Health hazards posed by bacteria, viruses, and infectious diseases can be serious. Oftentimes, these pathogens are invisible, making cleanup an even more difficult task for the inexperienced. Aftermath specializes in delivering the highest standards of biohazard remediation and communicable disease disinfection. We are dedicated to providing emergency rapid response 24/7/365 so you can focus on what’s important, your family or business.
Infectious Disease & Superbug Decontamination
Aftermath provides professional biohazard cleanup and communicable disease & superbug disinfection services to eliminate hazardous and often invisible pathogens like bacteria, viruses & infectious diseases.
How Do We Clean?
Every infectious disease case is a biohazard situation, and every biohazard situation can include infectious disease. This is why we adhere to OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen regulations and practice universal precautions to protect our employees and our customers. Our science-based process ensures that we contain the affected areas to prevent cross-contamination, remove all traces of biological materials, disinfect and deodorize, and test to confirm that the affected areas are free of pathogens. We are diligent and thorough because we understand that the health and safety of you and your family are on the line.
To many, biohazard remediation (and its commonly used alternative, crime scene cleanup) sounds like standard cleaning. In reality, the two services couldn’t be more different. Biohazard remediation refers to the removal, cleaning, and disinfection of blood, bodily fluids, and other potentially harmful pathogens in affected areas after a death, accident, or communicable disease outbreak. Because of the high exposure risk to bloodborne pathogens, biohazard remediation is a specialty service that requires proper training, equipment, certification, and licensing.
Aftermath has designed a 3-step remediation process and developed a line of cleaning agents to protect the health and safety of our customers and their property. For more than 20 years, we have adhered to the highest standards in biohazard remediation to ensure that our customers and employees are fully protected. We stand by our work with a 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee.
The Aftermath Remediation Process
Assess
We complete an initial walk-through and OSHA-mandated employee-safety hazard assessment of the scene.
Control and Setup
We use OSHA’s recommended cross-contamination protocol to control the affected area by securing and separating it from other parts of the structure.
Remove
We remove all visible traces of blood and biological materials from the affected area. This is the most dangerous step of the remediation process.
Clean, Disinfect, and Deodorize
After removal, we clean, disinfect, and deodorize affected surfaces using EPA-rated disinfectants.
Verify
Upon completion, we use adenosine triphosphate (ATP) testing technology to guarantee hospital-level standards of disinfection.
