Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Sprays and bleach treat the visible surface yet do not reach fluids below carpet, inside padding, under floors or within drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.
Houses, two-flats, condominiums and high-rise units can receive blood, crime, death, sewage cleanup and hoarding cleanup.

Explain the situation. Technicians examine and photograph the area, then confirm the work scope with you.
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.

Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.
Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.
A permitted medical waste treatment facility receives the sealed material along with its tracking documents.
The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.
Your own contractor or a vendor working with your insurer can replace any removed drywall or flooring.
