Has a crime, an accident or an unattended death left a mess in Midtown? Police and paramedics do not clean up afterward, so you need cleaners to remove blood, bodily fluids and contaminated materials. Call (877) 812-4220.
If anyone is in danger, call 911 first. For a suicide crisis, call or text 988.
A biohazard cleaner deals with what regular cleaners will not touch: blood, decomposition, human waste and infectious materials. Midtown homeowners, tenants, landlords and business owners can get discreet biohazard cleanup services by calling Midtown Biohazard Cleanup Help.
Every job follows the same order. Assess the area, contain it, remove contaminated and hazardous materials, disinfect, treat odor and dispose of the waste under the rules. Crews are available 24/7 in Midtown and throughout Bexar County.
Half the homes in San Antonio were built in 1985 or earlier, and the building materials set how deep fluids travel. The crew checks each home to see what is underneath. After an outbreak of illness or an exposure, the San Antonio Metropolitan Health District is a local contact for public health questions, while the cleanup team does the disinfection.
Why the strict steps? Because dried blood, tissue and decomposition fluids can still carry disease. Cleanup technicians in Midtown follow the OSHA bloodborne pathogen standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, and treat every stain as a hazard until it has been properly disinfected.
Hard surfaces get deep cleaning and a hospital-grade disinfectant from the EPA-registered list. Porous materials such as carpet, padding, mattresses and drywall that hold contamination are cut out and removed, because they cannot be made safe by wiping.
