FREE CLEANING FAIL 😱

- Hi! I’m Aurikatariina and I clean my followers homes’ for free! ❤️
Now we are going to continue with this house of horrors! This one truly gave me nightmares since everything was broken, nothing got clean and I just felt pretty hopeless. But of course I was also having fun!! Ralph’s relatives were super Nice and they helped me a lot. His brother tried to fix everything he possibly could but I still think it would be for the best that no one lived here anymore. As you can see from the video we discovered so much water damage and damage over all that it is such a health risk to even be here. I was scared that the floor might give in because it was rotten and had holes in it. There was also rat droppings everywhere in the kitchen. The kitchen tap was leaking but not into the sink. It was leaking in between the sink and walls. The floor underneath the sink had dropped and I think it is just a matter of time until the floor really gives in. But I understand they want to keep the house since they built it themselves.

You made the home slightly more livable for a man who doesn't want to leave. You made it easier for paramedics, inspectors, and social workers to get in and do their jobs. You made it slightly more bearable for that boy whose still stuck in that situation. Thats not a "fail" at all. You did your part.
Good point
Agreed. Everyone in this situation needs help, and this is a good start. Hopefully they can get Ralph and his son - and of course the dog - somewhere safe
This!
She made it easier to demolish.
And or to replace everything.
I am very concerned that the family thinks this is tenable/savable, and I am also very concerned that the ex-wife would send her son here with no lights, sewage, or safe food preparation.
Right???? This infuriates me! I would NEVER allow my child to live in such squalor and why on earth are they trying to find new Doors when the floor is caring in due to rot, and why install new appliances when the entire electrical system seems dodgy???
This is what I was going to comment. How are people not concerned about the literal child. I have seen so many comments worried about the dog. While I agree even a dog shouldn't be living in this condition, the human child with another parent?! Wtf... I try not to judge when a whole family is living in a mental illness home, but the mother apparently has at least a home with functioning appliances. Why is she allowing her child to go there??? Even if my kids were worried about the other parent and wanted to stay there to take care of them, it is my responsibility to keep them safe and healthy. This is so sad.
This is everything I wanted to say! God bless Auri for trying, but in THIS single case, this cleaning is just giving false hope to a few seriously mentally ill people. That poor child!!!
Esa familia necesita ayuda psiquiatrica y el niño y el perro deben ser rescatados de ese lugar
@@sueschwartz7296it's every case she does. She enables them and without therapy it won't change. She's cleaned for the same people before. Not this family but another girl.
If the toilet, sinks, appliances, heat don't work, the home should be condemned. That's so sad that people live there.
Y quién pagaría por eso? Con que dinero podrían construir una nueva? Tal vez solo conseguir el dinero para arreglar la calefacción, el agua y la luz
Nothing seems to work, no sink, shower, stove, microwave, toilet, not even the heating system and with -20°C outside, idk how people live there, honestly. It more so feels like a really bad joke to have her clean the house at this point, because literally everything seems so grimy and dirty.. it is wild to imagine, that someone's truly living there imo.. HOW!?
In Ohio it would. No water is all it takes
The poor dog should be taken to a shelter. Why do people always have animals and children who live in these conditions???
Eh. That stuff's all fixable. Replace/repair the dishwasher, tighten the pipes, fix the toilet floater, new radiator. I'm more concerned that the subfloor and beams are suffering twenty years of rot. If anything that's what would condemn the house.
You know when *Auri* says it’s not livable and needs to be condemned, it’s REALLY bad 😱
She's not the world's preeminent cleaner--there are others far better qualified---though she's good at it. But yes, if someone who cleans for a living says a house or apartment should be condemned, then it's time to contact the housing authorities and let them know what's going on. I don't understand why she even got so far into the cleaning without calling the authorities---that should never have happened!
@@jb6712 I like to watch her videos, but yes, she shouldn't have touched this house and contacted authorities instead. If it's rotten from all the water, it's also moldy, which is very unhealthy, if floors are about to break under you, this house is dangerous to live in. Nobody, and especially not a child (and no pet, like the dog, that also seemed to be chained outside, and if this wasn't just for the cleaning, that's animal abuse) should live there.
The floors will collapse from rot. THe fact it is freezing is probably the only thing keeping it standing.
The saddest part about this entire situation is that Ralph isn't even the only completely delusional person in this scenario. The ex-wife is just as delusional and I'm not entirely convinced the brother isn't as well. Someone please adopt that 17 year old... get him some intensive therapy... and have him take that dog with him.
Yeah, installing a new washing machine in that house seems delusional to me.
