What homicide cleanup covers:
Tile, sealed wood, glass and metal are cleaned and disinfected first because they are the easiest to restore.
Affected rooms are sealed, and the crew puts on full protective equipment so nothing spreads to other areas.
Hard surfaces get a thorough disinfection, and the room is treated for odor so it no longer carries traces of what happened.
Odor is removed at the source, the air is filtered and each area is checked before the owner gets the space back.
Expect homicide cleanup in Carrizo Springs, TX to cost roughly $2,000 to $10,000, with the final price set after an on-site assessment.
