Biohazard Cleanup in Baltimore: Meaning and Coverage

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.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Greater Baltimore Businesses and Homes

People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.

Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work

Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.

Step by step

Step-by-Step Biohazard Clean Up in Greater Baltimore

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

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

    Porous materials that absorbed infectious materials, such as carpet, pad and drywall, are cut out and sealed as medical waste so nothing is 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

    The odor source is treated using ozone, hydroxyl or air scrubbers, and the vents are also examined.

  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.
