Frequently, yes. Homeowners and renters insurance commonly covers biohazard cleanup after a sudden event such as a death, a crime or a sewage backup, minus your deductible.
In rental units and common areas, the owner or property manager usually arranges and pays for cleanup.
After a death, cleanup costs can often be paid by the estate. A family member or the estate executor normally manages this task.
Accidental events are commonly covered when sudden. Insurance commonly excludes neglect over time and hoarding. Contact your insurer ahead of any cleanup.

Call any hour. Ask a specialist to clarify what happens next in the cleanup process.
Biohazards are genuine health hazards that can cause serious illness, while visible contamination is seldom the full extent of the problem.
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
During decomposition, released bacteria, liquids and gases soak through floors and spread to other areas by way of vents.
Although bleach and sprays may clean on top, absorbed fluids remain in drywall, subfloor, carpet and its pad. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
Emergency service calls are answered day and night, and crews arrive in unmarked vehicles so neighbors and building staff do not know what happened.
Hoarding and neglect are met without judgment, with respect for you and your loved ones through a difficult time. Documents, keepsakes and photographs are saved for you.
The process, every step of cleanup and all price factors are explained to you before anything gets removed. No pressure and no surprises.
Photos of the work, notes on its scope and disposal records are prepared for your landlord, insurance company or the state victim program.
The biohazard cleanup process follows the same safe order for every job, from the first call to the final inspection.
Share what happened. You and the technicians agree on the scope after they inspect the scene and take photos.
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.
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.
Hospital-grade disinfectant registered by the EPA is applied after all surfaces are cleaned.
Air scrubbers, ozone or hydroxyl address odor where it begins, while vents receive inspection.
A permitted medical waste treatment facility receives the sealed material along with its tracking documents.
Where needed, ATP testing helps check that the space has returned to a livable condition. You also get photographs and documentation for your claim.
Removed flooring or drywall can be rebuilt by your contractor or your insurer's vendor.
For privacy, crews come in unmarked vehicles and limit noise as much as the building allows. A property manager may need to arrange access to shared areas.
Cleanup of a unit or shared space is often arranged by the owner. Your insurer can tell you which costs your policy may cover.
You can use published national ranges as a starting guide. An assessment of the rooms, impacted materials and disposal requirements allows the cleanup company to set the price.
Cleanup can begin after police, the medical examiner or another authority releases the property and a crew agrees a start time with you.