I bet that she lives in a dirty hoarder house also. She obviously isn't competent to be the caregiver to this 17 year old. He needs to get out and join the military after high school. It's his only way out of this horrid situation.
Exactly! The three aforementioned adults seemed to be so unaware that if there's no lights, no heat, no decent running water - why on earth are they thinking some new doors and a washing machine is gonna help?! There'd be better living conditions out in the woods, a campfire, and a small cabin or tent! God, even a burrow!
Пса обязательно надо взять
Washing machine wouldn't have been my priority, those leaky taps and plumbing work would have been. Then replacing those floor boards. A lot of work has to be done if they really want to save this house fir the sake if jjst living there, rent free as nobody would buy it. U could sell the plot of land cheao so others can demolish and rebuild but they don't want to lose money it seems and rather live there themselves... sadly at the cost of ur own sanity. They didn't realise that's a much bigger price then cutting ur losses and selling it for cheap
The point here is not to make this house liveable (which it clearly isn't) but to show that 17 year old boy that there a people who care, and are willing to help without judgement. You did a wonderful thing for him. ❤
Sadly, there are times when Social Services need to be alerted to dangerous living conditions like this. I hope at least one of the adults there is doing the right thing and calling them, even it’s YOU, Aurikataeina. It 100% needs to be done. There is no excuse for anyone to allow this to continue, get the boy and the dog out and then find a suitable place for the father where he can get the help he needs. 🙏💔🙏
100% agree.
She’s said many times she will never call social services or child services on anyone. Luckily, the child is 17 so he can move out very soon.
@@Sleep2Dream ~ It’s not just the child needing help. And for sure, she has an obligation to call to get the dog, the child and the man the help they need. It’s the right thing to do.
@@sueschwartz7296 ~ Thank you. I feel she owes it to them.
@@angelforanimals7809 she has no legal obligation. She is not a mandated reporter.
This house needs to be reported to the local authorities and condemed. Nothing should be living in it. I'm glad you tried, Auri. You always show us how other people struggle.
This cleaning is the first one that is making me feel really bad. 😅 The living conditions... don't excist! Just to think that a child has been living there for who knows how long... I don't understand how the mother let the son live there, if she knew the condition and that her ex is not capable of keeping the house in condition...
I'm genuinely wondering how is her own home, as she doesn't seem to see a problem in this one...
I mean the faucet has been leaking for 20 YEARS and they didn't think to have it fixed. There's some severe issues both parents share that led to this house being destroyed. Maybe the mother's house is just as bad.
Me too! I felt bad watching last week’s video
Mi unica pregunta es porque servicios sociales o infantiles del estado no se llevaron al menor de edad de ahi
@@luisafernandasabogal8560they don't know I geuss
This cleaning has brought me to tears. Imagining the teenage son trying to live there all these years where you can't get warm, can't get clean... there's indoor plumbing but water only goes where it does damage and doesn't work to do its job like taking away waste. It's overwhelming how absolutely nothing works.
This house is an accident waiting to happen... Water running through electrical appliance, sockets hanging from the walls. The ex-wife is completely delusional thinking it could be salvaged. Yet, she won't have to stay there after the cleaning...
You did an awesome job, given the circumstances.
My guess is that she knew her husband was a hoarder and she moved out but left the kid behind. And she doesn’t want the husband to live with her, so she’ll do anything to keep him in that house.
this house looks like something you would see on HGTV Bargain Block. Rotten, moldy, water supply and sewer needs a complete redo, electrical system same. I mean Bargain Block did fix homes like this but it cost them 50 k or more. Someone might by this house for 1,000-5,000 if they know how to fix all the endless issues but no one will want to pay anything more that that.
@@allalala9916yeah, it’s probably cheaper to pay a demolishing crew and start from scratch than try to save the foundations. if they built it themselves and let it get to this state, i’m willing to bet they did a terrible job…
@@businesszeus6864 I agree, sometimes foundation repair alone can be close to 50k
I'm wondering if the son is hers, as he's only 17 and she left 20 years ago.
If there's been a water leak for that long, this house will need to be taken down to the studs and checked rigorously for black mold and other contaminates. I'm with you, though. This house will probably need to be demolished and rebuilt or just sell the land after the demo. Poor family. TYSM for helping, though!
