Biohazard situations can be distressing, dangerous, and highly disruptive. Whether the result of a crime scene, an unattended death, or exposure to infectious materials, these events require immediate attention from trained professionals. PuroClean of Waterford Township provides professional biohazard cleanup services with speed, discretion, and care—protecting your health, property, and peace of mind.
What Qualifies as a Biohazard?
A biohazard is any biological material that poses a health risk to humans or animals. Common examples include:
- Blood and bodily fluids
- Pathogenic waste
- Animal droppings or remains
- Chemicals or drug residues
- Virus or bacteria contamination (e.g., COVID-19, Hepatitis, HIV)
These substances can be found at trauma scenes, homes impacted by hoarding, and even in offices following infectious outbreaks. They require specialized removal and disinfection protocols to prevent the spread of disease and comply with local regulations.

Step-by-Step Biohazard Cleanup Process
1. Emergency Assessment
We provide 24/7 emergency response and assess the contamination site for potential hazards, creating a tailored remediation plan.
2. Containment Measures
To prevent cross-contamination, we isolate the affected area using barriers, HEPA filters, and negative air systems when necessary.
3. Safe Removal of Contaminants
Our trained professionals use industry-approved PPE and medical-grade equipment to remove biological materials safely and effectively.
4. Disinfection and Sanitization
We apply EPA-registered disinfectants to thoroughly sanitize all exposed surfaces, equipment, and fixtures.
5. Odor Elimination
Powerful deodorization methods—including ozone and hydroxyl systems—remove lingering smells from the environment.
6. Restoration
When necessary, we repair or replace structural elements such as drywall, flooring, or insulation to return your space to pre-event conditions.
7. Disposal
All hazardous waste is transported and disposed of in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
