Questions
What does a Professional Organiser do?
A professional organiser (or ‘declutterer’) works with you, in an area of your choice within your home that is chaotic or overwhelming. We work together to go through everything, and together we decide what to keep, recycle, bin or donate. Then I will re-organise your space in a way that suits you and your family. I leave you with simple systems for calm spaces.
Will you get rid of my things?
No absolutely not, we will work together on the declutter part of your session – and you will be involved in every decision. I will certainly help guide you, but ultimately the decisions are yours!
Which locations do you work in?
I am based in Bristol and Bath.
If you are further than 15 miles from me then a small fee for travel expenses will be applicable. Please get in touch if this applies to you and we can discuss your requirements.
Can you do before and after photos?
Yes of course! I will ask if you would like before and after photos, and I will also ask for your permission to use them in promotional material. This is completely optional.
My office/kitchen/home is very untidy, do I need to tidy up?
No please don’t! I need to see the space as it is currently, and to understand how you use it.
The point of me visiting is to help, and to improve flow in areas which are chaotic or overwhelming.
Do you need to visit me before my booking date?
We will complete a pre-visit call, so I can ask you a variety of questions regarding your project.
At this time I will gather most of the information I need, and I may ask you to send me a video and/or some measurements of your spaces if storage solutions are to be included.
If your project includes building work, or is large scale, I can arrange to come and visit you.
How long will a visit be?
Generally I book 4,6 or 8 hour shifts. If you’d like a quote please contact me and we can discuss your requirements and I can provide an estimate of time required to complete your project.
Can I leave you to declutter and organise whilst I go out?
No, I’m afraid not.
This whole process has to benefit you and your home and I need to ensure the systems we put in place are sustainable for you.
I will need you to be completely involved in the declutter part and I will need your input during parts of the organisation stage too.
You‘re obviously welcome to take breaks whenever you need to!
At this time, I do not work with hoarders. I’m qualified in decluttering and home organisation, hoarders often need specialist additional support, and I cannot currently help with this.
