, no headline price. Where a figure is not verifiable, it is not published.

Start with a survey

One person, no team, no equipment, thirty to sixty minutes. Nothing to prepare and nothing to tidy — the state of the property is precisely what we are coming to see.
