I LOVE seeing the transformation of these houses!!! Laura, it's so great that you purchase these places that no one would want...have them fixed up and resell them!! The way you design them is just beautiful!!!!

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

Recycled! 👍

[@Claymorw]

It’s very lucrative fo do so, very

[@proseb4bros976]

This was such a cool format! You should do it periodically. The houses were absolutely stunning! 😍

[@PinkHipster]

I just bought an abandoned hoarded home! I’ve been feeling overwhelmed but this video gave me inspiration. Thank you 🙌

[@LEGATOSLAVE]

Update on how it’s going for you?

[@jennyhughes6597]

The lake house renovation is amazing!!! But is makes me sad to think an elderly lady lived there a year with no water in all that hoard and no one seemed to check on her. I enjoy the renovation episodes...keep them coming.

[@TacoStacks]

Crazy amount of work

[@JaniceWithTheTarlovCyst]

Laura, what you've done with these homes is really nothing short of remarkable! I wouldn't have thought they could be saved, but you've turned them into real gems. You've got a wonderful design sense and I'd be more than happy to live in any one of these, though I do have a soft spot for the Lake House. I'm with others when I say I'd love to see more of the transformative process. The before and after videos are spectacular. Job 👏 well 👏done 👏! 👍❤️ Cheers from 🇨🇦

[@henn1619]

Glad to see Laura again. Your renovations are awesome, you’re a great designer.

[@TheKayc136]

My Poppa was a builder, and when he passed away, the Vicar said he was still here as he had left a part of him in the craftsmanship in the many houses he renovated around the village. I love seeing the transformations you have done and how you have helped the neighbours, too. My daughter lived next to a hoarder, and the local council pest controller didn't charge her as he felt so sorry for her. In the daytime, the rats would sit quite happily on her little boys slide. The houses look amazing xx

[@adalavin8648]

Those houses turned out beautiful. The neighbors were sure glad you bought those properties. You're making a huge difference for Tampa one home at a time. Keep the great work Laura. 💖

[@noone-yd3zs]

Loved this format! I live in the Tampa area and have to say there are many of these homes waiting for the Cinderella treatment! Great work!

[@denaimurphy3369]

Your flips make my heart so happy!! Your company is so amazing and it makes me so glad that there are folks like y'all out there helping people out in some of the hardest times of their lives.

[@betterbetty3542]

These extreme makeovers are my favorite content of yours! Also, Laura you’re looking incredible!

[@TheNester.]

I just started watching these videos and have been binge watching them from the oldest to now. Laura has made quite a transformation herself! 😊 I know that it takes A LOT of back breaking hard work & muscle to do what they do. Seeing a home transformation happen right before your eyes is SO satisfying. They're probably in the best shape of their lives! Good Luck Laura, we're all rooting for you! 🥳

[@Med-hr4to]

Love this format! That wooden flooring in the lake house is particularly stunning.

[@nicolamurray6684]

It was good to see what you do after the clean up is done Can we see more please thanks

[@katefarr2036]

I cannot with the rats. Can’t do it. Everything looks amazing, Laura!

[@lasagnalover679]

Wow the transformation on these homes were unbelievable! You’d never know they’ve been hoarded unless you saw them in episodes from y’all. Very good job they look amazing!

[@kellyweber627]

Wow, what a massive transformation!! Laura, these homes turned out beautifully!!

[@nataliegraham9552]

It's a relief to see these properties in such better condition after the renovations. I like the decisions made to open up the living space, and the wall colors and flooring look great. I hadn't realized you bought so many of these hoard houses to flip, but it looks like you've got the system down to do it well, and hopefully pull in a decent profit. I'd love to see more of these follow-ups when you have a chance to share them!

[@robertshrewsbury9344]

Really appreciate you get things restored and functional.

[@alisahausgaard973]

I loved this format! Ty for not only helping the people that caused this but also restoring/saving homes to be beautiful for a new family!

