Unattended Death Cleanup

The odor is caused by volatile organic compounds released during decomposition. These gases expand and force microscopic biological particles into drywall, wood, and ventilation systems. Normal air fresheners will not work.

We remove the physical source of the contamination first, then seal the affected structural wood with specialized enzymatic paint. Finally, we run industrial hydroxyl and ozone generators to destroy odor molecules floating in the air.

We strongly advise against it. Entering the space exposes you to airborne pathogens and severe psychological trauma. Wait for our certified technicians who are equipped with full Tyvek suits and respirators.

Usually, yes. Biofluids follow gravity and quickly seep through carpets, padding, and subflooring. We must cut out and dispose of any porous material that has absorbed the contamination to guarantee safety.

Depending on how long the individual was undiscovered and the extent of the fluid spread, remediation typically takes anywhere from one to three full days to ensure complete sanitation.

Absolutely. Our crews undergo rigorous training in both OSHA-compliant biological hazard abatement and compassionate communication, ensuring the situation is handled with the utmost respect.
