PROFESSIONAL BIOHAZARD CLEANUP
Every situation is different. We evaluate the affected area and develop a cleanup and restoration plan appropriate for the property and circumstances.
Blood & Bodily Fluid Cleanup
Areas affected by blood or bodily fluids require careful cleaning and disinfection using appropriate procedures and protective equipment.
Trauma Scene Cleanup
When an accident or traumatic event affects a property, our team approaches the cleanup with professionalism, sensitivity, and respect for everyone involved.
Unattended Death Cleanup
These situations can be especially difficult for families and property owners. We handle the physical cleanup discreetly and carefully so you don’t have to face it alone.
Contaminated Material Removal
Porous or damaged materials that cannot be properly cleaned may need to be removed, contained, and handled using appropriate biohazard procedures.
Cleaning & Deodorization
Affected surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, while specialized deodorization methods may be used to address persistent odors.
Repairs & Reconstruction
When cleanup requires flooring, drywall, cabinetry, or other materials to be removed, Restore It Chicago can repair and rebuild the affected area.
HOW DOES BIOHAZARD CLEANUP WORK?
Our team works carefully and discreetly to contain the affected area, remove contamination, and restore the property.
Assess & Secure
We evaluate the affected area, identify materials requiring attention, and develop an appropriate cleanup plan.
Contain & Protect
The work area is isolated when appropriate, and technicians use specialized personal protective equipment during cleanup.
Clean & Disinfect
Biological materials and unsalvageable contaminated materials are removed, and affected surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
Restore & Rebuild
When building materials must be removed during cleanup, we can repair and reconstruct the affected space to help restore the property.
FROM CLEANUP TO COMPLETE RESTORATION
We don’t stop when the cleanup is finished.
Biohazard cleanup can sometimes require contaminated carpeting, flooring, drywall, insulation, cabinetry, or other building materials to be removed. Once the affected area has been cleaned and disinfected, those materials may still need to be replaced before the property feels whole again.
Restore It Chicago can continue the project through repairs and reconstruction. Having one restoration company manage the process from cleanup through rebuilding can make a difficult situation easier to navigate and help return the property to normal.
Discretion Matters
We understand that biohazard cleanup can involve deeply personal and sensitive circumstances. Our team approaches each property professionally and respectfully, with discretion throughout the cleanup and restoration process.
WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER A BIOHAZARD INCIDENT?
First, make sure the area is safe and follow any instructions provided by emergency personnel or law enforcement. Avoid touching blood, bodily fluids, contaminated materials, or attempting extensive cleanup yourself. Keep other people and pets away from the affected area when possible and contact a professional biohazard cleanup company to evaluate the property and determine the appropriate next steps.

Great company. It was so overwhelming when our basement flooded, and way too much for us to handle on our own. They really saved the day. Frank answered my panicked call, walked me through the process, and by the time we hung up the phone, I was already feeling reassured. A crew came out that same day. Eric was very knowledgeable, shared a lot of insights, proved himself a valuable resource in helping me to work with the insurance company, and he and his crew were very hard workers. Jeff kept me informed every step of the way. Their integrity, expertise and professionalism are the reasons I highly recommend this company.Michelle M.
