"And good ventilation..." standing next to a broken window. That is what I like about British humour.
RIGHT! HAD to laugh because sir,what do you mean 😅
It's got floor to ceiling ventilation.
At least they don't have someone insisting on going through everything and refusing to part with anything.
I cant believe that's still 350k
Housing prices are insane and you could never convince me they're justified
Housing prices are shocking me as well in America.
Old houses that would have been worth under $100k when I was a kid 20 years ago are now anywhere between $350k to close to a million.
I'll probably be renting forever, because no thanks. I'm not going to pay $300k for a 2 bedroom house that's like 60 years old 👀
It's not. That's for the show. The house is not mortgageable, like he said, and needs to be basically rebuilt. They still can get about 200-250k for that thou, because of location and size.
The cleaning is always easier when the hoarder is not around. How sad that his illness has destroyed such a nice house.
So by hoarding, the man didn't only live very unpleasantly, but also managed to get the value down roughly 150.000 pounds! That's massive! Had something been done about the water leakage in the cellar right away, it might have cost 15.000 pounds. By not doing anything, the damage costs got worse by some 900%.
Pure laziness. Then his children became lazy they should have dealt with this long before it got this bad
@@glitterarmy89laziness????? Not at all!! It’s mental illness, nothing to compare
Water is the most destructive force.
It's impossible to overstate just how destructive simply the presence of water where it shouldn't be, is. Multiple levels, one of which they will have extreme difficulty ever getting away from... Mold.
Does anyone else find it amusing that we see the cleaners peering into the property and exclaiming how hoarded it is and they can't even step in . . . . . but the camera man seems to have made it in and is filming everything from the back of the hoard. Just me?
It s just a show 😊
on the American hoarders show they showed the camera man climbed up on a pile of garbage in the corner to film people at the door. so the cleaners likely dont want to scale an unstable mountain of trash, but the camera man will do what's needed to capture the scene.
@@SkySilver777 Yes, I've watched many reality shows where it appears people are walking into a room/scene for the first time but I just find it amusing the way it's relayed to the people watching.
The cameramen are doing Their thing. To each his own.
Every hoarding show…
Why is there always such a tight window of time to clear a house that has been sitting there for years?
I can speak to this. 🙋♀️ the task seems insurmountable before you start, so you delay and delay until some sort of external factor forces action. Then you have to find the time to take care of it, which typically requires taking time off of work or traveling a distance to take care of the clear out, so you’re marshaling your time. It’s also emotionally exhausting so you try to do as mush as you can physically while you have the mental energy. We took 3 weekends over the course of 2 months to clear out my dad’s place and it was a mad dash right to the end (literally still removing items hours before the new owners came to get the keys).
Probably for television…. To add tension and interest.
The TV crew doesn't show up until the previous 5 years of letters and warning issued by the local government have already expired. And then the cleaners are only there for a couple days - You get it done before they're next job is scheduled or you are cooked.
Money. People want everything done perfectly and as cheaply as possible in the shortest amount of time.
Because by the time it gets to this point, the city is made aware and it'll probably be condemned soon.
How can the neighbours be so tolerant? Crumbling adjacent wall, rat infestation, flooding cellar and a fire with exploding gas- and paintcanisters..
The people that do this work are heroes 👏 🎉
‘Reality’ (joke) show for which a whole lot of people draw their salary. No heroism here.
Magic of the Movies!!!! It’s all a shit show!!!!!!!!
Dream job
Anyone else just love Caroline's style/aesthetic??
I could not take my eyes off her! She seems to fit being on screen really well, her personality too.
😂
We have a 5 car garage where we had a lot of fun with restoring old cars for five years. It became so terribly filthy and cluttered with not only automotive stuff but everything else, from mom's furniture re-do hobby, etc. Last summer we all agreed on renting the biggest dumpster, and dump EVERYTHING except power tools. It took us 5 days to clean space out, results were awesome. We re-organized tool boxes with new sets of hand tools. It was an easy and relieving clean up, But I guess some people can't move stuff around for some reason.
It is a mental illness, they just can not manage
So funny: The neighbours saying only they have access to the basement, but then the inspector enters through a hole in the garden that is covered by nothing other than a tarp. Absolutely blows my mind! 😂
Couldn't they put a sump pump in there to pump that water out?
@Lulu.Squirrels- Why even leave it open like that? I don't even have problems with anxiety, but if I knew that my basement is filling up with water, I would probably suffer a panic attack every time it rains 😂
My neighbour is a hoarder. I have rats because of her. The yard is a jungle, there is a bathtub full of water in the yard (breeding mosquitoes) and under the house is packed to the gills with trash. I have had to go no contact with her for my mental health. For years I tried to be nice, to reason, to offer to help clean up. I have given up. It devalues my property, but she doesn't care one bit. Hoarders are some of the most selfish people.
