D & D’s Cleaning and Remediation

05/08/2026

A little personal announcement… 🤍

When we started D & D’s Cleaning & Remediation, we always said we weren’t just building a business. We were building a future for our family.

We’re so excited to share that our family is growing, with Baby Waddell is due in March 2027. 👶

Many of you know the last couple of months have been incredibly difficult for us. We’d like to say a huge thank you to all of our clients, local authorities, housing associations and everyone we’ve worked with for your kindness, patience and understanding while we’ve found our feet again. Your support has meant more than you’ll ever know.

Every booking, recommendation and word of encouragement has helped us continue to grow, and it’s because of that support that we’re able to build both our business and our family’s future.

Here’s to our newest little team member… although they’ll be on cuddles rather than cleaning duties for a little while yet! 🩵

We know that times are hard, and at D&D’s we want to give back as much as we can.

If you know anyone in Dumfries that could benefit from some of these items, then please get in touch. All are free to be collected over coming days, and location can be shared.

We often salvage any items from houses that people donate, and have a container full of similar items perfect for those starting out.

We are having issues with our phones today and probably the next few days so best to get us via email

Or alternatively leave a voicemail and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

We will update once back to normal.

One of our clients provided Dean with his very own PPE to wear during the hot weather… very fitting 🧑‍🦲

Sadly mine and Dean's best friend passed away suddenly over the weekend.

Our hearts are broken.

We are doing our best to keep up with everything but we may take longer to respond than normal.

We have set up a just giving page to raise some funds for Michael's funeral as he did not have anything in place. We know alot of our followers will know Michael through work or studying and would be so grateful if anyone is able to donate or share this for us.

Donna and Dean 💔

Last night we attended the awards ceremony and although we didn't come home with an award, we came home feeling incredibly proud.

Just being shortlisted was a huge achievement for us and a reminder of how far D & D's Cleaning and Remediation has come in a relatively short space of time.

We had a fantastic night celebrating alongside so many other local businesses and our friends and family (a few sore heads today)

A huge thank you to our clients, staff, family, and everyone who has supported us on this journey. Your trust means the world to us.

Congratulations to all of the winners and finalists. A big thank you to DG Chamber for a fantastic night.

Hoarding Awareness Week is an opportunity to increase understanding, challenge stigma, and promote compassionate support for individuals affected by hoarding behaviours. Hoarding is a complex issue that is often linked to trauma, bereavement, anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges.

This week encourages communities, professionals, and families to recognise that recovery takes time, patience, and trust. With the right support, individuals can make meaningful progress toward creating safer living environments while maintaining dignity and control over their decisions.

At D&D’s Cleaning and Remediation Ltd, we understand how overwhelming it can feel to allow others into your home. Many people feel embarrassed, ashamed, or fearful of being judged. Our approach is always sensitive, respectful, and non-judgemental.

We understand behaviours and work at a pace that feels right for the individual. We take time to build trust and support each person to make their home safer, healthier, and more manageable, while ensuring they remain in control throughout the process.

Not only are we trusted, we work alongside side multi disciplinary teams and offer a range of supports tailored to each persons needs, wishes and goals to regain safe and comfortable living environments.

If you, a family member, or someone you support could benefit from compassionate support, please get in touch.

This week is National Hoarding Awareness Week, and as part of our role in the Dumfries and Galloway Public Protection Partnership, the council is raising awareness of hoarding disorder, because it can impact people’s safety, health and wellbeing at home.

Hoarding is not a lifestyle choice. It is a recognised mental health condition, often linked to trauma, loss or emotional distress.

Hoarding can create serious risks, including fire hazards, unsafe or blocked access to essential areas like kitchens and bathrooms, or increased risk to both the individual and others (including neighbours and emergency responders).

Around 2–6% of the UK population are estimated to be affected, but compassionate and person-centred support can help. If you are supporting someone who is hoarding, remember that forced clean ups can cause distress and harm trust. Instead, take time to listen, build trust gradually, focus on safety and encourage small, manageable steps.

If you are worried about yourself or someone else, you can contact our Social Work Single Access Point on 0303 333 3001.

We are absolutley delighted with this 😁
We have been shortlisted to the final 3 for most promising new business.

It has been the most incredible year with lots of behind the scenes learning and hard work to create a business we are so proud of.

We have had the privilege of getting to know so many other amazing businesses over the last year at various events and training and it will be a fantastic night to not only acknowledge our own achievement but also all the other businesses.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank every person who has supported us since beginning D & D's Cleaning and Remediation. A special thanks to DG Chamber, South of Scotland Enterprise and Business Gateway - Dumfries & Galloway for the amazing support for businesses in D&G, through coaching, free training events, funding and the opportunity to meet others and build a support network. We cannot wait to see what the next year brings and are proud to support our community to live in safer and more comfortable environments.

Bring on the celebrations