[@VeeRodrigue]

I loooooove all the home renovations, Ms. Laura! A modern country home look this one was :)

[@tiffybee6293]

I love Thad!!!!!! He is definitely my favorite. Love his personality and how he is always so positive and uplifting! Fiona is my second fave! Sidenote...has anyone else ever realized that hoarding houses usually have an array of cleaning products?

[@0929fabiana]

You are so right... maybe deep inside the intention is to clean it up but whatever problem they do have just stop them to use it.... sad.

[@tiffybee6293]

@@0929fabiana my heart breaks for the people who get in this situation. Like you said, they probably want to fix it but get so overwhelmed that it deters them from starting.

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

Good intentions . . .

[@manyhats3846]

Ive noticed! Reminds me of me lately! Not a hoarder yet! It might be because we want to get cleaning, we mean well and all ect, but we got that friggin paralysis!! This makes us sad! Some dont understand. Also perfectionism makes us like this. Lately ,I stop myself stocking up. Its hard! I dont have a car, so when you get a ride you take advantage of hoarding the heavy bottles and jugs home. You might get cleaning, and run out. By the time you get fixed up to walk to store and carry back stuff, your tired! Cant get going again. ect

[@tiffybee6293]

@@manyhats3846 set a small goal, like a small room or bathroom, and give yourself a date. For example, by Thursday I will have the half bathroom clean. Then take a break for a day or two and pick a new room. I have a psychology degree so I understand the anxiety and stress of it all. If you ever needed outside help I'm sure there are services in your area that could help you clean out and organize. However don't push yourself into a mental break either. Your mental health is just as important as your physical. Good luck and you will get it done!!!

[@amystaggs5303]

Thaddeus, please tell me HOW you have such a positive,THANKFULL attitude at ALL times??????

[@jsloan1984]

I really have to give each and every person involved in the Spaulding Decon so much credit and appreciation for what they all do. I’ve dealt with remodeling in places but never dealt with hoardings or death situations so I applaud and appreciate each and every employee for doing what I know I won’t have a stomach or tolerance for.

[@eileenbass952]

That was a fantastic thing to do Laura, thank you for sharing homes you have bought.

[@garycurry4600]

I enjoyed the updates. I hope you can do more of these. The after pictures are amazing!

[@marriedagain2008]

I always wondered if neighbors to these type of properties have an infestation problem. Your team turned these places into lovely homes. Laura for interior design. You have good taste!!

[@ronniemiddlehurst8096]

Wow!! The transformations are unbelievable! Well done on your hard work guys

[@barbbonam]

I LOVE renovations! I wondered about this house when you mentioned last year that you had bought it!

[@sleepyoldtiger372]

Omg Laura, you make such beautiful renovated homes!

[@jadestone8552]

First time to watch your channel and I appreciate you turning these beautiful homes back into what they should be.

[@MegPank]

This channel somehow popped up in my recommended feed a couple of weeks ago, and I've been catching up ever since. The home transformation videos are amazing! The work done on the rat house was so great that it almost makes me want to move to Florida.

[@theojjuiceisloose]

HELL YEAH NEW SPAULDING DECON VIDEO BAYBEEEEE I LOVE YOU GUYS

[@valerief1231]

Laura, I wish you continued success with your company and vision, you are instrumental in forging goodwill in your community. I will never forget the series of the Winner of the free clean up, you took such personal interest in her and her cats. 💖

[@fate_clotho9596]

@SpauldingDecon Thank you! 💜 I thoroughly enjoy seeing the completions of the renovations! And how gorgeous they are! Wow! I'm not surprised at all at hour fed up those neighbors were with the Rat House. I would be, too. Laura, you created an incredible company, with amazing standards, and your employees are just simply wonderful, and empathetic! Keep up the truly hard, but important work you all do!

[@AliciaLicorish]

OMG! This is one of my favorite episodes!!! Please keep it up!

