The cat is "sleeping in the bedroom"... unaware it's been dead for 3 years.
I just laughed out loud. Literally. Feeling guilty.
@@thisismyusername6717 Maybe laughing at the comment is kind of like laughing at ones misfortune. I laughed at the comment as well, I've been in homes like this to do work.
That cats decomposed

The inside of that furnace is the cleanest area of that house.
Sadly this isn't a joke this is true.
Yeah because it burns all out

Best answer ever!!!!

They need to put her in a nursing home,call a hazmat company and let them put everything into a dumpster, clean and sanitize the house, fix it up and sell it or sell it as is
Love your channel. The fact that you know exactly what a shit show you are going to with her, but still do it, really says something to your character. You are a hell of a good human. It’s not like you are fixing to go broke, you could tell her to piss off and have a nice relaxing day without any financial worries. You go willingly into that disaster to help someone, maybe make a buck, maybe not.
I look up to ya man, and I’m not even in your trade, just a long time fan. Thanks for all you do, sir. You are far stronger than I am.
you help one person along the way, and you get rewarded on the next one. good karma for steve
I totally agree with this statement! God bless him
Very nice of you
Watching a video like this, you say to yourself “yeah, my problems are really not that bad”
Hey Steve! you ever hear the saying "I once complained about having no shoes until i seen a man with no feet." God love her. You gave her a few laughs and made her day. Another great video thanks JR.
That's sad that an elderly person lives like that. You are a kind soul Steve.
The Afghans and Mexicans, that Biden brought into the country, live like kings compared to this woman and our veterans.
@@409novaman Except this is clearly an elderly white woman commrade. Your first day at the Russian troll farm?
@@WTFIsThisGuyDoing233 You seem to be exercising your White Arian Privilege by bringing race into this, stop watching Fox News.
Thanks for keeping those that care, apprised of what racial group the elderly woman belongs to.
You’re very much like Creepy Uncle Joe, you don’t know who you are, what your saying or which porn picture you like best on Hunter’s laptop.
@@yz250a Move along then, don’t dwell.
Take that comment somewhere else
This is one reason my parents live with me so they don't end up living in a home like that. Really sad to see such bad living conditions.
yeh she needs help and support, very sad
Honestly, at that age I don't know if I'd rather continue living like that, or end up with people all over me. "We're here to help you" is a very frightening statement, especially with people getting more nasty, vicious, cold and vile. At best she would be a caseload. But worse than that could very well be hell on earth.
I know what others might be thinking about this post, but I have extreme trust issues and PTSD thanks to other people.
what's scary is the amount of single and worse, childless, people going into their 50s. We're going to have an epidemic of cases like this in 20-30 years.
@@ghost2coast296 Having children doesn't guarantee they will take case of you in your old age. My 99 year old mom has 5 kids but has a caretaker and lives alone. She doesn't want to be a burden to her kids although she has a kid to take care of her finances.
my kuds are just to busy
Nice work Steve. I feel for that lady. Sometimes we don’t know how fortunate we are.
we must all count our blessings everyday, and stay positive.
Probably the most disgusting creepy job I can remember was going on a service call to troubleshoot some receptacles with no power in a double wide trailer. The guy that owned it was creepy as hell. He was in his late 50’s but he had a shrine of of Britney Spears pictures plastered wall to wall, cut from magazines and posters in the bedroom room where the bad receptacles I was troubleshooting were. I didn’t want to touch a damn thing in that room. If you lit up a black light in that room my guess is the whole room probably would’ve been glowing. The house had a terrible odor to it. The house could have been on an episode of hoarders. I almost tripped over a mummified cat in one bedroom. I was getting some very strong Norman Bates Ed Gein serial killer type vibes. If he would have walked up behind me and startled me, he probably would’ve ended up catching a claw hammer to the skull. I thought for sure I would find his mother’s mummified corpse somewhere in that house when I went looking for the breaker panel. I literally couldn’t get out of there fast enough. When I got back to the shop I told the owner of the electrical service company I worked for, don’t ever send me there again.
Lmfao that's fucked up about the cat but I couldn't help but laugh at that. How long ago was this lol
LMAO, this has gotta be the funniest comment ive ever read
I feel like every trailer I go to is a shit show. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE...
Imagine being sent to Jeffery Dahmer's house.
