Biohazard Cleanup Process:

1. Our process begins with a plan. We thoroughly assess the contamination and create a safe and effective biohazard remediation plan. 
2. We carefully remove all potentially infectious materials from the site and handle hazardous medical waste in compliance with OSHA regulations.
3. We remove porous materials like carpet and bedding according to industry standards and government regulations. All other non-hazardous affected materials are either removed or professionally decontaminated and sanitized. 
4. Remaining materials, such as drywall and flooring, may be sealed to cover any stains from the incident, usually for cosmetic reasons.

Planning & Organization

First, we thoroughly assess the situation and the affected area (s). Then, we determine the level of containment needed and inform you of the action plan.

Safety as a Priority in Des Moines, IA

It is critical to perform biohazard clean-up with particular attention to safety, industry, and OSHA standards. Our trained technicians wear specialized personal protective equipment to keep themselves safe. They also contain the area and take the appropriate steps to keep you and your family or employees safe.

Medical Waste Removal

Hazardous medical waste, such as peritoneal, amniotic, spinal, and other bodily fluids, is handled following OSHA regulations and sent to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator.

Thorough Cleanup & Decontamination

We will adhere to industry standards and state regulations by removing all affected porous materials and safely discarding all other infectious materials. When treating non-porous surfaces, we dry the affected area before applying a disinfectant. After allowing the disinfectant to soak, we scrub, repeating the process to disinfect the space.

Deodorization

Usually, after cleaning the biohazard and sanitizing the area, odors tend to dissipate. However, our crew will determine whether further deodorization is necessary. If so, we use hydroxyls or ozone to eliminate the odor.
