24 HOUR SERVICE - CALL US AT 1-800-222-6815
We specialize in crime scene cleanup and tragedy cleanup. We emphasize ‘tragedy’ clean-up, since little of our work involves active crime scenes. Homicides and Self-Inflicted death (suicide) are not the only type of tragedy cleaning we perform. Just because blood may not be readily visible, body fluids may potentially have a high enough concentration of pathogens to be classified as “Other Potentially Infectious Materials” (OPIM) according to OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (reference 29CFR1910.1030).
Our service is equipped and ready to respond 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Once summoned to a scene, whether commercial, industrial, residential or auto, our technicians will evaluate the extent of the damage and prepare a written proposal. When our proposal is accepted, we immediately begin the restoration procedures. We clean, disinfect and deodorize all affected areas along with proper disposal. All biohazardous waste is disposed of through a federally licensed waste company.
In addition, we offer extensive disaster cleaning services including fire damage restoration where we use the most up to date document drying processes when those irreplacable papers are threatened by water damage.
You can reach us at 1-800 222-6815 if you are having any water damage, smoke, sewage damage cleanup or mold remediation problems!

Crime Scene Cleanup: What to Do When Violence Invades your Precious Home
Who said that there is absolute safety in one's own home? How about considering these observations? Around the country, 10 women are raped every hour and four women get battered by someone they love or know every minute. Six of ten American homes get broken into every minute while around four to five families experience some kind of domestic violence every hour. The figure actually is higher in other countries, especially in the third world. What this means is that the previous notion that one can ensure his or her safety in his or her own home is not exactly true. Whatever is thought about today's crimes, one thing is for sure, crime and violence has indeed found its way into American homes. As such, American families should also begin learning crime and violence prevention and, if at all possible, crime scene cleanup activities.
Crime scene cleanup is actually a concept that describes a human activity that focuses on the cleaning and or management of a particular area after a traumatic or even violent incident. The actual work begins when the police authorities have finally concluded their investigation or they have already gathered all the crucial evidence they could find. It is actually intended for the professionals but you can also try these very simple steps in your home. That is, if ever it does come to that.
Violence in the home can leave a trail of destruction. Pieces of furniture may be broken, fixtures may be in disarray, human tissues may lie scattered everywhere. These crime scene situations are easy to fix. But what becomes a challenge is the crime scene cleanup of human blood splatter. So the very first thing you need to have is a basic understanding of the composition of human blood. Human blood is composed of several cells that contain various molecules. It contains protein, iron, electrolytes, sugar, and tissue cells that bind the different structures together. With this knowledge, it is evident that in order for you to get through your very first (and hopefully, your last) crime scene cleanup you should have a special cleaning solution that will dissolve the many components of human blood and destroy all the chemical bonds that link each component. This way, you break the component chains, you dissolve the blood, and you succeed in your crime scene cleanup job.
The second step now is to look for a solution that will be able to do the job. A medical enzyme detergent can be used in this simple crime scene cleanup activity. The solution will effectively dissolve all the protein, iron, other electrolytes, and other substances in human blood thus, eliminating unwanted blood stains. This solution is available in major chemical supply stores and in some medical supply shops. The one drawback is its cost. If the medical enzyme detergent is not for you, try ammonia. Mix about two tablespoons of ammonia with one cup of cold water. Put your home-made ammonia cleaning solution in a spray bottle.
The third step is the actual cleaning. One thing to remember is that you should never scrub the blood stain because you are just distributing the blood components even more. It is best that you try to blot the stain with a clean piece of cloth wet with cold water. Crime scene cleanup personnel will tell you that working towards the center of the stain is the way to go.
Once you have dampened the stain, spray it with the ammonia solution and then blot it again but with a dry piece of clean cloth this time. Repeat the process and make sure to use a dry piece of cloth every time you blot dry the stain. Do this until there is no more stain that is visible on the cloth you are using to blot dry the area. Then, blot the area again with clean water and repeat the process until such time that the ammonia solution has been removed. You know this by the absence of the noticeable ammonia smell in your blotting cloth.