@@hvacnerd4983 yup! I'm a handyman, and i refuse mobile home work. They're just too disgusting and built like shit.
I actually remember the video from last year. The brother destroyed the fuse box trying to put in the wrong type S fuses. What a dump; your a good man to have actually went in and worked in there.
Oh God, was that just last year?? I definitely remember the video regardless!
Yeah I went back and watched that one again, the house was no where near as bad and the bathroom walls were up but it was definitely on its way, also in the first video she said "I never let the cats into the basement"
Pretty sure I remember videos from way back when the mother was still alive with the adult “kids” living there.
Pretty sure Steve had to fix up the bathroom sink down there, because Jr was treating it like a kitchen sink with a garbage disposal.
The house was a stye then, but wasn’t the total rotten mess it is now.
@@catsfightsandsights1957 "I never let the cats in the basement." As the camera pans across a vast sea of cat turds and used litter on the basement floor...
@@catsfightsandsights1957 mind linking the video for us new folk?
That gives the phrase “its a shit show” a whole new meaning!!!
Steve Thinking: "I Picked a bad day to wear shorts..." Love you videos!
You deserve a lot of credit! I would have turned around when it came time to stick my hand through the broken window. I wouldn't have left a tag either. I can't imagine anyone wanting their name associated with that mess. You're a good man Steve.
I'd just have to walk away and burn my clothes afterwards. I professionally installed security systems for years and ran into this repeatedly. And on more than one occasion I refused service for this exact reason. No one ever thinks how much service industry techs put their health on the line to provide these types of services.
Why would a dump need security systems?
Bedbugs..you never forget the odor...
Like a scene out of silence of the lambs down there, next level nastiness you worked for that cash today Steve 🤣🤣🤣
“It places the lotion in the basket.”
well, the silence of the lambs house WAS WAYYYY CLEANER.
@@15205golfer sad but true
If she can walk and bend over she can pick up trash and put it in a bag.
No heat call October 4th was in the 70’s. No wonder everyone complains the price of oil is to high. That’s too early in a oil burner mechanics season to start with that 🤷
When I was a child we had a neighbor like this very situation but maybe worse. She was elderly and living in the home she grew up in still. Her parents long gone. My father was always fixing her appliances, heat, and car. When she died she left just over 2 million dollars to a cat rescue in San Diego. It made the local news. Turns out her father was a very wealthy geologist for mining companies and she inherited his fortune when he died.
“You don’t have to worry about ME taking you into the woods”. Lol
When ever someone says "excuse the mess" their house is usually spotless. People like this just ignore the conditions because they think it's normal.
"When ever someone says "excuse the mess" their house is usually spotless.". I work in the multifamily industry and can vouch that this is absolutely 100% true,.
Agreed.
She meant, "excuse the filth on top of the filth." She usually just keeps it to a single layer of filth.
Yup When go to customer house and say that i look around go what mess lol. When you have kids yes it can be at times hard keep clean but way different then this situation
Usually if my tenants say that, the place looks fine.
If it's actually a disaster, they just don't say anything.
Poor lady, hopefully she'll be able to make it through another winter 🙏. At least you got paid and it was just a t stat and filter change! God bless you, Steve, your a life saver for a lot of the seniors in the area!
@south968 I think he may have only charged for the service call, which was probably around $100.00 if that ! It's tough when you get old and don't get around too well, my mom has her good days and bad days, I hope that the lady who called Steve has some good neighbors, those stairs don't look too safe for her ! Noticed that she pulled out some of the carpet, possible trip hazard for her !
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn David, if I may...some HVAC guys are crooks for sure. But I don`t think Steve is like that. We saw the condition of that filter and the home in general. Disarray. I believe that Steve was actually looking out for the lady since she could not be counted on to obtain or replace batteries, and the old t-stat could have failed this winter and involved another no-heat situation and service call expense. I believe that he judged that it was time to replace that stat. Besides, the electrical box in that home was haywire and likely had compromised the old stat. I base this upon watching many of Steve`s v-logs. (Other than that, if Steve makes political comments on these presentations I believe that it is appropriate for you and others to as well). Politics involve (or infect) every aspect of life: especially HVAC),
@@craigharding475 yes most contractors are crooks!! I know what they pay for equipment I know what mechanics pay for the parts that they fix your car with yes they're crooks!!!
