At Biohazard Plus, we understand the complexities involved in biohazard remediation and are committed to providing the highest level of expertise, empathy, and professionalism in our field.

Understanding Crime Scene Cleanup

Crime scene cleanup involves the meticulous process of cleaning, disinfecting, and restoring a location following a traumatic event such as a homicide, suicide, or accidental death. In addition to emotional distress, these situations often present serious health risks due to the presence of blood and other bodily fluids, which can harbor infectious diseases.

The Importance of Professional Cleanup

Attempting to clean up after a crime scene without professional assistance can lead to several complications:

• Health Hazards: Blood and other biological materials are biohazards that require specialized knowledge and equipment to manage safely.
• Legal Considerations: Improper disposal of hazardous materials can lead to legal ramifications, further complicating an already difficult situation.
• Emotional Strain: Being present in a crime scene or attempting cleanup can trigger severe emotional trauma for individuals related to the incident.

2. Secure the Area

Before commencing any work, we'll secure the area to ensure that unauthorized individuals do not enter the scene, thereby preserving evidence for law enforcement if necessary.

3. Cleanup and Decontamination

Using industry-leading techniques and EPA-registered disinfectants, our team meticulously cleans and decontaminates affected areas, including removing all biohazardous materials safely.

4. Restoration

Once the area is sanitized, we proceed with restoration to return the space to its original condition, focusing on structural cleaning and odor removal to ensure it is safe and habitable.
