Biohazard Cleanup in Chicago: Meaning and Coverage

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.

You may also hear it called trauma cleanup, bio cleanup, biohazard remediation or bio hazard cleaning. Deep cleaning alone is not professional biohazard cleanup. Technicians wear personal protective equipment, track where contamination traveled, discard porous items beyond disinfection and treat all affected areas until the property returns to a livable condition.

First steps

Before Using Biohazard Cleaning Services in 60647: What to Do

Most people only face this once. These first steps protect your health, your insurance claim and the final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 440-9227
  1. Phone 911 if someone is hurt or has died. The medical examiner or coroner, law enforcement and first responders need to clear the scene before any cleanup starts.
  2. Remain outside the affected area. Shut the door, and do not let pets or children enter. Avoid stepping in fluids or blood.
  3. Avoid cleaning the area on your own. Using household cleaners may move contamination around and cause stains to set in walls and floors.
  4. Call your insurance company. Ask whether biohazard cleanup is covered when you report the loss, then note the insurance claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Explain the situation and identify each affected room so cleanup can be planned.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in Chicagoland Homes and Businesses

People can become seriously ill because biohazards are health hazards, and contamination often extends beyond the areas you can see.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

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

Limits of Household Cleaners for Biohazards

Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. Contamination left behind causes bacteria and odors to return, so decontamination services take out the source.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV can live in blood. According to the CDC, hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.

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 describe the incident. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree the scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    The affected area is sealed off with plastic sheeting so contamination does not spread to other rooms.

  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

    Hospital-grade disinfectant registered by the EPA is applied after all surfaces are cleaned.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    The odor source is treated using ozone, hydroxyl or air scrubbers, and the vents are also examined.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    The area is checked, including ATP testing where needed, so the space is back to a livable condition, and you get photos and records for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

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

What determines the price of cleanup?

The initial reference is published cost ranges for the nation. Your price is determined by the cleanup company once affected materials, rooms and disposal needs have been assessed.

Once an authority releases the property, whether police, the medical examiner, coroner or another official, you can agree on a cleanup start time with the crew.
