Emptying a home after the death of a parent or relative is rarely just practical work. We take on the heavy part, at your pace, and make sure what should be kept is kept.
We never simply empty a home. First we go through it room by room, set aside anything that looks personal or administrative, and only once you've seen it does anything leave. That takes longer, and it's the only way we're willing to do this.
At your pace
Want to go through it yourself first? We'll wait. We set no deadline.
Nothing leaves unseen
Anything personal or valuable comes to you first, even if it was in a bin bag.
Fixed price after a visit
We look first. Then you get one figure, with nothing added later.
Photos of every room
Before and after, so relatives who couldn't be there can see it too.
You don't need to have decided everything. A first conversation is enough to start.
Visit and conversation
We come and look, you tell us what must be kept. A fixed price follows.
Sorting with you or for you
You can be there or not. Whatever we set aside is discussed before anything goes.
Clearing and cleaning
We empty the home, fill the skip and clean throughout, ready for sale, letting or handover.
As long as you need. We won't call to ask whether you've decided. The only real deadline usually comes from outside, such as a lease notice or a sale; tell us if there is one and we'll plan around it.
With your agreement we take usable furniture, clothing and household goods to a local charity shop. For many families that sits better than watching everything disappear into a skip.
We work room by room and set aside anything personal or administrative: papers, letters, photographs, jewellery, keys. That box comes to you before anything is removed. Bags and boxes that look like waste are checked too.
Yes, that's common. Access is arranged through the notary, the agent or a relative locally. You get photos of every room before and after, and we keep the box of personal items until you're here.
It depends on the size, the volume of contents and the access: a third-floor flat with no lift is more work than a ground-floor house. After a visit you get one fixed price for our work. The skip is separate and booked directly in the family's name with our partner, so you see that cost apart from ours.
Yes. After clearing we clean the property fully, kitchen and bathroom included, ready for the inspection, the sale or a new occupant.

Request your quoteAfter a death, something often has to happen with the property sooner than the family would like. A lease runs until it's ended, a sale requires an empty home, and the heirs don't always live nearby. Kust Cleaning handles clearing and cleaning the property in Ostend and the surrounding area, at a pace you set.
We always work in the same order: sort first, remove second. Anything personal or administrative goes into a separate box that reaches you before anything leaves the house. Usable furniture and household goods go to a charity shop by agreement. On the coast it's often a flat that served for years as a second home, with heirs living in another province.
Practically, after a visit you receive one fixed price based on the size, the volume of contents and the access. We arrange the skip through a regular partner, but it is placed in the name of the family or the estate and paid directly by them. That keeps waste handling with a registered collector and shows you exactly what you are paying for. A full final clean follows.
