Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup is more involved than deep cleaning.

Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
Calls for emergency service are taken around the clock, while unmarked vehicles keep the situation private from neighbors and building personnel.
There is no judgment around neglect or hoarding, only consideration for your family during a difficult time. Documents, keepsakes and photographs are saved for you.
