Biohazard Cleanup in Cordova: What It Is and What It Covers

Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.

It is also called bio hazard cleaning, biohazard remediation, trauma cleanup or bio cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup is more involved than deep cleaning. Technicians use personal protective equipment, locate every contaminated place, remove porous material that disinfection cannot save and treat affected areas until each reaches a livable condition.

First steps

Before Using Biohazard Cleaning Services in 38018: What to Do

Few people encounter this more than once. Taking these initial actions safeguards your health, insurance claim and final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 351-0904
  1. If a person is hurt or has died, call 911. The medical examiner, law enforcement and first responders need to clear the scene before any cleanup starts.
  2. Remain outside the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Avoid stepping in fluids or blood.
  3. Leave the cleanup to professionals. Contamination spreads and stains become embedded in flooring and walls when household cleaning products are used.
  4. Call your insurance company. Report the loss, ask about biohazard cleanup coverage and write down the claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Describe what happened and which rooms are affected so the cleanup team can plan.

Health and safety

Greater Memphis Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces

Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.

Why Household Cleaners Do Not Work

Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.

Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Greater Memphis, Step by Step

The biohazard cleanup process follows the same safe order for every job, from the first call to the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Explain the situation. You and the technicians agree on the scope after they inspect the scene and take photos.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    To prevent contamination from moving elsewhere, the affected area is closed off using plastic sheeting.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Each surface receives cleaning and an EPA-registered disinfectant made for hospital use.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Odor is treated at the source with air scrubbers, hydroxyl or ozone, and vents are checked.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Tracking paperwork follows sealed waste to a permitted facility where medical waste is treated.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    A final check, with ATP testing when necessary, confirms a livable condition. You then receive records and photographs for the claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    Your own contractor or a vendor working with your insurer can replace any removed drywall or flooring.
