Biohazard cleanup involves cleaning, sanitizing, and deodorizing areas where a traumatic event such as an accident, injury or death has occurred. Thus, dealing with biohazards often means dealing with blood, human or animal remains, chemical spills, and more.
We provide cleanup and recovery services for many biohazard situations. Our expert technicians wear personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory protection during these cleanups to avoid exposure to possible biohazards.

What is a sewer backup?
A sewer backup occurs when wastewater moves the wrong direction through the sewer system—when dirty water comes up through your drains, sinks, and toilets, rather than flowing down them.
All the dirty water from your plumbing fixtures has to go somewhere. Depending on where you live, your house might connect to a city sewer system or to a private septic system.
Crime Scene Cleanup
Crime scenes, such as homicides and instances where severe bodily injuries have occurred, are typically cleaned up by biohazard cleanup teams equipped to handle the mess.
While police officials and investigators will collect evidence from a crime scene, they will not perform cleanup services.
Human blood and bodily fluids can potentially cause infections, even up to a few weeks after having spilled onto environmental surfaces.
We remove and dispose of bodily fluids, tissue and other potentially pathogenic substances resulting from accident, trauma, crime or death.
HOARDING CLEANUP SERVICES
When the accumulation of garbage, clothes, food and many other items render the property unsafe, we can help!
Potential dangers related to hoarding:
- Increased Risk of Fire – The more items around a home the higher the chances a fire can ignite and the more fuel it has to spread, which can put you in a dangerous risk.
- Decreased Escape Routes – Rescue crews often have limited access to a home due to piles blocking windows, doors and deaths occur in homes where hoarding is present, when salvation could have been otherwise possible.
- Increased Indoor Air Pollutants – Mold, mildew, radon, carbon monoxide, pollen, dander and cigarette smoke are just some of the indoor serious air impurities and odors that hoarding can cause a contaminated house and the results can lead to adverse health effects.
- Tripping or Falling – Piles of items and stacks of belongings that start to consume a house make it harder and harder to navigate through. The risks increase with age, falls can even be fatal in seniors that don’t have the strength to get back up.
- Structure Collapses – The more your home stores, the greater the weight becomes and if rooms are filled with possessions the load can and has led to collapses in a home.
- Biohazard Development – If items are growing at an alarming rate, there is probably a good portion of garbage, debris, possibly pharmaceuticals and if animals and pets are present feces and urine. All of these are considered a biohazard and the health risks grow the longer they remain in your home.
We have specially trained technicians who work with property owners to restore their properties by eliminating unnecessary clutter.
