Biohazard cleaning explained

What Biohazard Cleanup in Roanoke Means and Includes

Biohazard cleanup safely removes and disinfects blood, tissue, bodily fluids and hazardous materials, then disposes of them following crime, death, accidents, hoarding or a sewage backup.

It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup. 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.

First steps

How to Prepare for Biohazard Cleaning Services in 24016

Few people encounter this more than once. Your health, claim and final cleanup cost are protected by the first actions you take.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. Call 911 if anyone is hurt or has died. Before cleanup can start, the medical examiner, along with law enforcement and first responders, must release the location.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Keep your feet away from blood and fluids.
  3. Do not try to clean it yourself. Household cleaners spread contamination and set stains into floors and walls.
  4. Call your insurance company. Ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered when you report the loss, then note the insurance claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Explain the situation and identify each affected room so cleanup can be planned.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in Greater Roanoke Homes and Businesses

Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.

Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards

Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.

Step by step

The Biohazard Clean Up Process in Greater Roanoke, Step by Step

Each job follows the same safe biohazard cleanup process, beginning with your call and ending with the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Explain the situation. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree the scope with you.

  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

    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.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

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

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.

  7. 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.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    A contractor you choose, or one used by your insurance company, can restore flooring and drywall that were removed.
