1. The first call

Someone describes the home, the rooms affected and any deadline. No one needs every answer before calling.

A walk-through notes exits, utilities, water damage and signs of pests. Any question for a builder or plumber is flagged.

3. Clear what matters first

Exits, a path to the bathroom and the kitchen are cleared first. These changes lower fire and fall risks right away.

4. Sanitize and deodorize

Floors, counters, sinks and bathrooms are cleaned and disinfected. Odor is treated at the source where possible.
