Understanding Biohazard Cleanup in Downtown West and What It Covers

Crime scene cleaners do the specialized cleaning that safe scene cleaning requires, from blood and fentanyl cleanup to odor control, with emergency response available day or night.

First steps

Before Calling Biohazard Cleaners in Downtown West: What to Do First

Few people encounter this more than once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. Contact 911 for any injury or death. The medical examiner, law enforcement and first responders need to clear the scene before any cleanup starts.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Block access for children and pets, then close the door. Do not walk through blood or fluids.
  3. Leave the cleanup to professionals. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
  4. Call your insurance company. Ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered when you report the loss, then note the insurance claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Tell the cleanup team about the event and all impacted rooms to help them prepare.
Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Downtown West, Step by Step

Each job follows the same safe biohazard cleanup process, beginning with your call and ending with the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Share what happened. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree the scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    To prevent contamination from moving elsewhere, the affected area is closed off using plastic sheeting.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    Porous materials that absorbed infectious materials, such as carpet, pad and drywall, are cut out and sealed as medical waste so nothing is left behind.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Hospital-grade disinfectant registered by the EPA is applied after all surfaces are cleaned.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    The odor source is treated using ozone, hydroxyl or air scrubbers, and the vents are also examined.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    Where needed, ATP testing helps check that the space has returned to a livable condition. You also get photographs and documentation for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    Your own contractor or a vendor working with your insurer can replace any removed drywall or flooring.
