How do we cleanup COVID-19?

Coronavirus has swiftly obtained a reputation for being incredibly deceptive. It can endure on surfaces for up to 17 days, the C.D.C. says. People infected by the coronavirus typically don't show symptoms until nearly two weeks following infection, causing difficulty to trace and restrain. Having a trusted expert pathology and biohazard remediation company on your team is so great.

Our Biohazard Cleanup Process

​Cleaning up biohazards involves sanitizing areas and making sure to deodorize in such events where a trauma has occurred.  
Picture
Minimize the risk of spreading pathogens by allowing us to sanitize public areas of your business with our three-step process:

1. Hard surface wipe down (kill time 4 minutes)
2. U.V. light (keyboards, light switches, doorknobs, etc.)
3. Fog (kills everything microscopically still there in the air)

This three-step-process is essential if you want to get rid of things like a virus, the size of a fraction of a piece of hair split into 100 parts. Simply spraying everything down with Lysol and calling it a day is unfortunately not going to cut it. Now, you might be wondering how much this and other types of cleaning like crime scene cleanup cost? 

If you had a home with family members who have contacted COVID-19, have quarantined for the recommended amount of time. Now you would like someone to come in and do the above three-step method; then, you are probably looking at under a thousand dollars depending on how large your home is. 

If you have a business with one factory warehouse worker of say 20 people who end up testing positive for coronavirus (COVID-19), then we would come out to do the three-step process to your building. This would entail a larger area and more surfaces to wipe down and then be priced accordingly.
 
Things to note beforehand
Because the fog takes time to work, we ask that no one enter the area until two hours after the fogging occurs. Also, if you have plants, you will want to have them wrapped up beforehand, or they could die if exposed to the water-based chemicals in the fog. 

The water-based fog is harmless to humans and animals. After it dissipates leaves no residue; however, we cannot fog an area if there are terrariums or fish tanks present. Fogging would kill the inhabitants. 

Biohazard Cleanup - Certification Not Required

Though one does not need any certification to become a technician in the biohazard field, OSHA requires appropriately trained P.P.E. when dealing with bloodborne pathogens. Our technicians are all fully qualified and maintain up to date guidance from the C.D.C.

Personal Protective Equipment, also known as P.P.E., ensures the cleaners' safety by preventing the hazardous materials from entering the body through the eyes, ears, mouth, skin, or nose. The protective equipment might vary from job to job but should at a minimum contain a full-face mask, gloves, Tyvek suit, and respirator. 
Our team members are qualified in both E.P.A. ordinances and OSHA guidelines to handle appropriately and dispose of Bio-hazardous materials. At a minimum, workers are vaccinated against Hepatitis B as every scene, crime scene or not, is treated with the same universal precautions to protect against any possible bloodborne pathogens.

Crime Scene Cleanup 

Unattended death, suicide cleanup, we discreetly clean them all. Biohazard cleanup is not always a crime scene, however. We are here to aid those in a crisis and give you peace of mind when dealing with a challenging task.

​Hampton Roads communities turn to us when in need of a knowledgeable blood cleanup crew. Where all crime scene cleaners are accredited and adequately trained to handle these types of unforeseen situations.
Unattended death and suicide cleanup cost can vary admittedly by how much biohazard there is to clean up. It is never a diplomatic arrangement to set up, but we make sure our compassion comes through from the moment we first speak.

We are leading experts in crime scene cleanup and knowledgeable in preventing additional germs and bacteria, and other possible viruses from spreading. By wiping down all surfaces, we can expeditiously sterilize all areas once previously prone to infectious diseases like MARSA, Hepatitis, and C. DIFF, to name a few of the unseen biohazards other than blood. You get your work/home back as quickly as possible.

Privacy for the business or homeowner is a tremendous detail we ensure is paid attention to. We work hard to respect every situation, respectively.  Violent crimes can shake a family or business to its core on top of having to worry about the remediation of the physical damage. When blood and other bodily fluids are present, there is a risk of other harmful pathogens. Blood itself is not considered a biohazard, but the risk of infectious disease such as H.I.V. is a risk in the cleanup.

Other infectious diseases that are risked by coming into contact with blood is Hepatitis. In nineteen ninety-one, OSHA (The Occupational Safety and Health Administration) passed a series of protection standards for workers coming into contact with blood and other infection materials. BOPIM was created to enforce regulations to be adhered to in the bio clean upfield. It is stated that companies who do not adhere to these guidelines can face serious charges and fines.

