Describe what occurred. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree the scope with you.
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.
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.
Every surface is cleaned and treated with EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectant.
Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.
Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.
The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.
Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
Published cost guides put most residential biohazard cleanup jobs between $1,800 and $8,000. Minor blood jobs can cost less than $1,000, while large work involving sewage, hoarding or decomposition may go beyond $20,000. An on-site assessment determines the actual price.

Victims of violent crime can ask the Kentucky Crime Victims Compensation Board about cleanup. State law lists crime scene cleanup at the victim's home or business, with a short time limit, so ask early. Insurance is usually checked first.
The estate can often cover death cleanup expenses. A family member or the estate executor normally manages this task.
In rental units and common areas, the owner or property manager usually arranges and pays for cleanup.
Insurance generally covers events that are both sudden and accidental. Coverage usually does not apply to hoarding or ongoing neglect. Speak with your insurance company before cleanup begins.
You can call anytime. A cleanup specialist can walk you through the process for your property.
Some remain viable for quite a while. According to the CDC, surfaces can support hepatitis B for at least seven days, so you should treat dried blood as infectious.
Body removal is completed either by a funeral home or by the medical examiner or coroner. Responsibility for later cleaning belongs to the family or property owner. A biohazard cleanup company is what most choose.
Most cleanup projects are completed on site in one to three days. Several days to two weeks may be needed for decomposition, major scenes or hoarding cleanouts.
Illness caused by sewage germs often begins in one to three days, though certain infections develop later. Keep away, and prevent pets or children from entering.
