Biohazard cleaning explained
What Biohazard Cleanup in Elizabeth Means and Includes
Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.
You may also hear it called trauma cleanup, bio cleanup, biohazard remediation or bio hazard cleaning. Deep cleaning alone is not professional biohazard cleanup. Technicians wear personal protective equipment, track where contamination traveled, discard porous items beyond disinfection and treat all affected areas until the property returns to a livable condition.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Greater Louisville Businesses and Homes
Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
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
HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.

Step by step
How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Greater Louisville, Step by Step
From the initial call through the last inspection, the biohazard cleanup process follows a consistent order designed for safety.
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.
Containment of the Affected Area
To prevent contamination from moving elsewhere, the affected area is closed off using plastic sheeting.
Removal of Contaminated Materials
After infectious materials soak into carpet, pad, drywall or similar porous items, the affected pieces are removed and sealed for medical waste, so no affected material is left behind.
Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection
Every surface is cleaned and treated with EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectant.
Odor Removal and Air Quality
The odor source is treated using ozone, hydroxyl or air scrubbers, and the vents are also examined.
Biohazard Waste Disposal
Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.
Final Inspection and ATP Testing
A final check, with ATP testing when necessary, confirms a livable condition. You then receive records and photographs for the claim.
Repairs and Back to Normal
Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
