The Importance of Crime Cleanup Services

An environment can get contaminated with toxic substances left from the scene of a crime, which can have serious health risks. DIY cleanup methods and traditional cleaning companies aren’t equipped to safely handle these situations, potentially putting people and pets at even greater harm. In crime scenes where harmful substances and materials are left behind, cleanup duty is best handled by professional crime scene cleaners. Some examples include blood, urine, and chemicals. Handling deceased individuals may be needed in some cases. We help minimize health hazards using measures such as personal protective equipment (PPE), EPA-approved disinfectants, and compliance with OSHA safety regulations. More than technical skills and expertise, our team values compassion and stays respectful towards the victims. Crime scene cleanup services include:

  • Disinfection and decontamination
  • Decomposition cleanup
  • Fingerprint dust removal
  • Infection and odor control
  • Tear gas remediation

The Process of Cleaning a Crime Scene

Cleaning up a crime scene is much more detailed than a traditional cleaning job. Because blood and other substances are usually present, it's crucial to safely and completely remove them by using the right equipment and disinfectants. Throughout this process, our crime scene cleaners gear up in protective clothing to keep themselves safe. The job can take anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the severity and location of the crime. For example, a few hours may be all the time it takes to clean a bathroom, while a couple of days would be needed to clean a carpeted living room. Crime scene cleanup services includes several steps:

Assessment of Crime Scene

An assessment of the crime scene is the step of the cleanup process. This in-depth evaluation is completed by a professional crime scene technician, who'll also ensure compliance with OSHA regulations. Doing this helps us determine the most effective solution for restoring safety to the environment.

Containment of the Scene

The next step is to contain the area so contamination doesn’t spread to other parts of the building. We isolate the crime scene using plastic sheets and other physical barriers to help minimize health and safety hazards.

Removing Contaminated Objects From the Scene

After the scene has been isolated, crime scene cleaners will remove any materials, furniture, or waste that may contain bloodborne pathogens, drug residue, and other substances. We discard items that are extremely contaminated.

Cleaning and Disinfecting the Scene

The scene is cleaned and disinfected with bleach, peroxide, and EPA-grade disinfectants. Enzyme solutions are used to re-liquefy dried blood and other substances in order to completely remove them from the surface.

One Last Verification

We make one final check to ensure that the area is fully safe and disinfected to occupy again. This is done by using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing procedures, which detect any remaining biological residue.

The Importance of Working With Crime Scene Cleaners in

It can be difficult to move forward after experiencing a crime in your home or workplace. Instead of cleaning the aftermath, those affected should spend time healing instead. By letting crime scene cleaners handle cleanup, you can have more time to process your feelings and move forward. Traditional cleaning companies aren't equipped to handle extreme cleaning situations like crime scenes. In the case of a homicide or drug lab, harmful substances should be removed by professional crime scene cleaners, who have the proper skills and training. Crime scene cleaners also have the emotional strength to work in sensitive circumstances.