Exactly what I was thinking. Technically she needs to be wearing protective gear as well
Si, es peligroso vivir ahi en esa casa el moho puede matarlos y mas si se ha filtrado el agua hasta los cimientos de la casa
I had a hidden mold issue in an apartment I rented; within one week of moving in, I was hospitalised because I was getting headaches, losing consciousness and after I got out of the hospital, the neighbour in the apartment beside mine told me that there was mold in her unit too. She had someone from the Canadian government come in to test the air quality and they uncovered so many problems. I moved out the next month and tried to sue the company who owned the building. The law society of upper Canada went on strike and I didn't pursue it, though I really wanted to see it through. I had 2 notes from Doctors stating that my unit was unfit to live in due to mold but the company who owned the building said that I abandoned the property and charged me 3 months rent. I was going to wait for my day in court but my Father paid the 3 months rent; I was livid with him for doing that.
This is a tragedy. The father obviously has severe mental problems. Why is the son living with him? Why doesn't the mother step in and take control of this situation?
and where is the social services in all this
Right! So many open question!
Someone suggested it might not be her son, since she left a long time ago and the son is 17.
Also, if the son wanted to stay with his dad and perhaps hardly visited her...or.. well, there is something extra going on, I feel like the mother was exhausted and not motivated to clean her exes house and I cannot blame her.
That teenage boy is going to have a lifetime of PTSD from this house.
IT IS NOT SAFE FOR ANYONE TO BE LIVING IN.
Truly. Can't understand even HOW he survived that environment.
agreed
@@Moma_spam2 genetic 😂
What happened to him? did aury call the social services?
Its sad, but not everything can be salvaged. Some houses are too destroyed. The family would be better off moving, ESPECIALLY for the sake of the 17yo.
Agree!
But who would accept them as tenants? And how could they buy a house if they can’t afford to fix the house they’re in? After owning the house for 30 years, they’ve probably come close to pay it off.
Unfortunately, it's apparent they just don't know how to clean or take care of themselves. What about their own bodies? Those things are not automatic. And it's not like you can force that on anyone. It will be a struggle but, I just hope the 17yr old reaches a point where he experiences the health and happiness that comes from being clean. It's definitely worth it.
@@graceg3250 eh, no need to buy a house. in finland, landlords aren't legally allowed to pry into inhabitants' lives beyond basics like social security number and credit rating (which works differently than, say, in the US). bigger housing companies in particular don't give a shit. if you skip the apartment showing and sign your lease digitally, you don't even have to show your face to anyone. how would they know there could be a problem unless googling their names turns something nasty up? and in any case we have v low homeless rates here due to a housing first system. these people had other options, but for whatever reason they chose to stay. in fact i don't think it's necessarily about money at all, cos what broke family would buy a brand new expensive appliance, find that it doesn't work, and then just leave it there instead of getting their preciously needed money back? if they can afford to do that, they can certainly afford to fix the leaking tap. but they didn't. aside from the son (who iirc was the one who asked for the cleaning?), i suspect these people are so deep in denial that they don't even process any of this as abnormal
I'm surprised the floors and walls are still standing. This is what I call an effort in futility trying to clean this house. I hope the mother takes her son and the dog somewhere safe. Maybe the family can do an intervention for the father.
This is the most sad home that you have ever done. They should sell the house as soon as possible. They probably won't get much money for it because everything has to be taken down, but they will need a new start. I can only imagine the kind of damage that kind of life has caused to them and the dog. When nothing works, even the most basic things, then you're constantly overwhelmed and it becomes your over all perspective on life. Thank you Auri 🧡❤️
It's so sad knowing people lived there for years, no heat, no proper running water, a toilet that wont flush, no hot water, all appliances broken. They need a new house, torn down and get a trailer if money is issue! You're right, it's not healthy for anyone to be living there. I hope you give an update on their situation! Thank you again for being a helpful Angel!
The cleaning you did will make it possible for an inspector/professional contractor to determine whether the home needs to be condemned or can be saved, and what needs to be done in priority order. You've made it possible for repairs to be done if the house can be saved. And hopefully someone reports the conditions the dog was kept in and has the dog removed to a safe home where it will be properly cared for.
Excellent observation!!❤❤ a ray of hope!
Im more concerned about a CHILDS condition cant believe how many comments are about the dog but nobody is even thinking about a child a human...
@@cananceylan9579The boy isn't there now. The dog is.
@@sheelfjohnsonthe boy lives there and is coming back after the cleaning.
@@cananceylan9579 Thats the world we live in these days. People care more about animals than the children.
mental illness really is sad. i guess everything gets so overwhelming you just barricade yourself inside and hope no one sees anything.
I agree that mental illness can cause a lot of problems for people. But I think in this kind of a case where other people are relying on you, meaning the teenager and the dog, then you don’t get the right to wallow in self-pity or whatever is going on.