Knowledge is power...
@@philllsxga.7737 Thanks for the comment, Phil. It is a sad situation. And knowledge is the key to any negotiation, as you wisely point out. I have found that these on-line reviews and "Lists" are unreliable as well. The best source is family, friends and neighbors.
@@craigharding475 a friend of mine paid $700 to have a draft motor replaced in his furnace..
That's a business criminal!!!
I remember that house, with the 20 amp fuses jammed into 15 amp sockets, pills and cat urine smell. I wondered if they were cookers.
Those same boxes of sleeping pills are still sitting there in the same place as they were a year or two ago.
Highly unlikely.
That's not what you "cook" with.
Aye I remember that one too, all the sleeping pills… sleep like the dead or something Steve said, a knee slapper.
@@ryanroberts1104 lol
I love how he calls everyone out. Zero F's given
Very sad. Glad you could help her Steve.
Steve, you are a credit to the human race. I found your channel because I had an issue with my oil burner. Sure wish you were in my neighborhood.
Keep on brother...
you handled nice steve. she's on her last leg
Your community is lucky to have a good service Guy like you around Steve is working again mama next level!
Whoa Nellie, you should keep a few Hazmat suits in the truck for those jobs. You may have stumbled into the source of the next pandemic.
Thaks for giving that lady a break god will reward you in so many ways
My hat is off to you Steve. Alot of plumbers would have just walk away. You help people, keep on keeping on.
It's amazing your recording device didn't self-destruct from what it was viewing.
Bless you Steve, for helping that woman out.
I bet that when that RUUD was coming down the assembly line It had dreams of being in a nice clean home...
LOL
That furnace must have been very naughty in the assembly line to be sent to that house.
It breaks just so it can be junked.
@@frankmcdonough3351 I'm sure it sent 120V to the stat so it didn't have to keep smelling all that crap
One of your best Steve! Compassion, sad but true.. thank you for your service..
1. She can't take care of herself and someone needs to have a social worker visit her. 2. Steve will make plenty of money off this video.
Once the heat is back on, the furnace can resume circulating the smell once again...
OMG Steve, the comments you made to that lady and about that house, I couldn’t STOP laughing!!!!😂😂😂🤣🤣 It’s incredible how some people live.
That’s what depression looks like
8:21 I spit out my water laughing at that. I was thinking the same thing. 🤣🤣
"Cat shit city" made me spit my drink out
😭😭😭😂😂
Haha that’s some funny ass shit .. dang I don’t need to put on the comedy hour Lmao
Holy cow that's sad !
It’s more sad than it is funny
Your a good man Steve for helping her out. Sounds like she needs some help herself.
You are a saint Steve! Glad you could help her out, and even get paid! 😂
He is making money off of her with this video.
Yeah a real saint. videos her shit show of a house for people to laugh at. If only I had someone like that.
I can picture Steve’s face when she said she had $500. Like hell yeah, I’m not getting stiffed like I thought. Fly sh*t, tetanus shots, commentary had my dying on this one. Lmao
Unfortunately, welcome to the world of being an HVAC tech. Been there, done it(37yrs). Glad to be retired. The best thing to do is keep the conversation to a minimum, get it working, and hope to leave without any hitchhikers (fleas,roaches) and to get paid.
I agree I went to a service call a long time ago I about puked when I left I went straight to a gas station and washed as muchas I could in the sink blessed the sole that had left heavy duty industrial cleaner by the sink I used to got home striped on the porch took a shower immediately also had to use gloves
Definitely a sad situation, I know you have no relation to her but you should definitely consider calling APS (Adult Protective Services) she needs help.
Good thing it was a newer furnace.
Great video. Hundreds of dollars in cigarette packs on the floor
He was trying to scam her for money for a trip up 24 to Boston
I hope that lady gets the help she needs. She must not have anyone.
You're a good man, Steve! I couldn't work in a place like that. I wouldn't be able to concentrate enough to figure anything out.
You needed a scoop shovel for that job. Poor lady needs someone to come in and clean up for her. This must be Steve's Halloween special. :)
She can't put garbage in a garbage bag?
God bless you Steve I’ve had a similar jobsite in past
I can smell it yes I can all the way from Chicago
Steves standing in the middle of a landfill Mama..the cat shits the cleanest part of that joint lmao.I bet the cats in the truck hiding under His seat to move in with Steve.
