Health and safety

Why Household Biohazards Pose Serious Health Risks in Cabrini-Green

People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.

Bloodborne Pathogens

HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.

Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards

Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.

First steps

Before Calling Biohazard Cleaners in Cabrini-Green: What to Do First

Few people encounter this more than once. Your health, claim and final cleanup cost are protected by the first actions you take.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. If a person is hurt or has died, call 911. Before cleanup can start, the medical examiner or coroner, along with law enforcement and first responders, must release the location.
  2. Stay out of the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Avoid stepping in fluids or blood.
  3. Do not attempt your own cleanup. Household cleaners spread contamination and set stains into floors and walls.
  4. Call your insurance company. Tell your insurer about the loss, ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered 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.
Step by step

A Step-by-Step Look at Biohazard Cleanup in Cabrini-Green

The biohazard cleanup process follows the same safe order for every job, from the first call to the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    The caller describes what occurred. After technicians photograph and inspect the scene, they agree on the 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

    When infectious materials enter porous items such as drywall, carpet or pad, those items are cut away and contained as medical waste, with nothing left behind.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    A permitted medical waste treatment facility receives the sealed material along with its tracking documents.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    Where needed, ATP testing helps check that the space has returned to a livable condition. You also get photographs and documentation for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    Your own contractor or a vendor working with your insurer can replace any removed drywall or flooring.