@@latsnojokelee6434you are right but again mental health problems are not something you can control. sometimes you just aren't able to function. that's it. im speaking from the experience and im sure that every case is different but yeah we don't know any details so we are not the ones to judge. although i would take care of the child and the dog if i were the mother, and i would probably try to help this man but again we don't know what happened there so lets just hope they will either refurbish the house and fix it or just try to sell it
@@latsnojokelee6434 No one suffering from mental illness is looking for a reason to "wallow in self-pity". Please understand that mental illness, like a shattered leg, a massive birth defect, or other physical disease is never something anyone asks for or desires. These things also happen to people who have "other people relying on you" through no fault of their own, and at times even proper medical treatment isn't adequately helpful. Remember, there but for the grace of God go I ...
@@latsnojokelee6434 No one is capable to be responsible when suffering from mental illness. Everything, even the smallest thing, is as big as a mountain. It's just like being dead inside. You don't get the right to judge unless you walked on this man's shoes.
@@latsnojokelee6434 "Wallow in self-pity"??! That's what you think mental illness is? Wow 😦That father obviously isn't capable of changing the situation - otherwise he would have. What's actually sad here is that nobody else is helping them.
That poor family. It seems the whole family are Ill in some way if they think that house can be saved. Hopefully everything will work out for the boy and his dad. You are amazing Auri
it may, but its gonna take a lot of money and time to save it!
@@nadianunez5369exactly! House needs loving flipper fix!
The ex-wife and brother are in shock, denial, and better soon realize the house isn't just dirty, it's got structural, electrical, and many other serious problems that can't be ignored anymore. Unfit to live in. Please get that dog out of there too. Yep- deferred house maintenance cost them the entire value of the house. $$$ Huge financial loss for them. Mostly I feel sorry for that 17 year old. I wish I could adopt him.
The cleaning does help a lot, even if the house is not liveable. It makes it easier for the owners to move, and easier for, say, a plumber, an electrician, and movers to get around to their jobs. You are making a big difference by helping! 💖
I didn't see anything to move, though. No furniture and every appliance was broken. :( Just garbage and pickle jars. :(
That level of neglect would drive me crazy
It’s actually the opposite - the “crazy” is why the house ended up like that. 😢
@@elizabethpayne53perfect for flipper fixer fans. I think people love to do fix house up.
You know it's bad, when Auri stops loving dealing with the mess. I hope all the people and animals inhabiting that space will find a place more suitable and positive to live in.
At -20°C outside! 😮 Must have been tough, that heavy duty cleaning of a ruined house, & for free! You deserve a medal! 🏅
Someone needs to take the dog home with them. It is not fair to the dog to live there.
Or the teenager.
I agree with that, although the dog is a snow dog it's still in a bad place for it's sake
The dog?! There a teen human living there
So you care more about the dog then you do about the people and the teenager who lives there. Nice.
Both the child and dog need to leave.
On other cleaning channels, the cleaners get mad when people say it should be bulldozed, but in this case you are correct. It has been neglected for too many years to save and the people living there would be better off living in their car or a tent. That 17 yo has probably never known normalcy and that is a crime. There are no more words. Please don't ever put yourself in that kind of danger again.
@marjoriejohnson4559 You are absolutely right!
This is actually crazy to me. So I apparently had the wax seal under my toilet go bad, meaning the toilet was dripping down to the floor beneath. So I got the leak repaired and cut open the ceiling below thinking I could do the repair myself. Nope, mold. I don't know how long the leak went for, but the damage was pretty clear. This was in a less than 4x4 area. I called my insurance company and we've begun the process of water mitigation and mold mitigation and they've had to cut out waaaay more drywall than I thought in 2 rooms! From a tiny leak in one small place. And I'm looking at the stream behind the sink in your video and the toilet and everything leaking and literally there is no chance that anything in the house is not water logged and molded. So sad but the damage is so pervasive when it comes to water. I do hope the brother and the ex-wife recognize this is not liveable. He needs a place to rent at the moment while they decide on the most reasonable financial decision regarding demolishing this property. Honestly, I'd be surprised if the city didn't step in and insist.
This is a biohazard and dangerous for all! Mold spores are released with every attempt at cleaning. There’s a limit to positivity. I couldn’t watch anymore.
Update, they have to cut out a third wall in a new room. That's literally how this stuff spreads. This is insane.
I think if there’s a job you should have refused it was this one. It looks like a tear down or gut job.
@kimmy0868 👍
Well, the video has more than 100K views in just the first 2 days. I would say that makes the cleaning worth it, for Auri
@@gewurztramina Yeah, I really liked to watch her channel, now it feels icky and I probably won't watch anymore.
The wife may be nice but the whole family is in denial of the condition of the house. It is beyond repair. You did great trying to help them.
Maybe an inspector could talk some sense into them.
