Our Process

  1. 1

    Assessment and Planning

    Our team begins with a comprehensive assessment to identify affected areas and materials. We develop a strategic plan tailored to safely remove biohazards while preventing future risks.

  2. 2

    Containment for Safety

    Establishing containment zones is crucial to preventing cross-contamination. Our technicians use advanced sealing practices to ensure that biohazards do not spread beyond the initially impacted area.

  3. 3

    Safe Removal of Hazards

    Using specialized tools and PPE, our team carefully removes bloodborne pathogens, contaminated items, and any saturated structural materials, adhering to all health and safety regulations.

  4. 4

    Disinfection and Decontamination

    We use EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectants to thoroughly clean and sanitize all surfaces, coupled with ATP surface testing to ensure that decontamination is complete and effective.

  5. 5

    Final Inspection and Clearance

    A final inspection by our certified biohazard technicians confirms that the area is safe for reoccupancy. We provide documentation for personal records and insurance purposes.
