Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago: What It Is and What It Covers

The safe disposal, removal and disinfection of bodily fluids, blood, tissue and other hazardous materials after an accident, crime, death, sewage backup or hoarding situation is biohazard cleanup.

Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma 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

What to Do Before Using Biohazard Cleaning Services in 46304

For most people, this happens only once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 351-0904
  1. Call 911 if anyone is hurt or has died. Law enforcement, first responders and the medical examiner must release the scene before cleanup can begin.
  2. Keep away from the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Do not walk through blood or fluids.
  3. Do not try to clean it yourself. Contamination spreads and stains become embedded in flooring and walls when household cleaning products are used.
  4. Call your insurance company. Tell your insurer about the loss, confirm coverage for biohazard cleanup and record your claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. A description of what occurred and where contamination is located lets the cleanup team make a plan.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in Chicagoland Homes and Businesses

The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.

Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards

Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis A are risks in raw sewage, and moisture may lead to mold on materials within 24 to 48 hours.

Bloodborne Pathogens

HIV and hepatitis B and C may remain in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

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

Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Is Done in Chicagoland

The biohazard cleanup process uses a safe, set sequence for every job, from your first phone conversation to the closing inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Explain the situation. Technicians examine and photograph the area, then confirm the work scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    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.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Hospital-grade disinfectant registered by the EPA is applied after all surfaces are cleaned.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Air scrubbers, ozone or hydroxyl address odor where it begins, while vents receive inspection.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Tracking records accompany contained waste to an authorized medical waste treatment facility.

  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

    Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
