Ask Jennings.ie: House Cleaning after Bereavement
If you and your family are grieving after losing a loved one, you may find it very difficult to take on the responsibility of cleaning or clearing their room or residence.
Jennings understands what a difficult time this can be for many people, both emotionally and/or practically. We can put you in touch with specialist companies who can carry out this task in the most discreet and respectful of ways.
Professional Service at your Disposal
Sometimes, a residence may be in need of a professional sanitising in the event of a death. Services can be provided to the family which include sanitation, cleaning and professional removal of soiled items if needs be.
There is no need to distress yourself or family members with practical tasks that need to be done-what you may find upsetting may best be carried out by a professional service used to completing tasks requiring delicacy and discretion.
Assistance in Cleaning Home
Some people find it a poignant reminder to go through the possessions of their friend or relative after their death, a bitter-sweet reminder of a life lived, and an opportunity to dispense keepsakes or treasured souvenirs.
However, in some cases the home of the deceased may require a deep-clean and family members may find this too difficult.
Jennings can put you in touch with an appropriate organisation to orchestrate a thorough cleaning and sanitation of the dwelling. Only friends or family members may go through or distribute personal belongings of the deceased.
