Our Process
We handle cleanup tasks indoors (buildings, vehicles) and outdoors (pools, patios). These include but are not limited to:
- Sites where a murder has occurred
- Sites where a suicide has occurred
- Sites where a body has decomposed (putrefaction sites)
- Sites where a violent attack has occurred (blood and bodily fluids are present)
- Sites where human fecal matter is present
- Sites where blood is present
We encounter diverse job sites, honing expertise in trauma cleaning, particularly as a crime scene cleanup company. Before commencing work, we establish containment barriers to prevent cross-contamination. Sites typically feature unaffected, transition, and work areas, with precautions to avoid cross-contamination and designated storage zones for cleaning supplies and equipment.
Our technicians are fully equipped to handle potentially pathogenic and hazardous materials. Our full PPE (personal protective equipment) gear includes:
- Full-face respirators with eye protection
- Full body suits
- Gloves
- Boots
- Hard hats & knee pads
Biocides (Antimicrobials)
We prioritize decontamination by using biocides, or antimicrobials, to eradicate microorganisms while ensuring low toxicity.
Our crime scene cleanup technician selects items for cleaning based on value and replaceability. Porosity determines cleanability — while semi-porous materials like drywall are treatable, saturated items like carpets may require disposal.
Our cleanup process involves applying biocide, removing contaminated materials, detergent cleaning, rinsing, secondary cleaning, and final biocide application. Occupants must vacate during biocide application. The process aims to effectively sanitize spaces, adhering to EPA regulations and ensuring safety during and after cleanup.

Special Considerations
Odor
In Florida's humid, hot climates, odor and decay thrive, aiding our technicians in promptly diagnosing odor issues. Our primary odor controls, oxidizers, require cautious application due to their potential fabric color alteration and fiber damage.
Automobiles
Automobile upholstery and carpets are typically not cleanable due to contamination penetration. When cleaning crime scenes, we employ containment measures to capture excess water runoff while washing vehicle exteriors.
Tear Gas & Luminol
Before cleaning tear gas and luminol sites, we'll verify its composition with the authorities. Tear gas cleanup usually involves HEPA vacuuming, akin to removing drywall dust.
At crime scenes, we'll consult investigators to identify luminol or fingerprint dust powder and use the suitable cleaning agent accordingly.
Putrefaction Sites
Putrefaction sites yield trauma scenes with increased bodily contaminants, odor, and insect activity, necessitating extensive removal of tainted materials.
Our crime scene cleanup protocol involves cutting 6 inches beyond visible contamination on subfloors. The remaining components are cleaned, painted with encapsulating paint to seal odor, and treated using HEPA filtration, wet fogging, ozone, hydroxyl generators, thermal fogging, and drying.
Waste Disposal
We adhere to the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Standard for proper disposal according to federal, state, and local rules. Florida mandates licensing for biomedical waste generators and transporters.
Clearance Testing
Technicians use ATP testing for post-remediation verification (PRV), ensuring quick clearance in minutes and covering the affected area, including aftermath crime scene cleanup. Third-party evaluators ensure the quality of our cleanup services. If clearance fails, we re-clean at no extra cost to the client, especially for public crime scenes.
Documentation
We thoroughly document all our service jobs, including crime scene and trauma scene cleanups, in compliance with the S540 Trauma Scene Standard.
This documentation includes detailing the work performed and items removed from the scene.
If there's a need to alter the scope of work or deviate from the standard, we issue a work change notice to the client to document the agreed-upon changes.