Wow Auri! That is the worst place yet! That house is a community project. That father needs help in every area, and that boy should not be living like that not the poor dog. Social Services should be involved to relocate them, and get some help with that house of horrors! Good job trying to help them. ❤
Too many health and relationship issues. The whole place needs renovating due to the water seepage. You did a great job , hopefully someone will buy it and demolish it❤
It’s very odd that his ex wife wants to save this house, it obviously needs rebuilt, no one should be living here, the holes on the kitchen floor, the water constantly leaking in the kitchen sink and the bathroom sink, no heating, no electricity, everything broken and rotting, it’s also a fire hazard with the water leaking into the oven and the wife wanting to cover the kitchen floor, that won’t stop the floor from falling and seeing the kitchen sink falling too, it’s just all crazy and that poor dog needs fresh food, not frozen old sausages 🫣
whatever kind of impairment in judgment ralph has, it's clear the ex wife has it too. the ex wife said the sink was already leaking when she lived there over twenty years ago and was apparently just as comfortable as ralph leaving it like that.
@@Yoarashi Yeah that’s true, I thought the brother would see sense, but he bought a washing machine, like what’s the point? Anyone living there would be in danger
You got it to a point where they can bring someone in to inspect and assess the damage. I'm assuming it would be cheapest to demo and build a new house, but on the off chance that there's not mold absolutely everywhere it might be possible to do it part by part and spread out the cost. But I'm assuming the "put some plywood over the rotting floor" is exactly is what's going to happen. It's gotten so normal that the structural damage doesn't even register. I hope they get access to the help they need to improve their life, this is not a situation that will resolve on it's own.
Yeah, it seems to me the ex and brother may live similar lives as they think rugs can work there...
Bless your heart. You could tell you didn't enjoy that cleaning at all. Take care of yourself.
First time i really felt bad for aurii.... Having to clean for nothing is just not worth it
She gets paid by CZcams,her sponsors etc.She's a cleaning influencer.That is her career.
Also she truly helps people.
That is not "working for nothing"
It is very much worth it.
@@alastarliexx5081I don’t think they meant she isn’t being financially benefited from the cleaning. They mean she’s trying to clean but it’s literally pointless because the house needs condemned, nothing works, the place is burned and rusted, etc. She’s fighting a losing battle and no matter how much she cleans and scrubs the place still looks absolutely disgusting and there’s no payoff for the hard work she is doing.
@@alastarliexx5081Auri did awesome cleaning. She needs to know she did good helpful cleaning for easier way to do flipper fix house. I hope she proud of herself.
@@alastarliexx5081 I think it's more important that Auri could have been at a house that truly needs this cleaning with an owner that could have benefitted from it.... and im sure Auri would agree probably.
I feel bad for the dog. Hopefully it can be rescued from this abuse and placed in a good home.
_Agree 😓_
why do you assume it was abused? The dog looks fine and healthy, doesn't look malnourished. She also said the dog used to live in one bedroom, so he wasn't always outside (I assume they chained the dog so he won't disturb the cleaning process). You should feel bad for the dogs on the streets who look 10 times worse than this husky does.
I feel bad for the child !
@@simetraDI It is absolutely not possible to say about a husky in its wintercoat, wether it is malnourished or not. Regarding the shortness of the footage and the circumstances there, which are absolutely disgusting and full of abuse in every aspect how can you be so entittled and dare to say, this dog is not abused.
@@silverbee3373 I've seen abused dogs and that dog does not behave nor look like an abused dog. I've seen malnourished huskies who don't look like that. I am entitled to share my opinion about something just like everybody in a comment section is. Not all people who suffer from mental health problems abuse their pets and it would be foolish to even think so.
I give you so much credit for staying positive in a condemned house. Your attitude is remarkable!
The house has way too much structural damage to be habitable. The ex-wife seems to be trying to put lipstick on a pig. I wonder what she thought a cleaning company would do that you didn't?? And why on earth would his brother be installing something that needs plumbing to work?? Seems like a textbook case of denial.
I will be calling spiderwebs "forbidden cotton candy" from now on
I watch a Japanese channel and one guy named Natsuki called cobwebs "spider trash!" 😂
You did a great job. Auri! 🎉 It takes strength and character to do this in a freezing cold, no light, and extremely filthy environment. You’ve proven yourself once again. I hope this helps inspectors to come in and assess the safety levels of this house, or at least work towards fixing the water leakage issues here
If they don't plan to move, they need to spend a ton to fix it up. The kitchen water leak and the heater need to be fixed immediately, so things can dry out. Probably a toaster oven or microwave too. But, you really did help them, Auri. Now they can decide their future.