I'm so sorry yep pure laziness
It's my biggest qualms in life. How other's people's choices are allowed to negatively affect others' lives and nothing can be done.
Time to file a report with the board of health.
Funny how you mention your mental health and then proceed to call hoarders selfish. It’s not selfishness it’s a disorder and people that have it struggle just as badly if not more worse than the people around them both mentally and physically. They jeopardize a lot being a hoarder they know that but it’s a disease. You can’t judge someone based on their lifestyle. If you care so much be a shoulder to lean on for your neighbor they need that more than they need you pestering them about their mess
I have a friend who is an organiser and is really good at helping people clean up and organise. But she doesn't come near hoarders: "They don't need my help, they need the help of a psychiatrist". I think that's true, you don't get to a hoarders house by just being lazy.
I watch these videos as a reminder of what not to be…my mother God rest her soul was like this after my father died as he wouldn’t have allowed this to happen. But it explained as to the reason why my mother did fall into hoarding..she lost her father to a heart problem when she was only 17 years old then and it killed her for years afterward. Sometimes this horrible mental illness comes and rears its ugly head after a major loss happens to an individual and gets out of control…I have had losses in my life as well but choose the opposite direction….to clean and get rid of stuff…it makes me feel better knowing that what I get rid of may help another person somewhere some how.
So nice that they were able to find those couple of special things!
Id love to see the neighbor couple renovate the place
He’s been in a home for years and they are just cleaning it?? So unfair for the neighbours. Ruined the foundations probably.
They probably didn't have the money or resources, i wouldnt even know what to do in a situation like that, do you?
@ soap and water is a dollar max.
Trash removal can get quite pricey. Even if you manage to take it to the dump yourself. That being said they shouldn't have waited years to do it.@@kittybusiness
@@kittybusinesswhatever issue can be fixed with soap and water can’t cause foundation issues
Get him hospitalized.
The end of the episode is missing. If I remember well, the neighbors will buy the house....
Yes.
Thanks I wondered if they bought it.
Lord
I felt bad for them sharing a wall with the hoard and I’m sure they had some damage done to their side from the other sides neglect
Those Dust Demons are ferocious! The American Hoarders show brings in dozens of people and trucks to accomplish what these women did in 2 days.
To be fair, that house was a lot smaller than most American houses. The hoard was smaller, too. And they didn't have a hoarder to contend with! They did work fast, though
My downstairs neighbour is a hoarder. I had to blind my windows, because it just made me ill having to look at her garden hoard.
Report her to the authorities. You can do it anonymously. (Jan Griffiths).
For sure she was violating the codes of how to maintain your property. If someone's behavior is disturbing to others, one may report it. They will come and check the property and demand things to be changed. One gets a few weeks or a month time and after the due date, there is a hefty fine per day to 'help' someone comply. If that fine is 500,- per day, that's 15.000,- in just a month. They'll comply alright.
@@douglasgriffiths3534 Thank you, Jan, for your response and for supporting me. 💞 It means a lot 🥰
@@douglasgriffiths3534signing your name on comments is super weird
Loved the “it’s like the Tardis” comment!
Whomever buys it will first have to pump the water out of the basement, put in supporting columns under the beams and floors. Then once the floors are supported, get the kitchen cleaned out. Sounds like the rest of the house has good bones., but needs major renovations.
what about the horrific deadly mold from the water sitting under the house for decades? I don't see anyone bringing this up. Mold remediation will cost at least $30,000.
@@pattiannepascual sadly that is a major issue. I hope the house isnt a tear down.
I makes me wonder how long the basement was flooded. Very nice house, except for the kitchen.
Exactly, how do you live in a home with a massively flooded basement? Can you imagine the mosquito breeding that has gone on down there?
@@wot4me2 And bacteria from contamination. I don't understand how no one knew about it for such a long time. They could've used a pump to get the water out, before it got this bad.
@@kathrinekerns8398 I know, I don't get it at all.
Imagine rhe the smell. The mold
Imagine, your house just falling down around you.
A British Hoarders!! I love it!!
It's so funny the difference between this and the American version. The American version has no narrator and the music sounds like it's out of a horror movie. This narrator and music sounds like the great British baking show
That is so dumb to only hire 2 people for this mess. You need a whole crew!
