Work begins once law enforcement or the investigator releases the scene. After that, crews move through containment, removal, disinfection and odor treatment in Skyline, O'Farrell and the wider San Diego County area.
Renters live in about 53% of homes in San Diego, so landlords and property managers often need to get cleanup done and sort out who pays with tenants and insurers. San Diego County has a Very High river flood risk rating from FEMA. Wherever floodwater or a sewer backup reaches a home, the water is treated as Category 3 and needs full cleanup.
Decontamination starts with protecting people. Crews suit up in PPE, set up barriers so contaminants cannot drift into clean rooms, and work to OSHA bloodborne pathogen protocols (29 CFR 1910.1030) from the first step to the last.
Products matter because a mild cleaner will not kill bloodborne germs. Biohazard cleaners use EPA-registered, hospital-grade disinfectants, follow the label for contact time and pair them with air treatment for lingering odor.
