Blood is a biohazard, even when it has dried. We remove it, decontaminate the area to OSHA bloodborne pathogen standards, treat any odor and document the work. Locally owned and operated, based in Warner Robins and serving all of Georgia.
Blood can carry pathogens such as Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV. OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogens Standard treats every scene involving blood or body fluids as potentially infectious, and so do we.
Why it matters: the CDC says Hepatitis B can stay infectious on a surface for at least 7 days. You can’t tell by looking what a stain carries, which is why a mop and bucket aren’t enough. What we don’t do: we don’t rebuild or repair.
Most blood cleanups take one to three days. The time depends on how much blood there is, how large the area is, and whether it reached carpet, subfloor or other porous materials that have to come out.
Timing also depends on how early we can get on site, whether materials must be special-ordered, our crew’s availability and other jobs that day. You get a realistic estimate before we start, and an update if something changes.
Disposal manifests are available on request once the waste facility returns them to us. Biohazard work carries real risks, and no cleanup can promise a space is 100% risk-free. What we can promise is that the work is done to OSHA and state standards, by trained people, with every step documented.
Most of our blood cleanup calls follow a traumatic injury or a death. Whatever the cause, we handle it with the same care and discretion.
For a very small amount, you may be tempted to. But blood can be hiding in grout, carpet backing and cracks you can’t see, and wiping can push it deeper. If you’re not sure, call us and we’ll tell you honestly what the job needs.
Everyday household cleaners aren’t designed to inactivate bloodborne pathogens. Professionals use EPA-registered disinfectants, the correct contact time, and proper disposal of everything that touched the scene.
Often, yes. Homeowner’s and renter’s policies commonly cover biohazard cleanup, and we work directly with adjusters.
No. We remove and decontaminate the affected materials. We don’t rebuild or repair, so a contractor handles the reconstruction once our work is finished.
