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.

First steps

First Steps Before You Call Biohazard Cleaners in Palmetto Bay

For most people, this happens only once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. Call 911 if anyone is hurt or has died. Law enforcement, first responders and the medical examiner or coroner must release the scene before cleanup can begin.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Never cross an area containing blood or body 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. Tell your insurer about the loss, ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered and record your claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Describe what happened and which rooms are affected so the cleanup team can plan.
Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Palmetto Bay, 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

    Describe what occurred. After technicians photograph and inspect the scene, they agree on the scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    When infectious materials enter porous items such as drywall, carpet or pad, those items are cut away and contained as medical waste, with nothing 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

    Air scrubbers, ozone or hydroxyl address odor where it begins, while vents receive inspection.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    A permitted medical waste treatment facility receives the sealed material along with its tracking documents.

  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

    Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
