Only about 13% of homes in Clermont were built before 1980, so most cleanups involve newer drywall and flooring, though fluids can still soak through to the subfloor.

Professional biohazard cleanup, remediation and decontamination services follow the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030). Technicians wear personal protective equipment (PPE), including respirators, gloves and disposable suits, and treat all blood and bodily fluids as potentially infectious materials that can carry hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV.
Real decontamination reaches what the eye cannot see. Fluids travel under flooring and into baseboards, so crews check beneath and behind surfaces, remove affected materials and disinfect the exposed area before odor treatment begins.
