Biohazard Cleanup in Acton: Meaning and Coverage

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.

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.

First steps

How to Prepare for Biohazard Cleaning Services in 01718

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

Call (888) 440-9227
  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. Remain outside the affected area. Shut the door, and do not let pets or children enter. Keep your feet away from blood and fluids.
  3. Avoid cleaning the area on your own. Contamination spreads and stains become embedded in flooring and walls when household cleaning products are used.
  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

Greater Boston Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces

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

Fluids, gases and bacteria from decomposition can penetrate flooring and move into other rooms through ventilation.

Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards

Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.

Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Greater Boston, 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

    Share what happened. You and the technicians agree on the scope after they inspect the scene and take photos.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    Plastic sheeting isolates the affected area and stops contaminants from reaching additional rooms.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.

  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

    The odor source is treated using ozone, hydroxyl or air scrubbers, and the vents are also examined.

  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

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