How a Biohazard Cleanup Service Works a Site in West Highlands
2. Arrive discreetly
The team arrives in an unmarked vehicle and works quietly. Protective gear goes on at the door and the work area is isolated right away.
3. Clean before disinfecting
Detergent lifts residue from every surface first. Disinfectant does not work well on dirt, so this step comes before the chemical treatment.
4. Deodorize and document
Odor sources are treated, not masked. The team photographs and records the work so insurers, landlords and families have what they need.