OSHA's BOPIM STANDARDS GUIDELINE

Safety precautions that must be followed for crime scene cleaning companies are as follows:
1. OSHA certified practices as outlined in their guidance
2. P.P.E. (Personal Protective Equipment) is strictly enforced by all employees who come into possible contact with bloodborne pathogens or biohazard materials.
3. All employees are up to date with vaccinations
4. OSHA training required 
5. All hazardous waste is transported, disposed of, and handled adequately following OSHA standards
6. Records MUST BE KEPT for all cases and instances where a worker comes into contact with or ends up taking hazardous material

The safety of our clients, community, and team is always taken very seriously. As per OSHA guidelines, the whole staff will wear gloves, Tyvek wetsuits, full-face protection to include a full-face respirator. Being OSHA certified means we take part in regular safety meetings and are up-to-date with the field's newest innovations.

Crawl Space Sewage Cleanup

Not only do we clean up blood, but we also work on cleaning up biohazards like under the house and crawl space sewage too. There is no job that is too big or too small for us to manage, as cliche as that sounds.
You are aware of the challenges associated with accessing the crawl space in your home. There are restricted room and communicable dangers related to both animal and human feces, so strict precautions must be observed in these instances.

Our specialists can be below your residence, squirming around in crap quicker than most other service providers in the industry. Yeah, we are rather proud of that.​
When pipes in your home or business bust or crack, the results can be unfathomable. If raw sewage has flooded your home call us immediately, we are experts at this type of mess. We will get rid of it for you as quickly as possible and even be out to you in under two hours. While you might assume what you have going on could take a lot of time for a crew to cleanup, this typically is not the case. Usually, we can complete a crawl space sewage cleanup of the nasty water and sanitize the area quite fast!

How we Cleanup raw sewage

Surveying the affected area is always our first step. We can let you know if you need a professional plumber out there to identify possible continuous leaking before we can begin our remediation process. We can walk you through over the phone most of what a proposed idea would be, but to see it in person is even better, and we do provide free on site inspections. 

Removing liquid sewage is a crucial first step with the proper equipment, and right knows how we work fast to move onto step two. Getting rid of that old barrier is also a good idea in a crawl space sewage clean up job, also removing of existing moisture barriers. Everything on site will be disposed of by our team. Next is excavating at least one inch of solid contaminated materials exposed to raw sewage underneath the plastic barrier. 
Antimicrobial treatment is the process after all traces of sewage have been removed and administered to all areas previously cleaned up to include your brick foundation and any pier, all excavated areas. We also use lime in the dugout areas after antimicrobial to ensure the utmost sanitary conditions are met. Using powerful drying fans, we rid the area of any moisture left before installing a new 6-mil moisture barrier to your crawlspace. This highly efficient barrier will help in the future should you have any leaks or breaks again.​

Hoarding Cleanup & Trash Clean Out

There can be many dangers associated with hoarding cleanups. A company doing the remediation should be extremely knowledgeable and highly motivated. That is where we come in, as this can be an overwhelming task for many families to worry about independently. Hoarding cleanups present several safety hazards such as blocked fire escapes, which are the most common issues needing immediate attention in a hoarder's home.

Another safety hazard is when stuff starts getting moved around, and pathogens become airborne, which is why we are required to wear a full-face respirator. Other dangers present might also be human and animal feces and can pose a threat to the lungs. 
​Dumpster(s) on-site is what we use to gather all we are going to trash within 24 hours. After that, we remove the dumpster from your premises, and this process never takes more than 24 hours to clean up. ​Because no hoarding cleaning is the same in price, give us a call, and we are happy to give you an in-person estimate and plan to get rid of the garbage, for free!

Animal Waste Contamination Cleaning

Rat and mice can carry up to as many as 50 diseases, so proper lung protection is a must in these cleanups. As animal feces  are moved around, as they are often dried up, this creates a fine dust that is hazardous to the lungs and must not be inhaled.  
Most people think of infestation or rodents when it comes to this type of animal waste contamination cleanup. Still, we have also seen Dog and Cat contaminations, animal hoarding in the attic or basement of homes and businesses. Landlord eviction cleanups are also a lot of a biohazard scene where precautions need to be taken to remove anything even before cleaning can begin.
