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

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

Other names include biohazard remediation, bio hazard cleaning, bio cleanup and trauma cleanup. Professional biohazard cleanup goes further than deep cleaning: technicians wear personal protective equipment, find every place contamination reached, remove porous materials that cannot be disinfected and treat the affected areas until they are back to a livable condition.

First steps

Before Using Biohazard Cleaning Services in 60074: What to Do

For most people, this happens only once. Your health, claim and final cleanup cost are protected by the first actions you take.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. If a person is hurt or has died, call 911. Before cleanup can start, the medical examiner or coroner, along with law enforcement and first responders, must release the location.
  2. Remain outside the affected area. Close the door and keep children and pets away. Avoid stepping in fluids or blood.
  3. Do not attempt your own cleanup. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
  4. Call your insurance company. Report the loss, ask about biohazard cleanup coverage and write down the claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Tell the cleanup team about the event and all impacted rooms to help them prepare.

Health and safety

Chicagoland Biohazards and Their Serious Health Risks in Homes and Workplaces

The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Raw sewage carries E. coli, salmonella and hepatitis A, and wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.

Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards

Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.

Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Is Done in Chicagoland

Each job follows the same safe biohazard cleanup process, beginning with your call and ending with the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    You start by describing the situation. After technicians photograph and inspect the scene, they agree on the scope with you.

  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

    When infectious materials enter porous items such as drywall, carpet or pad, those items are cut away and contained as medical waste, with nothing left behind.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

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

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

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

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
