Biohazard Cleanup in Orlando: What It Is and What It Covers

Biohazard cleanup is the safe removal, disinfection and disposal of blood, bodily fluids, tissue and other infectious or hazardous materials after a death, a crime, an accident, a hoarding situation or a sewage backup.

Bio cleanup, trauma cleanup, bio hazard cleaning and biohazard remediation describe the same work. Professional biohazard cleanup goes beyond ordinary deep cleaning. Using personal protective equipment, technicians trace every place contamination reached, remove porous items beyond disinfection, then restore affected areas to a livable condition.

A biohazard is anything biological that can make people sick. The usual examples in homes or businesses are:

  • Fresh or dried blood and bodily fluids
  • Decomposition after an unattended death
  • Human and animal waste along with urine and vomit
  • Category 3 black water, including raw sewage
  • Needles, sharps and medical waste
  • Fentanyl, meth and residue from drug labs

First steps

What to Do First After a Death, Crime or Biohazard Spill in Orange County

Few people encounter this more than once. Taking these initial actions safeguards your health, insurance claim and final cleanup cost.

Call (888) 351-0904
  1. Contact 911 for any injury or death. The medical examiner, law enforcement and first responders need to clear the scene before any cleanup starts.
  2. Do not enter the affected area. Keep pets and children away after closing the door. Never cross an area containing blood or body fluids.
  3. Avoid cleaning the area on your own. Household cleaners spread contamination and set stains into floors and walls.
  4. Call your insurance company. Report the loss, ask about biohazard cleanup coverage and write down the claim number.
  5. Call for biohazard cleanup. Describe what happened and which rooms are affected so the cleanup team can plan.
Step by step

How Biohazard Clean Up Works in Greater Orlando, Step by Step

The biohazard cleanup process follows the same safe order for every job, from the first call to the final inspection.

  1. Call and On-Site Biohazard Assessment

    Explain the situation. Technicians inspect the scene, photograph it and agree the scope with you.

  2. Containment of the Affected Area

    To prevent contamination from moving elsewhere, the affected area is closed off using plastic sheeting.

  3. Removal of Contaminated Materials

    After infectious materials soak into carpet, pad, drywall or similar porous items, the affected pieces are removed and sealed for medical waste, so no affected material is left behind.

  4. Biohazard Cleaning and Disinfection

    Hospital-grade disinfectant registered by the EPA is applied after all surfaces are cleaned.

  5. Odor Removal and Air Quality

    Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.

  6. Biohazard Waste Disposal

    A permitted medical waste treatment facility receives the sealed material along with its tracking documents.

  7. Final Inspection and ATP Testing

    The space is inspected and, where appropriate, ATP tested to confirm a livable condition, and documentation and photos are prepared for your claim.

  8. Repairs and Back to Normal

    Rebuilding areas where drywall or floors were taken out can be done by your contractor or the insurer's vendor.

Health and safety

Serious Health Risks of Biohazards in Greater Orlando Homes and Businesses

Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.

Sewage, Bacteria and Mold

Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.

Decomposition and Airborne Contamination

Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.

Why Regular Household Cleaners Are Not Enough

Bleach and sprays treat surfaces but do not remove fluids absorbed by carpet pad, subfloor or drywall. What is left behind brings odor and bacteria back, which is why decontamination services remove it.

Bloodborne Pathogens

HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can live in blood. The CDC says hepatitis B can survive on surfaces for at least seven days.

Insurance and who pays

When Does Insurance Cover Biohazard Cleanup in Florida?

Often, it does. Biohazard cleanup following a sudden incident, including a death, sewage backup or crime, is commonly covered by renters and homeowners policies, less your deductible.

The Deceased Person's Estate and Next of Kin

After a death, cleanup costs can often be paid by the estate. This is generally managed by the executor or a family member.

Orange County Landlords and Rental Property Owners

Owners or property managers usually pay for and organize cleanup inside rental units and shared areas.

Homeowners and Renters Insurance for Biohazard Cleanup

Accidental events are commonly covered when sudden. Hoarding and long-term neglect usually are not. Check with the insurer prior to starting work.

Florida Crime Victim Compensation

Victims of violent crime can ask the Florida Attorney General's Bureau of Victim Compensation about cleanup, since its rules count crime scene cleanup costs as a compensable loss. Insurance is usually checked first.

Is Do-It-Yourself Biohazard Spill Cleanup Safe in Florida?

A small amount of fresh blood on a hard surface that is non-porous can be cleaned safely. Wear disposable gloves, follow the complete contact time for an EPA-registered disinfectant, and discard used gloves and cloths in a sealed bag.

For anything larger, the answer is no. Fluids that reached carpet, wood, drywall or a mattress need removal, not wiping, and the waste is regulated. Using professional biohazard cleaners spares family members from cleaning where someone close to them died.

Rules in plain English

Florida and Orange County Biohazard Removal Regulations

OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard

Federal rule 29 CFR 1910.1030 covers protective equipment, training and handling whenever workers can be exposed to blood.

EPA-registered disinfectants

Use disinfectants with an EPA registration number for biohazards and maintain a wet surface for the contact time stated on the label.

Florida Medical Waste Rules

Florida calls it biomedical waste, and the term covers absorbent materials saturated with blood or body fluids. The Florida Department of Health's rules control packing, transport and treatment, so it cannot go in household trash.

Orange County Medical Examiner and Police Release

Florida uses district medical examiners, with the Medical Examiners Commission under the Florida Department of Law Enforcement overseeing them. Cleanup starts after police or the medical examiner or coroner release the scene.

Questions

Orlando Frequently Asked Questions on Biohazard Cleanup

What is considered a biohazard?

Blood, tissue, bodily fluids, raw sewage, used needles, and human or animal waste are examples of biological matter that can cause disease.

Who is responsible for cleaning death scenes and bodies in Orange County?

A funeral home or the medical examiner or coroner takes the body away. Cleaning the scene afterward is the property owner's or family's job, and most hire a biohazard cleanup company.

How long does it take to get sick from raw sewage?

Symptoms from sewage germs often start within one to three days, and some infections take longer. Avoid any contact with the area and keep children and pets away.

Is biohazard cleanup discreet?

Discreet biohazard cleanup is possible. Crews use unmarked vehicles, limit noise and protect details from others living nearby or working in the building.

Can homeowners insurance cover biohazard cleanup in Florida?

Many homeowners and renters policies cover biohazard cleanup after a sudden event, minus the deductible. Slow neglect and hoarding are generally excluded from coverage.

How long can disease remain in dry blood?

Some remain viable for quite a while. According to the CDC, surfaces can support hepatitis B for at least seven days, so you should treat dried blood as infectious.

What is the biohazard cleanup cost in Orlando?

Published pricing guides put most residential cleanup work between $1,800 and $8,000. Small blood jobs may cost under $1,000, while large hoarding or decomposition projects can rise above $20,000.

How long does biohazard cleanup take?

On-site work lasts one to three days for most cleanups. Several days to two weeks may be needed for decomposition, major scenes or hoarding cleanouts.