[@patriciawilliamsn9605]

So glad you were able to do this. Homes were lovely once you were done

[@silviafigueroa8813]

This team is amazing working together even laughing a little making each other feel right Great job cleaning out these places

[@LilLoo226]

Fascinating. It's tragic to see that people live this way, but the effort to rehab these places is amazing!

[@philipbrazill2155]

Wow!! Those houses look incredible now. What a night and day difference. If i lived in Florida and was on the market for a house i would really be interested in one of those properties. Nice job Laura and Spaulding decon.

[@Jane_Dow]

Congrats to you & all your workers ! You have made So many lives better with all your hard work. You know you've done well when, not only the next door neighbors thank you but people from down the street ( etc ) come to tell you what a Great Job you've done !!

[@megantweet5013]

Great job! I love getting to see a horrible thing become something beautiful, well done! Please post more like this!

[@suzettefree129]

Loved seeing the rehabs of such a tragedy. You guys do a great job.😊

[@laraoneal7284]

I so respect and admire the Decon ppl who do this job. God bless them.

When we moved out of our home in 2004, we found some green food colouring with "Best Before Feb 1984"... 🤪✌🏽🇬🇧💜

More Reno , stories please!! You guys are amazing ! True helpful people! Doing right for the community!!

[@deniseroe5891]

Amazing transformation. I would love to work with you doing this, but I'm in Texas. I have never ceased to be amazed at a hoarders house and that people actually lived in the mess. It's unbelievabale what destruction an bunch of rats can do. Awesome job as always. God bless..

[@nicolerondon609]

Can we get more episodes like this. 👍

[@mylynnj3792]

I love a good before and after! I hope you're able to do more videos like this. It would be a great addition to your already interesting content!

[@NancyTatum]

This was INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Thank you!!! Hopefully you'll be able to share more of transformations of these Horror turned Disney homes!!!

[@mariewintersteen7098]

Laura, I can't believe your crew threw out a perfectly good colander! Lol great job!

[@itsacarolbthing5221]

What does it say about society that an elderly person is left to live like that, with no water and no one to check in on her? It's an absolute disgrace.

[@alb12345672]

Some people want to be left alone. You can't force beyond their will.

[@1whitkat]

You did a gorgeous job on the Lake House. The exterior colour is perfect. If it weren't in Florida it would be my dream house. Well done. Thank you for sharing.

[@sondrainaz3895]

WOW! Amazing job Laura and crew.

Me and my wife brought a horders home once for 400k below value. We found photos of what it looked like in the 80s it was so nice yet sad to see. It's now our home and I don't regret the 2 years of work it took us to make it look like it does now.

You’re doing such a great thing! Not only you’re helping those people who have to live next door to those filthy houses, which is huge on it self, but you also giving a new life to those houses, otherwise they would have been left abandoned and rotting, like scars on a city’s body. God bless you!

Great Job!! I can't wait to show my Mom who lives in a nursing home. She loves this stuff!!

[@amecocoa3829]

I love this episode. Would be great to see more like this. Some of the home flip shows the decorating is so off the wall. Your decorating style is classic and can be customized by the new resident. Happy neighbors that I am sure will remember your company name if they ever need one of your other services or be able to refer to you if someone else needs your service. Great job. (Had to laugh when you were in that closet talking about the wall holes, you dear Laura are not in the closet, you are a role model of success.❤

[@cc.s3850]

Hello all of you have done an amazing work! The houses are really very beautiful. It is still beyond my understanding why people can accumulate so much rubbish, grime and dirt, why they neglect the living quarters so much? Is this a mental health issue? I have had 1 tiny flying cockroache in my livingroom/kitchen last year. (Because of your videos. 🤣)I cleared out all furniture of my whole apartment to the balcony, removed everything i could like kitchen drawers, the base panels of the kitchen, ofen, (the kitchens in Austria are build different, all appliance are build in) i cleaned every nook and cranny, cleaned all dishes, purchased big glas jars to keep my food. It took me 3 days to clean everything. In addition i sorted out a lot of stuff. Now i feel safe. Best regards from Austria Chrissy
