Diogenes Syndrome: Who Is Affected?
This disorder typically affects elderly or isolated individuals, often living in Seine or in the surrounding communes of Val-de-Marne. In cases of bereavement, inheritance or sudden departure, the owner faces an unsanitary apartment or house in need of restoration. Neighbours often notice unpleasant odours, pest infestations or moisture problems. These complex situations require a specialised clearance operation. The cost of our intervention is partially reimbursed through the tax credit, a valuable fiscal benefit for families dealing with a difficult succession.
Our Services in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés
Our service covers the entire process: from initial assessment to final handover. Our clearance specialists, equipped with certified professional equipment, carry out each assignment with professionalism and discretion. The cost of each service is calculated after a free site visit.

Complete Clearance and Furniture Sorting
Our technicians perform a complete clearance of the property: removal of furniture, accumulated objects, bulky items and organic matter present in every room, cellar and basement. Careful sorting enables the valuation and preservation of personal belongings. Waste is sent to an approved recycling centre and appropriate recycling channels. Recycling each material is a priority for our team.

Certified Disinfection and Sanitary Restoration
Our disinfection service is carried out by a specialist team equipped with professional biocidal equipment. Pathogens, mould and bacteria are eliminated in accordance with current standards. If the property is infested, a full pest-control treatment is included in our intervention. Odour elimination restores full hygiene to the property in depth. A completion report is provided for the tax credit claim.
