Cleaning up after a crime scene investigation is a sensitive task, and it should be left to professional cleanup services. Our experts are well-equipped to handle the most hazardous residues, like tear gas contaminants, forensic residues, and drug labs, using specialized cleaning solutions and techniques to restore your safety and well-being.

Bloodborne Pathogens

Our certified professionals use hospital-grade disinfectants to clean blood spills, bodily fluids, and blood-soaked tissues to neutralize biological materials and prevent contamination with blood-borne pathogens (HBV/HCV, HIV).

Biohazard Removal

Americon’s expert cleaners in PPE comply with all OSHA/DOT protocols and safely dispose of all biological waste to licensed medical facilities for incineration. This service also includes getting rid of the contaminated carpets and furniture in specialized hazmat containers.

Decontamination and Disinfection

That’s why you need professional cleaning help, where experts use cleaners of varying strength for different surfaces and techniques to match the level of contamination. Our expert cleaners are well-equipped with all this knowledge. They thoroughly clean and disinfect the crime site and prevent the future growth of contaminants.

Americon’s professional cleaning services involve removing any lingering odors left behind, using specialized treatments like thermal fogging and ozone treatment. We make sure to eliminate all sensory reminders of the traumatic event, even at the molecular level.

Our emergency cleanup services extend to restoring the valuables and documents that you otherwise might lose to contaminant exposure. We use specialized techniques like freeze-drying or hazmat chambers to restore even the most damaged records at the crime scene.

Cost of Trauma, Crime Scene & Blood Spill Sanitization in Ohio & West PA

The cost of trauma, crime scene, and blood spill sanitization in Ohio and Western Pennsylvania depends on multiple factors, including the severity of contamination, size of the area, materials affected, and whether law enforcement or insurance procedures are involved. Cleanup teams assess these variables before providing a quote.

Ohio and Western Pennsylvania have comparable labor and disposal costs, but rural areas may incur higher travel fees. Always verify local regulations and vendor certifications. Insurance policies in these regions often cover biohazard cleanup, but deductibles and coverage limits vary.

Americon Performs Deep Trauma Scene Cleanup & Biohazard Remediation in 3 Steps

Not every cleanup ensures biohazard removal and future safety of people occupying that space. Some bloodborne pathogens (HBV, HCV, HIV)  and decomposing body VOCs [Esters, pyridine, 3-methylthio-1-propanol, and methyl(methylthio)ethyl disulfide] can stay on surfaces and contaminate the environment for weeks or even months. Here’s how Americon ensures they’re eliminated for your safety:

1. Initial Assessment & Hazard Containment

Upon arrival, our team conducts a thorough inspection to identify biohazards (e.g., bloodborne pathogens, chemical/fire/smoke residues) and assesses structural risks.

We establish containment zones using barriers and negative air pressure to prevent cross-contamination.

Photographic documentation and different readings are taken to support insurance claims and regulatory compliance.

2. Specialized Cleanup & Sanitization

Using industry-grade antimicrobial sprays and EPA-approved disinfectants, we meticulously clean and decontaminate affected surfaces, including porous materials requiring removal.

Odor eliminators are applied to neutralize persistent smells, while biohazardous waste is safely bagged, labeled, and disposed of in compliance with OSHA and local regulations.

3. Verification & Final Documentation

Post-remediation, we perform ATP testing or swab analyses to verify the absence of contaminants. A detailed report—including before/after photos, disposal manifests, and biohazard level logs—is compiled for insurance and legal records.

Equipment is retrieved, and a final walkthrough ensures the space is restored to a safe, habitable condition.

DIY Crime, Trauma Scene, or Blood Spill Cleaning Risk Pathogen Infections

Trauma cleaning must comply with OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030), requiring 8+ hours of training, PPE (gloves, masks, protective clothing), and hospital-grade disinfectants or a 1:10 bleach solution.

The ANSI/IICRC S540 standard outlines protocols for decontaminating porous materials and disposing of biohazard waste. Untrained individuals risk exposure to HBV, HCV, or HIV, which thrive in blood residues. Regular OSHA-mandated training reinforces universal precautions, ensuring all blood is treated as infectious.

Professionals mitigate liability for homeowners by adhering to these standards, using advanced techniques like HEPA filtration and enzymatic cleaners to eliminate pathogens, while untrained cleanup risks regulatory penalties and health hazards.

What to Do to Avoid Crime & Trauma Scene Biohazards & Blood Contact?

If you come across a trauma scene, here are a few things you must do to ensure your safety and the safety of everybody around you.

Leave the Area Immediately

Immediately vacate the scene because it might have pathogens and other biohazards, especially from the blood, bodily fluids, and odors released from the decomposing body.

These hazards can pose serious risks to your health and may risk cross-contamination from you to others. So do not touch anything, and block access to the area to prevent others from entering.

Call Emergency Services

Dial 911 and let the authorities know of the situation. Once the law enforcement arrives and processes the trauma and/or crime scene, that’s when you can call the biohazard removal experts like Americon Restoration.

Do not clean the blood yourself because improper handling increases infection risk. Plus, bodily fluids seeping into the surfaces will not easily be cleaned with regular detergents or bleach.

Avoid All Contact with Visible Contaminants

Touching anything close to the trauma or crime-affected person or within the nearby space can risk the transfer of pathogens such as HIV, HBC, and other infections to you.

Plus, this can disrupt the crime scene and may destroy evidence that authorities need to make sense of the incident.

Document for Insurance Purposes from a Safe Distance

You can document the scene with timestamped photos, videos, and notes from a safe distance for insurance purposes, but with the permission of the authorities.

Many policies cover professional hazmat cleanup, but require documentation of the damage and odor issues.
