SUICIDE CLEANUP & HOMICIDE CLEANUP IN AUSTIN, TX

Our Process

To ensure that your home or business can be safely occupied following a biohazard event, we follow a detailed and meticulous mitigation process. Our approach ensures thorough decontamination and restoration of the affected area.

Here is a step-by-step overview of our process:

Assessment and Planning

Our process starts with a detailed evaluation of the scene to pinpoint all potential hazards. This crucial first step helps us gauge the level of contamination and identify the specific biohazards involved. Using this information, we craft a tailored action plan that addresses the unique requirements of the situation. This plan details the precise steps we will follow to ensure the safe and effective cleanup and restoration of the affected area.

Isolation

To prevent cross-contamination, we isolate the work area from the rest of the property. This involves setting up containment barriers and using negative air pressure systems if necessary. Isolating the affected area is crucial to ensuring that biohazardous materials do not spread to other parts of the home or business during the cleanup process.

Removal of Contaminated Items

We systematically remove all contaminated items from the scene. This includes personal belongings, furniture, flooring, and any other materials that have been exposed to biohazardous substances. Items that can be salvaged are cleaned and disinfected following strict OSHA guidelines. Non-salvageable items are safely disposed of according to regulatory standards for biohazardous waste.

Decontamination

Once all visible traces of biological materials are removed, we thoroughly decontaminate all affected surfaces. We use hospital-grade disinfectants to eliminate pathogens and ensure that all surfaces are sanitized. This step is critical to removing any remaining biohazardous materials and preventing potential health risks.

Continuous Testing

Throughout the decontamination process, we continuously test for the presence of biohazards. This ongoing testing ensures that no contaminants are missed and that the area is thoroughly decontaminated. We use advanced testing methods to verify that all surfaces are safe and free from biohazards before we complete the job.

Final Steps

Depending on the extent of contamination, additional steps may be necessary to ensure complete remediation. These can include:

• Odor Removal: We use specialized equipment and techniques to remove any lingering odors caused by the biohazard event.

• Sealing Porous Surfaces: Porous materials like wood framing and subfloors may absorb biohazardous substances. We seal these surfaces to prevent any future contamination and to ensure long-term safety.

• Other Measures: Any other necessary measures to restore the area to a safe and habitable condition are performed as needed.

Final Inspection and Clearance

After the cleanup process is complete, we conduct a final inspection to ensure that all areas meet our stringent safety and cleanliness standards. We provide a detailed report of the work performed and the measures taken to ensure the property is safe for reoccupation.

Throughout the entire mitigation process, we adhere to OSHA guidelines concerning bloodborne pathogens, personal protective equipment (PPE), and infectious waste disposal. Our commitment to these standards ensures the highest level of safety for our clients and our team.