Im concerned about the ex wife too. Why on earth would she think to call some cleaners to help with the floor after you when there are clearly holes in it? Some rugs arent going to fix this either. Im shocked they called you to clean at all. Did they really not know how bad it was?
Instead of trying to defrost old sausage the ex wife could go to the store and buy some fresh dog food. I’m worried about that dog.
Me too 😢
Seriously! Have they not heard of stores? And I'm so confused as to why he's chained there while all of his owners are living somewhere else.😵💫 I'm sure somebody would foster him.
They might be living on the countryside. In Finland that could mean that the closest store is hours away.
The dog looks to be a Siberian husky. They have really, really thick fur and therefore prefer to live outdoors in the cold. Look it up!
I would worry about a fire from faulty wiring
The ex wife allows HER SON to live in those conditions!
I am suprized they think they could save anything here. Especially by putting rugs on the damaged floor.
I think this family is living in some kind of altered reality if they think this house can be saved. It would be condemned in my country. Poor doggy, no readily available food. Any bagged food is probably full of mouse poop. Surprised he isn't sick. He has no choice.😟😢🐶
Just found your channel, respect what you do, wish you good health and fortune Auri❤️ God bless
It's a wonder that at -20C outside, the water didn't freeze in the pipes and burst them open. Those faucet perma-leaks probably saved them.
The old man probably did that on purpose when he couldn't afford a new heater and everything else started to break down too. They don't have any money, that's for sure...
I agree with the folks who've written below that this house is totally disgusting. Even when clean, although obviously better, it won't be much better than living outside. More dangerous in some ways, as the chances of flooding, an electrical fire or some other calamity are great. I feel terrible for the 17 year-old, not only for having to live there, but for having parents who are as deranged as his must be. You are so kind to help.
I am so sorry for the son.. hopefully exspecially he can have a proper place to stay in the future... Also sorry for Ralph, who clearly needs a lot of help..❤Thank you for trying to clean at least...you are truly amazing..
I don’t understand why the man still want to live there when everything is broken, literally everything! They should move to an apartment, i think that would be a good fresh new start for the 17 year old boy and the dog 😔🌼
It's worse than camping because at least no one camps in a garbage dump. CRAZY
It is a form of a mental illness
You're such a beautiful and kind person Auri. How you're cleaning when it's 20 degrees below zero without any heating just shows how dedicated you are to helping people. Hello from Australia 🦘
This is the level of dirt my father lived with, in his entire life. On very few occasions he would clean, but apparently, he associated cleaning with trauma.
❤
This has to be the least satisfactory cleaning I've seen but you're an angel for still doing it, Auri!
Agree.
Honestly, I wonder if this boy has any social media or any way to contact him. I wish I could talk to him because damn, I feel so much sympathy
Auri, are you sure this person isn't a squatter instead of a tenant? All the signs are there! I mean no heat, no working plumbing... No paying tenant would put up with that! The filth level is abandoned squatter home level. You didn't fail. He failed to let you know that he couldn't provide the basics for you to do the job! Snow on the ground and you are working with no heat? He should have considered your health and safety more. God bless you for giving it a shot.
She mentioned maybe in the last video that he and his wife built this together, iirc. But I really agree there’s definitely a lot missing from the story.
The thought of a 17 year old lives in that. That child deserves better.
What makes me mad about this house and the parents is that the kid and dog have to live in those conditions
The saddest house ever 😢
Auri...You have the patience of a saint! That home needs to be condemned and Child Services should remove any minor children. What a shame some people don't appreciate what they have. You are such a blessing to these clients! 💖🙏🙏🙏
The fact it doesn`t shine after cleaning doesn`t mean the job done is less important!
The worse it looks, more serious the issues of a person living there are and more precious the help. I think what Katariina has done is beyond any appreciation.
Im sure at this point she's saving the boy's mental state. It will at least. Even a little.
Even if the house got demolished in the end, i hope the boy understands that there's always a light at the end of a tunnel
I completely agree with you. I hope the boy and the dog will be okay 🙏🤍🕊
Auri is giving the boy hope and not giving up on him. I do think he deserves less stressful living conditions. This is too hard on his health, it's not even funny.
I have so much respect and admiration for you trying your best to make their home more livable. Mental illness is so very serious, and showing them so much kindness will hopefully reveal the truth that they need to improve their living conditions and renovate if possible. Twenty years of damage from a leaky sink is daunting to fix, but not impossible. I wish this family the power and determination to improve and thrive.
All that leaking water with electricity is scary.
I wouldn’t try and use appliances there.
This place should be condemned.
