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.

First steps

What to Do First Before Calling Biohazard Cleaners in Winston-Govans

Most people only face this once. Taking these initial actions safeguards your health, insurance claim and final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 351-0904
  1. Contact 911 for any injury or death. The medical examiner, law enforcement and first responders need to clear the scene before any cleanup starts.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Block access for children and pets, then close the door. Do not walk through blood or fluids.
  3. Leave the cleanup to professionals. Household cleaners spread contamination and set stains into floors and walls.
  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. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.
Step by step

From Start to Finish, Biohazard Clean Up in Winston-Govans

The biohazard cleanup process follows the same safe order for every job, from the first call to the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Share what happened. You and the technicians agree on the scope after they inspect the scene and take photos.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    The affected area is sealed off with plastic sheeting so contamination does not spread to other rooms.

  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

    Every surface is cleaned and treated with EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectant.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

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

  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

    The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

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