A clean, well-maintained unfinished basement can be transformed into a functional storage room, a nice laundry room, or a cleaned office —boosting your property’s overall value.

Unfinished basements are prime targets for rodents, with easy access through gaps, vents, pipes, and foundation cracks. Left unchecked, they can gnaw through insulation, destroy wiring, and nest in hidden areas, leading to costly repairs. We reinforce vulnerable spots by sealing cracks, blocking entry points, and installing rodent-proof barriers, such as RodeXit weatherstrips and heavy-duty sealants.

With specialized cleaning equipment and local experts who understand Bay Area environments, such as hillside homes in Oakland and coastal properties in Marin, we make sure your expectations are met with our unfinished basement cleaning service. Here’s our process:
We begin every project with a free inspection to determine the condition of your unfinished basement, and its infestation level. One of our rodent control professionals will walk through your house, starting with your basement, checking for entry points, signs of rodent activity, and any structural problems that might lead to bigger issues.
After examining your house, we’ll create a quick, comprehensive analysis of our findings for your benefit. We’ll point out problematic areas, talk to you about what options you have for remediation and our rates, and give you our professional opinion on what steps to choose if we were in your shoes. If you’re still on the fence about whether to request a free inspection, consider these benefits:
Once the inspection is complete, we’ll email you a Comprehensive Diagnostic Report (CDR). Its purpose is to document all problematic areas and surroundings, give you a detailed assessment of the severity of the issue, and offer transparency into our quote and process, the preparation involved, and the expected timeline for completion. This clarity can help you quickly decide how to move forward without any type of guesswork.
Once you’re ready to get started, our crew will begin to clean up and remove the mess. To do so, we’ll carefully move and organize any rugs, furniture, and appliances, so we can properly clean and vacuum the floors. Additionally, we’ll ensure all shelves are clean and wiped down to remove any built-up grime and accumulated dust. Grease marks along any door or wall are also cleaned. Lastly, we’ll check cabinets, closets, fixtures, and any storage nooks in your basement to ensure nothing is missed.
Once everything is cleared, we’ll sanitize and decontaminate your basement to eliminate any leftover bacteria, rodent pheromones, contaminated residue, and harmful pathogens that remain. To do so, we’ll use specialized cleaning solutions and products, such as Nisus Bioesque, that are specifically designed for rodent-infested areas and hard-to-reach spaces such as in insulation, under non-movable appliances (e.g., a water heater), and in obscure corners. For the Bay Area’s damp coastal climate, we also use eco-friendly, mold-inhibiting agents to avoid any future mold growth and asbestos. This will help create a healthy living environment for your family to enjoy happy memories for the future.
After your unfinished basement is cleaned, vacuumed, and sanitized, we seal, reinforce, and prevent future damage to the area. Increasing rodent activity can quickly create worsening conditions that threaten any type of wall or floor, especially in unfinished basements.
At Alley Cat, we use proven, high-quality exclusion methods to protect your home long-term:
From having worked on 11,000+ homes across San Francisco and the East Bay with a 97% satisfaction rating, Alley Cat remains the choice you can trust for your unfinished basement cleaning service.
To catch any remaining rats or mice, we discreetly set traps in your unfinished basement near entryways and under sources of warmth (e.g., water heater). Our team will then return a few weeks later to check and replace these traps, ensuring the job is finished and no further infestation occurs.
Finally, after we clean, vacuum, sanitize, and seal all potential entry points around the walls and floors, it’s time to handle the final tasks for your house. Before we leave, we focus on moving and organizing all the things in your home we moved back where they were. We also do a required “sweep” – checking for any last-minute mistake, areas not vacuumed, leftover cobwebs, and appliances not moved back to make sure we close out the project on a great note. Then, after it’s cleaned, we dispose of all the contaminated items in a moving dumpster, and bring everything to the dump—leaving your basement and any kind of fixtures clean and organized.
At Alley Cat, we take pride in our people and in tailoring our cleaning services to your unique needs. We aim to provide fully transparent answers to your questions, and we are ready to take on any project, of any size. Over the years, by emphasizing communication and consistent follow-up, we’ve made sure every one of our clients feels confident from start to finish.

Serving homeowners in Berkeley, Mountain View, and Concord, we deliver on-time basement transformations that lead to lower stress and higher overall customer satisfaction.
I had rats in my basement and guestroom. I called Alley Cat and Milo came and did a thorough examination of my entire house and gave a quote. Augusto and his crew were incredibly thorough. They also pulled out my stove and dishwasher (neither works) and found rats had chewed through from the basement to nest behind those appliances. They cleaned, sanitized and left snap traps. A full days work for four men. I also bought a 3year trapping agreement (they come when called) as I also had rats 5 or 7 years ago. Great job.
