Comprehensive Biohazard Cleanup Process

Biohazard Assessment: An initial assessment is done to determine the overall cleanup process.

Biohazard Scene Control: After the assessment, the area will be isolated to prevent the biohazard from spreading.

Biohazard Removal: Biohazards may contaminate carpet, furniture, decor, and other materials. Any contaminated items or materials will be removed.

Cleaning, Disinfecting: After removal, the area is cleaned thoroughly and disinfected with an EPA-approved solution. This will eliminate any lingering germs. Cleaning and disinfecting will also be completed for any removed items when possible and in coordination with the owners.

Deodorizing: It is common for unpleasant odors to accompany biohazards, so our team will use the best techniques to eliminate unwanted and unpleasant odors.

Disposal: All the waste is packed, labeled, and transported to a licensed medical waste disposal facility for proper treatment.

Verification: Follow up testing, which may include air quality assessments, will be conducted to ensure the area is safe and free from hazards associated with the biohazard.

Please note that this is a general process and some situations may require some variation in the order or intensity of these steps.

Biohazard Risk Levels

Low Risk: Cleaning and disinfecting of some bodily fluids such as urine, saliva, and small amounts of blood can be conducted with proper protective equipment and requires minimal special procedures.

Moderate Risk: Biohazards like human or animal waste or sewage backup as well as moderate amounts of blood or any human bodily fluid from a person with communicable diseases are at least a moderate risk. This requires higher levels of protective equipment and special procedures for cleaning and disinfecting.

High Risk: Most crime scene or trauma scene cleanup will fall into the high risk category. Large amounts of medical waste, large amounts of blood, unknown biological contaminants, multiple hazards and/or hazard sources are all factors in a high risk biohazard cleanup. Specialized equipment and procedures will be required, along with safety redundancies and other factors.

Biohazard Health Risk

Some risks associated with biohazards at any level include:

• Bloodborne illnesses such as HIV or Hepatitis C
• Tuberculosis
• Infectious diseases
• Respiratory infections
• Parasitic infections
• Fungal infections
• Major or minor skin irritation

How Long Does Biohazard Cleanup Take?

Biohazard cleanup can take anywhere from a few hours to multiple days, depending on the risk level, severity of exposure, materials and area affected, and other factors such as accessibility and cooperation with involved parties (police, families, property owners, insurance companies). Please contact us for an assessment of your unique situation.

Will Biohazard Cleanup Be Covered By Insurance?

Most homeowners insurance policies will cover cleanup costs for suicide, crime scene, death, and other sudden biohazard developments. You can check with your agent or insurance company to verify coverage. However, because of the physical and emotional risk potential in a biohazard cleanup situation, we recommend getting professional support with the cleanup regardless of coverage.
