What Opa-locka Biohazard Cleanup Means and Includes

The safe disposal, removal and disinfection of bodily fluids, blood, tissue and other hazardous materials after an accident, crime, death, sewage backup or hoarding situation is biohazard cleanup.

You may also hear it called trauma cleanup, bio cleanup, biohazard remediation or bio hazard cleaning. Professional biohazard cleanup is more involved than deep cleaning. Technicians use personal protective equipment, locate every contaminated place, remove porous material that disinfection cannot save and treat affected areas until each reaches a livable condition.

Biohazard removal services in Opa-locka and the surrounding areas cover crime scenes, traumatic events, hoarding, sewage and hazardous waste. 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. The goal is respectful, compassionate service that helps restore safety to the home.

  • Bodily fluids and blood, whether dried or fresh
  • Decomposition after an unattended death
  • Urine, vomit and animal waste or human waste
  • Category 3 black water and untreated sewage
  • Needles, sharps and medical waste
  • Meth, fentanyl and drug lab residue

First steps

Before Calling Biohazard Cleaners in Opa-locka: What to Do First

This is a one-time experience for most people. Following the right opening steps helps protect your health while preserving your claim and cleanup cost.

Call (888) 351-0904
  1. Phone 911 when someone is injured or dead. Before cleanup can start, the medical examiner, along with law enforcement and first responders, must release the location.
  2. Stay out of the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Keep your feet away from blood and 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. Notify the insurance company, check the biohazard cleanup coverage and keep a written record of the claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Explain the situation and identify each affected room so cleanup can be planned.
Step by step

A Step-by-Step Look at Biohazard Clean Up in Opa-locka

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

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

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    Plastic sheeting isolates the affected area and stops contaminants from reaching additional rooms.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    Infectious materials absorbed by carpet, padding, drywall or other porous items require those materials to be cut out, placed in sealed medical waste containers and removed so nothing is left behind.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Waste is sealed, tracked with paperwork and taken to a permitted facility for medical waste treatment.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    Checks may include ATP testing when needed to verify a livable condition. Photos and supporting records are then given to you for insurance.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

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