You are amazing for not giving up and not judging the man owning the house but helping him!
Wooaah! No lights working, no heating, no toilet, no shower, no sinks, no washer & dishwasher, no fridge,... Awful living conditions 😥 Did you count &/or recycle in the end the pickle glass jars?
The toilet didn't work so you can guess what the pickle jars contained!
@@judyhinkle2357 😳😫 I never thought of that! 😖
I almost think that this was staged in the sense that nobody has lived there for 10 or 20 years and for whatever reason nothing was ever fixed either. It's just impossible to imagine someone living there when nothing works, nothing at all. You can't turn on the light at night, you can't shower, use the toilet, can't use the kitchen to cook, it must be so moldy that the smell must be horrible, I think this one actually was a stunt.
I respect that you took the time to clean a house that can't be salvaged. Most people would have probably never done that. they would have seen it as a waste of time
Not me spending the last 3 hours refreshing my CZcams, checking if Sunday's update on last weeks video was up yet 🤫 Love everything you do Auri! Even the best cleaner in the world have her limits! ❤
I would have reported them after the family thinking this was ok. It's the best thing in this situation for the dad and son. Yes, nobody will buy the house itself but that in itself is a statement about the current well-being of anyone who is living in it and trying to rationalize that goes against the comment she made. Safety over finances for now I think.❤ You can't put lipstick on a pig (so to speak)
Girl, seriously, safe your energy and time for places that really need a cleaning, this house can’t be helped anymore..
Exactly. Report the family to child protective services and call the ASPCA and move on. A place like this is only going to endanger her because who knows how much black mold is behind those walls from all that running water.
The house can`t be helped but people can. The very fact they showed Katariina their house, and went there and had a look themselves... might help them understand it`s time to change their lives.
@@NV-yc9cy I have hope but... if a mother thinks it's acceptable for her child to be living in a broken dangerous place like this for such a long time.... I don't think Auri will work some kind of magic and change them immediately.
This free cleaning challenged Auri like no other and yet, she does not change. In a world where too many are far too quick to judge people and situations they know nothing of, I am thankful people like Auri live among us.
Auri does not change. Auri cleans what she can, in every situation. If I lived in Finland, I would know of Auri and would ask if I could help clean, too.
Auri says she doesn't know why there is damage in the house and doesn't know what can be fixed, or if it should be condemned. ... very likely because she is not a contractor, electrician or plumber. However, she cleans anyway, and DOES NOT judge the people involved. I do see the benefit of her cleaning. The people who live in the house, the brother and ex-wife can see not only what needs to be repaired, but they can see the possible. But, of course, it takes money to buy building products ... plywood, 2x4's, electrical and plumbing parts, etc. I'm sure Auri would know how to forward your money to the brother, without violating their privacy.
Auri does not change. That tells us she is healthy and her character ... integrity, ethics, morality and every trait and habit that hold those up ... kindness, compassion, empathy, boundaries and more, and not judging is solid and stable. Those who judge and criticize, whether they know the situation or not, show their character, and lack of boundaries, as well.
You critical ones ... your relative ease, ignorance and entitlement is showing. If you don't think there are millions of people, worldwide, who live in houses like this, or less, you are surprisingly naive. Will you freely criticize a family in Sudan who lives in a tent and who has one daily task --- searching for something to eat and drink? Probably. Will you freely criticize the single parent in Appalachia who lives in a cabin that needs repair, with no electricity, no running water, or toilet, and has no money to fix anything? Probably.
The dog: It is not only common, it is wise to contain one's dog when strangers are in the house. Auri doesn't want a strange dog following her around, nor does anyone else on her team who may be with her.
Auri knows more about double coated dogs than every person who is criticizing the Husky being tied up and laying in the snow.
How many people know double coated dogs, like Huskies, haul sleds and carts in extremely cold temperatures? How many people know Livestock Guardian Dogs (LGD's) guard and herd livestock all over the world in what humans consider "extreme" cold ... that they enjoy their jobs, that the cold doesn't bother them, that they sleep in the snow? If you want to make the Husky in this video uncomfortable, bring him in the house and make him live in a warm environment like you do your chihuahua or bulldog.
Auri does not criticize the 17 yr old because he is old enough to make his own decisions. Despite too many who want to think of him as a "child"; and make him one, he is not. His reasons for staying with his Dad are his and he owes no explanation, especially to judgemental strangers.
Contact Auri. ... find out if there are ways you can financially can gather together to help this family, or if there are government agencies or volunteer groups who rehab homes. Search the internet for groups or agencies that operate in Finland with a mission to help rehab homes.
Or, just continue criticizing and judging people and situations you know nothing about except what you were allowed to see, by the creator, in one video.
