Biohazard Cleanup in Charleston: 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. 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.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks Linked to Biohazards in Greater Charleston Businesses and Homes

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

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Hepatitis A, salmonella and E. coli travel in raw sewage, while materials left wet may develop mold in 24 to 48 hours.

Bloodborne Pathogens

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

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

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

Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards

Surface cleaning with sprays or bleach misses fluids that have entered carpet padding, drywall and the subfloor. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Is Done in Greater Charleston

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. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree 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

    Porous materials that absorbed infectious materials, such as carpet, pad and drywall, are cut out and sealed as medical waste so nothing is 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

    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

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