During a sudden and unexpected tragic event, a quick and expedient cleanup is most helpful. Often times family members or friends may offer to help clean; however, this is never recommended. The visual viewing places an imprint in the mind which creates emotional scars and memories that can take years to forget. The sooner the contaminations are removed, the sooner loved ones can begin the healing process.

• Homicide & Crime Scene Cleanup

Since a homicide requires diligent investigation procedures by the responding police authorities, the cleanup requires more expertise. Trained technicians must fully understand how to clean fingerprint dust, formaldehydes, and even, in rare cases, tear gas. Our technicians, having years or training in these matters, use these techniques in addition to the clean up of bio-remediation.
 

• Unattended Death Cleanup

In an unattended death, the person may have died of natural causes, however, the death goes undiscovered for several days, sometimes weeks, and on occasion even months. The amount of odor can be overwhelming and is not curable by just opening windows and using deodorizers. The remediation of odor removal, which our technicians have been performing this type of cleanup for years, requires specific techniques and extensive treatments to bring the property back to a habitable condition.

Usually, due to a vehicle accident, the roadways can become contaminated. How the fluids embed into the road surfaces is misunderstood. Since cements and blacktops are porous and very absorbent, they require certain techniques to remove the contaminates. 

Animal odor is by far one of the most stubborn odor to remove. Once embedded in the flooring and in the walls, the odor will linger for years. Our technicians know the most effective ways on how to identify, treat, and remove this odor from the property.

Often this involves property that has been neglected over many years causing the unmaintained structure to look fatigued and be unsafe. To begin reconstruction, we first send in one crew that cleans up the property. Then another specialized crew performs any construction needed to bring the property back to a safe, habitable condition. The reconstruction techniques often enhances and beautifies the property beyond its original initial state.

This type of clean up is largely due to the behavior of one who has a hoarding disorder. This person cannot decide on what is to be thrown away and has an imbalance of values as to what to keep and what to discard. In the midst of the indecision, he becomes polarized not to let anything go. The piles of trash can grow deep, usually one to two feet high; and then often times there will be walkways that lead only to the kitchen, to the bathroom, and to their sleep area. Our technicians have cleaned hundreds of these and have learned the most important art and tact of aligning themselves with the hoarder. The relationship between them is the key to helping the person to get back on the road to recovery and normalcy.

A vehicle becomes contaminated during an accident, suicide, and/or homicide. Because the vehicle's interior has many different materials, i.e., cloth seats, cloth headliners, plastic dashboards, plastic center consoles, carpet floors, and metal surfaces, we are aware of what parts can be cleaned and what parts need to be disposed. Our technicians are very experienced and well-trained on how to remediate the contamination and remove the odors.

Diseases can occur due to many bacteria that can be dangerous and contagious. Over the years we have become educated on what these are. We are able to locate their source, and we know the proper remediation procedures and the incubation time periods.
