Our Biohazard Cleanup Process in North Metro Atlanta

  • Assessment and Planning. Our process begins with a plan. We thoroughly assess the contamination and create a safe and effective biohazard remediation plan. 
  • Removal of Infectious Materials. All potentially infectious materials are carefully removed from the site. Hazardous medical waste is handled in compliance with OSHA regulations, appropriately processed, and sent to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator. 
  • Removal of Porous Materials. Porous materials such as carpet and bedding are removed following industry standards and government regulations. All other non-hazardous affected materials are either removed or professionally decontaminated and sanitized. 
  • Sealing of Remaining Materials. Remaining materials such as drywall and flooring may be sealed, usually for cosmetic reasons, to cover any stains from the incident.

Planning and Organization

Our biohazard cleanup process begins with a thorough assessment of the affected area to create a tailored remediation plan. We evaluate the level of contamination and determine the appropriate containment measures to ensure safe and effective biohazard removal. Our team works with you to inform you of the action plan and timeline for remediation.

Safety as a Priority

Safety is the top priority in every biohazard cleanup job. Our trained technicians wear specialized personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow OSHA safety standards throughout the cleanup process. We also set up containment to ensure that the biohazard doesn’t spread, protecting both your family or employees and the property.

Medical Waste Removal

When dealing with hazardous medical waste, including bodily fluids, spinal fluid, or other medical materials, we adhere to OSHA regulations for safe handling and disposal. All hazardous waste is transported to a licensed medical waste incinerator, ensuring that it is destroyed properly and safely, without posing any further risks to health or the environment.

Thorough Cleanup and Decontamination

Our biohazard cleanup process involves the careful removal of all affected porous materials, such as carpets or bedding, following industry standards and local regulations. Non-porous surfaces are disinfected by applying powerful cleaners, allowing them to soak before scrubbing to ensure thorough decontamination. We repeat this process as needed to guarantee a safe and sterile environment.

Deodorization

In some cases, even after the biohazard has been cleaned, odors may persist. Our deodorization services include advanced techniques such as hydroxyl and ozone treatments, which are highly effective at neutralizing persistent odors caused by mold, sewage, or other biological contaminants. We assess the situation and use the appropriate method to ensure your property smells fresh and clean once again.
