Do not wipe, mop, or spray cleaners before professionals assess the area.

Is the scene still active, or has it been cleared but contamination remains? Many families call after a death investigation, an assault, or an unattended incident where bodily fluids and contaminated materials were left behind. Even when the visible mess is gone, microscopic residue and odors can remain in hidden areas.
We evaluate affected zones and establish containment barriers. This helps prevent cross-contamination. Our assessment includes testing air surfaces and materials to map hazard presence and inform next steps.
All items that cannot be cleaned are carefully removed. This can include furniture, textiles, drywall insulation, or flooring materials. Each item is bagged, labeled, and disposed of according to hazardous waste regulations.
We use hospital-grade disinfectants and steam treatments when needed. Surfaces are scrubbed, and the ceiling, vents, floors, countertops, and concealed areas are sanitized to eliminate pathogens, chemical residues, or drug traces.
Persistent odors from decomposition waste or chemicals are treated using ozone generators, air scrubbers, and specialized deodorizing agents. Our methods neutralize odors rather than mask them.
All removed materials are transported to licensed facilities using sealed containers. Documentation accompanies waste through disposal, ensuring legal adherence and traceability.
After cleaning, we perform a detailed walkthrough with photo documentation. Third-party testing can be arranged to certify safety. We deliver a clearance report to confirm the property meets health and safety standards.
