Biohazard Cleanup in Schenectady: Meaning and Coverage

After crimes, deaths, accidents, a sewage backup or hoarding situations, biohazard cleanup means safe removal, disinfection and disposal of tissue, blood, bodily fluids and infectious or hazardous materials.

Bio cleanup, trauma cleanup, bio hazard cleaning and biohazard remediation describe the same work. Professional biohazard cleanup goes further than deep cleaning: technicians wear personal protective equipment, find every place contamination reached, remove porous materials that cannot be disinfected and treat the affected areas until they are back to a livable condition.

First steps

Steps to Take Before Biohazard Cleaning Services Begin in 12305

For most people, this happens only once. Your health, claim and final cleanup cost are protected by the first actions you take.

Call (888) 351-0904
  1. If a person is hurt or has died, call 911. Wait for first responders, law enforcement and the medical examiner or coroner to release the area before beginning cleanup.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Close the door and keep children and pets away. Avoid stepping in fluids or blood.
  3. Do not try to clean it yourself. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
  4. Call your insurance company. Report the loss, ask about biohazard cleanup coverage and write down the 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 Greater Albany Homes and Businesses

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

Why Regular Household Cleaners Are Not Enough

Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

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

Bloodborne Pathogens

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

Step by step

The Biohazard Clean Up Process in Greater Albany, Step by Step

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

    Describe what occurred. 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

    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

    Each surface receives cleaning and an EPA-registered disinfectant made for hospital use.

  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

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

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    A contractor you choose, or one used by your insurance company, can restore flooring and drywall that were removed.
