Our Biohazard Cleanup Process in Houston, TX

• Our process begins with a plan. We thoroughly assess the contamination and create a safe and effective biohazard remediation plan. 
• 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. 
• 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. 
• 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 process begins with a comprehensive assessment of the incident and the affected area(s). This step allows us to identify the extent of contamination and determine the appropriate course of action.

We evaluate the level of containment required to prevent cross-contamination and ensure the highest level of safety. Once the assessment is complete, we provide you with a detailed action plan, outlining the steps we will take to restore the area to a safe and clean condition.

Safety as a Priority

Safety is at the core of every biohazard removal project we undertake. Adhering to strict OSHA and industry standards, our technicians are trained to handle hazardous materials with the utmost care and professionalism.

hey wear specialized personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect themselves during the process and establish containment zones to prevent the spread of contaminants. These measures are designed to protect you, your family, or your employees from potential health risks throughout the remediation process.

Medical Waste Removal

Handling hazardous medical waste requires precision and compliance with strict regulations. We safely manage the removal of materials such as spinal fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, and other bodily fluids, ensuring that all handling aligns with OSHA guidelines.

Once collected, this waste is securely transported to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator for proper disposal, effectively eliminating any risk to public health or the environment.

Thorough Cleanup and Decontamination

Our cleanup and decontamination process is meticulous and thorough to ensure safety and cleanliness. Porous materials that have been compromised are removed and disposed of in accordance with industry standards and state regulations.

Infectious materials are handled with care and discarded securely. For non-porous surfaces, we clean and disinfect the area by applying a disinfectant, allowing it to soak, and then scrubbing the surface. This process is repeated as necessary to ensure the space is fully decontaminated and safe for use.

Deodorization

In most cases, odors caused by biohazards naturally dissipate once the area has been cleaned and sanitized. However, when stubborn odors persist, additional deodorization measures may be required.

Our team evaluates the situation carefully and, if needed, uses advanced odor-removal technologies such as hydroxyl generators or ozone treatments. These methods effectively neutralize odors at their source, leaving the area smelling fresh and clean.