I'm surprised the house does not get condemned and tore down those other people on the other side that can jeopardize their half of the house as well..
That's exactly what I was thinking 🤔 and the fact he wanted 350,000 in cash baffled me
United States I have seen quite a few of these videos for the United States as well.. and quite a few of these hoarders were put into a nursing homes group homes.. because of their severe mental illness
Im sorry but the husband barreling through the wifes words with his own like that is mega frustrating, disrespectfull and childish? "No idc that ur speaking!! I wanna tell the things so IM GONNA!"
*Puts him in a chokehold*
I was sincerely looking for a comment saying that! I was sure I can't be the only person watching this and being irritated by his running over her mouth in every ingle scene they were in. So annoying! 😂
It’s sad when people don’t realize that by keeping all those things they are ruining their home.
I want to see a show about the reno!
Man, imagine being that passive that you don't ask to get your basement inspected as its flooding
I feel so bad for the neibours!
The neighbor is smart coz he wants to buy it. When it's full of crap the neighbor gets a real cheap deal.......The inside just gets gutted out if heritage listed so everything including the walls just get thrown in the waste. If not heritage listed then many people just want the land and will bulldoze the entire home with stuff in it.
Neighbours!
Love that dark blue hair with purple and the way you wear it
She's a holistic vocal coach
Really?
How could have the sisters let the father live that for so long? I think they should have called the authorities earlier.
He’s been in care for seven years.
@@createone100 The hoard is decades old
Basically someone can not be helped, if he adamantly refuses help. There were no children living there, that were in any danger. Freedom of filth.
@@gardenjoy5223you report them to adult services.
You try telling your adult parent what to do 😂
Great job ladies
This needs a huge crew to get done in three days, not just two lovely ladies.
I’m surprised the women aren’t wearing masks. 🤔
I helped clear a relatives house who was a hoarder. It was a 1200 sqft single story house with a basement. We removed literally 8 full 30 yard dumpsters, 90% of which was from the basement. We barely touched the main floor. We got one room like 80% emptied before we had to quit because the money for dumpsters ran out. The rest of the house is still packed from floor to ceiling with barely a path to walk through to the bathroom and the chair that the owner sleeps in.
Ok, I know you are in the UK but you can not put this on the market with all that water is gone and taken care of. That didn't happen in one week. It is ongoing for months if not a year or more. That needs to be addressed and then decide if the people in the other side of the house is going to want it.
right when they said the bedrooms were ready for the market i was like... what? lol
I hope the neighbors were able to purchase it and make the home whole once again.
this home has such beautiful bones! She must’ve been gorgeous in her state of original glory! ❤
the hole in the ground was nerve-wrecking for me
I'm amazed there isn't a sump pump in the basement. In the USA it's standard code that houses with a basement are equipped with a sump pump for flooding.
Did they just leave the kitchen that way? And the basement filled with water? I can't imagine someone wanting to buy a house like that. I would be horrified if I were the neighbors. I'd hate to know my house abutted all of those problems. And then again why didn't the neighbors get the water out of their own basement? Just, wow!
The inspector said it wasn't safe so I think they had to leave the kitchen or risk falling into the cellar.
When the couple were interviewed they explained they'd tried to drain the water before, only for it to refill, leading then to suspect it was a leak from the other side. It would have been absolutely reasonable for them to press for the others to fix the issue since it prevented them from using their half of the cellar and likely caused damage too.
@@sunshinem.7741 Yes, I would have been very unhappy to have my cellar full of water because of the neighbor not taking care of this problem. That could cause all kinds of problems to the foundation of the house. The neighbors remodeled their house very nicely and sharing a wall with that property would devalue their house. And they just put the house on the market with the kitchen floor collapsing? I suppose since the house was so vintage someone might want to restore it, but what a job!
And then to say it’s worth 350k?!?!? Absolutely not!!!
@@PippitheDruid Depends on the neighborhood. Might be one of those locations where it'll be worth a million once fixed up...
15:00 "It's like the TARDIS" . (Bigger inside than appears from the outside).
There's a huge hole in the roof talk about air conditioning😮
It's overwhelming to say the least.
This actually makes me angry. This poor house.
Why are they not pumping the water out of the cellar? Letting that underground pond sit and stagnate just creates wet wood above from the excess moisture, molds, funguses, whole mushrooms will grow, possibly a house hummuculous monster next...best to just rid it of the water
Aha 😅😮😢
Thee Tardis comment was golden. Those cleaners really need respirators. Good heavens the junk annd mold they were breathing in. 😷 Scary stuff.😮
Stanp collections aren't worth anything, mainly because people don't collect stamps anymore. I know from personal experience, after finding a stamp collection.
