From the first call to the final walk‑through, Code Three Clean follows a clear, compassionate process to restore safety and peace of mind.
When you reach out, a team member gathers key details about what happened, who is affected, and what areas are involved so we can determine the right response. For emergencies, a first responder–staffed crew is dispatched 24/7; for non‑urgent cases, we schedule a visit at a time that works best for you.
Once on site, the team conducts a discreet walkthrough to identify visible and hidden hazards, structural impacts, and safety risks. We then explain what needs to be done, answer questions, and provide a clear, written estimate—often with options to work directly with your insurance.
Before cleaning begins, technicians set up safety zones, PPE, and containment barriers to keep unaffected areas clean and prevent cross‑contamination. All work follows strict OSHA, EPA, and CDC‑aligned protocols, just as first responders would expect on an active scene.
The team removes biohazards, debris, and contaminated materials, then cleans, disinfects, and deodorizes all affected surfaces. Whether the scene involves trauma, hoarding, infectious disease, or odors, we use professional‑grade equipment to restore a safe environment.
After cleanup, we walk the space with you to review the work, address any concerns, and explain what was done and why. When applicable, we help document the loss for insurance and make sure you know what next steps and resources are available.
At Code Three Clean, biohazard cleanup is more than a job; it’s a responsibility. Our team of active and retired first responders brings unmatched experience, compassion, and attention to detail to every situation. We guide families and businesses through one of life’s hardest moments with expertise, care, and respect.
We know biohazard situations are stressful, overwhelming, and often confusing. These answers address the questions families and businesses most frequently ask, so you can understand the process and feel supported every step of the way.
Tear gas residue often spreads to walls, floors, HVAC returns, and fabrics like curtains, upholstery, and bedding. It can also cling to porous items and linger in corners where airflow slows. A technician assessment determines the full scope before decontamination begins.
Response can be very fast because Code Three Trauma Clean offers 24/7 emergency availability for urgent hazardous cleanup needs. Exact timing depends on the size of the affected area and whether multiple rooms or HVAC are involved. After the assessment, we will give you a realistic timeline for your specific situation.
Pricing depends on the scope of contamination, the number of materials involved, and whether porous items require removal or treatment. After we assess the scene, we can provide a clearer estimate based on what needs to be decontaminated. If insurance coordination is relevant, we can help with documentation for your claim.
DIY cleaning is usually a mistake because quick wiping or dry sweeping can spread residue and worsen cross-contamination. Waiting without a controlled plan can also prolong exposure for anyone returning to the space. Professional containment and decontamination help reduce the risk of recontamination.
Yes, Code Three Trauma Clean handles these situations with discretion and respect for affected individuals and properties. We minimize disruption to unaffected areas and keep communication clear and professional. You can expect a calm, discreet approach from arrival through final walkthrough.
Keep people out of the affected area and avoid sweeping, dry mopping, or aggressive wiping that can spread residue. If you can do so safely, isolate the space and note which rooms or items feel most impacted. Share any safety concerns with our technician during the assessment so we can plan the safest route forward.