You are so kind in your videos, but it is a shame that it was neglected by the people living there. Thank you ! You worked your usual magic 💕💕🤗👍
The home owners need a healthy start somewhere new, and hopefully somewhere pet-friendly with a building supervisor in charge of plumbing, etc. Not only can they not clean, they don't seem to understand that leaks must be repaired correctly immediately! This is long-term extreme home neglect. It's also long-term self-neglect, because no one deserves to live in such conditions for any amount of time. I'm sure they are very nice people. Think how much happier they would be if they left this place of cold and decay to live somewhere basic, but much healthier!
If Ralph goes back to this house the situation will stay the same and only worsen with time, especially given that the bedrooms weren't cleaned and the damage is so big it would take months and a lot of money to fix. One day sooner or later this house will fall apart and it's better if it's not with someone inside. It’s sad for the boy and for the dog, no one should live like this. Ralph's not mentally able to take care of them, it seems. Someone should alert social services.
Thank you, Auri, for trying to help this family. I pray that they get help, because they so need it. Heartbreaking. 🥺💔
Your positive attitude really shines here, Auri! They should not have even asked you to clean this place, but you did the best you could do. We love you!! ❤
Poor dog!!!! This was super depressing
I hope the family doesn't see this video. With your laughter after what you are seeing, you would definitely make me feel like you were making fun of the home. Everything doesn't require laughter 😢😢
Auri, I just love you, no matter how bad the situation,you are a trooper…always with a smile and happy. Thank you for Being you!
You have a heart of pure gold. At least your tried ... the poor child ... thank you for at least trying ❤❤❤
Love your videos,Auri!😍God bless!🙏💝
The family seems as delusional as the resident. The whole family needs therapy.
Thank you! nice job Auri! You definitely made a difference in helping them get from feeling overwhelmed, to a fresh, cope able re-start! You're an angel for giving them that. I can imagine there was definite emotional relief from it being done.
Even though it is still in bad shape, I know you helped tremendously and hopefully they can continue with repairs.
The whole place should be condemned. The fact that the owner wants to return there shows me that he is incapable of making rational decisions and looking after himself.
I hope the son can permanently live elsewhere.
You did your best with what you had Auri, and it looks 100 times better than it did.
I think the father could benefit from living in an assisted-living facility, it would take the burden of caring for a house off of his shoulders and allow him to focus on getting better mentally.
Such a depressing house & situation. You did your best & it is better, Aurie.
Even though the home will probably be condemned, good on you for showing us the wonders of cleaning even a place this bad! Thanks, Auri! x
Auri you did everything you could do and you have a big heart for trying to clean under brutal conditions. All in all you did an outstanding job.
Auri, you did your best under very bad circumstances. God bless you for your willingness to try at least. This is an impossible situation with broken everything and long-term maintenance neglect. Even the magic of Auri can't undo that! Your heart is in the right place, but I think your Mom was right about this. At minimum, a place should have running water to have any hope of being able to clean it. It sounds like the entire family is denial about how bad things are.
when I heard the faucet was like this for 20 years........
The mother of the 17 year old should take him to her house and Ralph should take his brother to live at Ralph's home. What is wrong with these people??????
My heart goes out to this man and his son. It's truly heart breaking from start to finish. To hear you say things about the toilet, the fridge the heat the lights........ the basic necessities not being there, not working it pulls at the heart strings
Auri, you truly are a angel on earth!! Also I just want you to know that I really appreciate your cleaning tips they have helped me so much. God bless you 😊❤🥰
So many good comments…when utilities doesn’t work it really isn’t livable. Especially in the winter, in Finland…
If the house is thirty years old and in this bad shape it’s also extremely poorly maintained.
The parents don’t seem to acknowledge what needs to be taken care of - house, kids, animals or them selfs.
The type of conversation you are having with them seems to be a delusional one. The kids are now also enabling the living situation. This family need help and have been for a long time.
The house is not safe.
This was so sad to watch 😢 But you did an amazing job Auri! Hopefully the family will move somewhere else and start fresh 👏🏻
I wouldn’t have cleaned it so kudos to you my friend. God bless.
Bless you for doing the best you can in a hopeless situation.
You are amazing! I love your reactions to ‘dirt’. ❤😊
You are a frickin saint trying to clean that place. Unbelievable.
Thank you, Auri. My heart breaks for the son and that beautiful, friendly looking husky.
I think you did an amazing job! Even if the house is not liveable because of the water damage, you showed the son that it IS possible to tidy up and clean even the dirtiest and messiest of homes. It is not perfect, but a lot better than before.