You're flippin wonderful Steave...
I was just thinking the other day that my favorite video was the first time you went to this house and climbed over the mattress to get to the jacked up fuse box. Looks like things are worse than before!
Lol, that wasn't his first visit though! He installed that sink in the bathroom. The mother was alive and bought it and he installed it. Only to discover the drain was blocked solid and so he had to clear it. The daughter; this lady here, told him he could come and lay on the bed and watch tv with her for 30-minutes. That was her answer to his question of who was paying him! Lol!
@@abc-coleaks-info3180 lol I need to find that one!!!
Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again y’all. 👍👍. Nothing but the best there mama., lol. What a flippin’ disaster!
Steve, I do one good deed a day. Usually more. That, sir, was your good deed. Good man...👍👍
or...he did a "dirty deed,...done dirt cheap"......(AC/DC song)
@@15205golfer Yes sir. With Bon Scott...👍👍💪
Steve, You're right, that filter is not that bad....(it horrible) forget buying filters, buy her trash bags instead. Steve, you are the boss and king at what you do. I prefer to be a keyboard commando and relaxing on my sofa. Have a great day Steve!!!!
You are a realy great guy Steve. God bless you and miss Molly to keep the good work.
Damn I remember that dump. If I remember correctly you wouldn't even work on it last time until they got a electrician in there to fix that shit show. Your a better man than me Steve, I would take one look at that nightmare and tell her "Your going to have to call someone else, I'm not working in this mess."
Thank you for helping her out.
No matter how bad things are , someone else has it worse ... God job Stevie Boy ...
These are the best videos :) pure entertainment
Soon as i saw the thumbnail i knew what house this was...next level stuff Steve
Did he go here before ?
Filter is the cleanest thing in the house! LOL
LoL one of my fave Steve Lav customers! Haven't watched the whole video but I already watched a couple other videos with the same customer. I know it won't disappoint! You're a Saint for taking the call!
Could make a call to the local DSS, and talk to someone in Adult Protective Services, and have them do a home visit, and get her some help. She may need to be in an assisted living place.
There is an internet personality that lived worse than this. People called the Virginia protective services multiple times and they made a visit and wrote it off until the guy went to prison. They almost never do anything unless there is money or someone is in immediate deathly danger.
System isn't any better for folks necessarily, if she's happy that way and hurting no one its her prerogative
my dad was shoved in an assisted living center, he died 2 years later. lived super healthy at home, but just 1 fall and living alone warranted the state to take him.
@@B.r.i.a.n.1 That's an abusive situation for her pets and her LUNGS will fall apart with all the junk in the air from cat p00p and filth. I've seen people in much better shape who were removed for 1/100th the amount of filth.
Likely they wouldn't be of a lot of help other than to move her into a state facility and abandon her assets (to the state).
I work in home health care and see conditions like this more than I want. I try to get help but as long as the home owner/resident is termed "competent" then nothing can be done to help them out. Sad situation in my opinion.
I hate to ask, but what help is there for a person like that.
Don't know how you do it. Working in those conditions WOW. Unbelievable you are a saint.
Poor lady if I knew where she lived I would clean for free
Those white blankets with the blue stripe she has laying around the ground are called "ether" blankets from hospitals. I work in a facility that washes medical laundry. I wonder where she got them.
She said her brother just died in her arms. maybe that? What do ether blankets do?
@@mikestos3011 they are heavy weight blankets they use to keep your body warm in hospitals. They can heat them up too.
No heat call AND nasty conditions? Never clicked a video faster mama.
She's extra crusty today mama
Take a drink Everytime he says flipping and a bong hit for every time he says unbelievable.
Don't see it every time on my service calls, but I see that kind of house more than you think. Some times its people who really can't take care of them selves and sometimes it just people who choose to live that way. I help out the elderly and people with medical conditions as much as I can, but the lazy messy people get what they pay for. You are a good man Steve and it shows, thank you.
This was one of the gems in your crown, Steve! (That woman cussed on par with YOU). You needed a shovel to enter that basement. The cab driver story, un-fuckin`-believable! This one had it all...comedy, drama, reality TV, and spot light upon a typical New England old lady living in the Twilight Zone. Yet, you breezed through that nightmare of all shit shows like supernatural force of nature. Amazing! And fixed the furnace too!