The sister with the cool hair felt like she could have been the host. She seems to fit being on screen really well.
Well there is no reality in which this house is cleaned up in 3 days. How stupid do the producers think the audience is??
It's half a house. And they put everything just outside for another crew to throw it in the skips.
@@gardenjoy5223 It’s a semi. Very common in Britain. It is a large living space. It would take 3 days to wash and clean it even if everything is dumped outside.
@@createone100 Three days to clean three rooms, when then those are already empty? Seems to me you work not too fast. Anyone else could do that in three hours, including the windows. So double that because it was extra dirty. You still have three hours for two good cleaning ladies. Tops.
I’d be more than a bit worried! lol 😊
That's not wet, thats flooded 😅
If this house was mine it would be shinning
Our flooded basement--A company dug a trench around the walls inside and made a French drain to the outside yard in a drain field. Repaired the cement.
It's like the TARDIS!!! 🤣😂😁
I'd like to see a part two.
6:56 A sump pump. That's what you need.
17:10. Such dramatic wallpaper? Look at what you're wearing. 😂
If you got time to braid your hair and dye your hair blue, you got time to clean your house
If you wanna know the price of hoarding, that episode makes it clear.
The expense of buying that shit + the expense of hiring people to throw the shit away + about 30-35% of the home value.
Ouch.
I’d like to see how it ended.
Oh wow...this is one of the worst hoarding situations I have ever seen -- how was there a fire and then they left the water?? HUH??
Perfect buyers if they were able to purchase it and renovate it so it back as the original one house. 💖🇦🇺
Where did the neighbours go? 😂
The house looks like a garbage dump!
350k for ... WHAT now? Half a House- that cant be lived in.... wowzers
Why would a three day deadline be set? There is no way two people can clear that mess in two days. I do not believe it.
I would have to have a respirator system and breather on.
Why didn’t the girls start cleaning it? They could have started the clean out before the cleaners arrived
Not their responsibility.
what's a semmie?
can the neighbour guy stop talking over his wife for one second damn
Its a lovely house, but i feel for whomever has to repair it.
Damnit, I'm dying to know about the stamps value and watches!
I don't know why I find these videos so entertaining.
real life viscera cleanup detail
350,000. WoW and I thought America cost alot
amazing how clean their suits stay. Oh thats right the real employes come in to do the real work
Already losing it at "We'd love to buy it" followed immediately by a shot focused on the giant hole in the roof. 💀
Phone card.? This must be a old show because when they got cell phones they removed pay phones all around the UK.
Well, at least you just have to clean, not to deal with the hoarder himself
Omg 😢😢
To know that these lazy daughters put their dad in a home 9 years ago and left the house like this is disgusting.
They just moved all the garbage outside
Yuck, that house is disgusting 😮
So... did the neighbours get the house for a deal or what?
That dump is not worth 300,000 lbs or 300,000 dollars. You have to stick at least that much into it to be liveable.
What's with this only 3 days to clear the house nonsense?
Why are they not wearing masks??? 😷
The dust and grime that they are breathing in must be horrendous.
"First wehave to make it safe to enter the house"
Puts foil board over the ladder instead of just moving the ladder. 🤦
How can anyone let their father live like that? It appears that adult protective services should've been called ages ago either by the neighbors or any family member who gave a damn. It's so dangerous for the entire neighborhood since the houses are so close together, one fire can burn down the entire block! If my Dad was hoarding like that I would make sure he got into a good nursing home and the place cleaned up and sold. It's clear that he had some type of mental instability. I hope his final years see him showered and clean every day of his life, with a good hot meal and clean accommodations and the medications he needed all along.
Sometimes the parent (or person hoarding), will put up a huge resistance to any changes...One cannot just put them in a home...
😊m in l😅
Pl pop
You think a nursing home may just take in anyone they like? There are regulations for who is eligible for a place in a nursing home! He's got to actual need nursing around the clock due to very poor health. Showering every day is real bad for your skin. Any dermatologist recommends showering twice a week or so, unless one gets very dirty from his activities. There is no known medication against hoarding. Am still hoping they find something to cure unrighteousness and laziness :)
@@LadyLsoundadult services will make the decision.
Where was his family no electric gas or water oh my how sad
Please wear a mask when handling mouse droppings. Hanta virus!!
They would use a drone, probably not a cameraman!!!
Give books n stuff to homeless
Hoarders are the ultimate selfish people. They really don’t care whom or what they hurt. It’s an expression of anger.