That place is hell on earth for any cats and she needs to be sent in for psych eval. Clearly can't take care of herself and it's very strange Steve wouldn't involve trained people to contact her.
@@sidehustletips I don`t honestly believe that Steve would think it appropriate to get his customer in any kind of trouble that she is not in already. He adores his dog, and probably would not want to have someone take the poor woman`s cats away from her. Besides he did post this video, and documented the situation to at least 990 viewers.
I’ve had one like that. The furnace problem was giant cockroaches inside the purge blower. I had to clear trash away from the furnace to service it. I cleaned out the bugs and it ran fine.
You’re better than me. If I see a roach I’m out
As a apprentice plumber I have been to a house just like this and I still have nightmares!
I guess Steve got an early access into the horror house lol Happy Halloween
That Rheem furnace really classes up the place. Nicest thing down there.
Nice Job!!!! You really helped her. I subscribed :) I look forward to seeing some of your other videos.
Love your videos Steven! I live in Maine and find your Boston accent amusing 😂 keep up the great work! Cheers 🍻
I thought when you took the cover off the cat was gonna be dead in the furnace.
Poor lady, she's in a hell of a mess, it's tough when you can't cope by yourself.
Absolutely a disgusting situation which is also super sad. Bless you for pushing through the shit...literally...and getting this system back up and running.
Poor Lady...she clearly needs Social Services help.. Thanks for hanging in there long enough to get her furnace going again. Kudos to you, guy.
I thought at first that door fell off and hit the switch
To be honest, I would not be leaving a tag with my business name on something in that house, ever. Especially with evidence someone else has been tampering with the furnace. Cash payment - no trace of being there.
This is one of the only real videos I’ve watched in a long time. God bless u dude!
I’ve renovated a few homes where the p/o passed and it always confuses me as to how rough the homes get. Rotted roofs, rotted moldy walls, collapsed floor boards, bad foundations.
Oof. I could actually smell this place throughout your walkthrough video. Been in houses like this, and it’s always disgusting… very unfortunate that some people live like this.
I was going to say the exact same thing. And after you leave, you continue to smell the house the rest of the day.
Doesn't know if she can pay ya, but she sure as hell has 20 packs of smokes kicking around. What an absolute dump! "I should level the place.." Yes you should. 🤢
Holy cow really like your channel it makes me remember my trade did hvac service for over a decade before I became disabled from multiple sclerosis. There is lots I miss but this video reminded me of what I don't. God have mercy on your soul lol
This is one of your best ones you couldn't make this shit up I almost fell down from laughing it was so profound
"Doing one's best to relieve the suffering of someone who's existence is a literal 'shit-show, momma' ": = PRICELESS!!
Next week, the Archdiocese of Boston will pass-out 'holy cards' with "St. Steven of Dartmouth", his "I got one of those in the truck" truck, and the Jack Russell, rat terrier, and long-haired chihuahua, who have accompanied him on those missions of mercy.
Surprisingly these are houses I walk in all the time while working on the ambulance, tons of people live like this and see no issue with it from dog urine/feces to human, trash, moldy food, maggots, etc etc etc it go’s on and on not a single day where we don’t see a house worse than this.
Don't forget roaches
Poor lady. Obviously having a rough life. Your a good man Steve.
"whats up with all the cat shit?" That was great Steve
This is a situation where when you leave, you go through a car wash without your car. Then burn your clothes.
When you pulled the filter, that is flowing in the wrong direction.... I was thinking you would have found the cat that laid all of those deposits. Maybe said cat pissed on the thermostat. LOL
Filter was correct. Arrow facing the blower intake.
I noticed that too! The arrows should be pointing away from the fan. And how about that paper bag in the blower? Cat may HAVE pissed up the wall...male cats will spray urine for distances!
@@craigharding475 the arrow is supposed to point in the direction of air flow. That is the return duct it is installed in. The air is flowing from it into the base of the furnace.
@@erikj.2066 Thanks, Erik! I was wondering about that!
I wonder if there is a social services office in town who could send someone by. She's lost and can't find a way out. Very sad.
You're a good man Steve! Those are horrible, horrible living conditions. She needs more help than you're able to provide... :-(
Steve you haven't see it all, I worked 17 years in maintenance in HUD run housing authority projects.
