What Families and Owners Ask About Crime Scene Cleanup in Elberton
Can a landlord or property manager hire a cleanup company?
Yes. Owners and managers often book crime scene cleanup to make a unit safe for the next tenant. Lease terms and local law decide who pays, and an attorney or tenant rights group can explain the details.
How do they clean up crime scenes in a home?
The crew starts by finding every spot fluids reached, including under flooring and behind trim. Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed. Hard surfaces are disinfected, and the air and odor are treated last.
What should I tell my insurance company?
State the facts plainly: what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and what paperwork it needs. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.

The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, protects workers who handle blood and body fluids. Crews also use EPA-registered disinfectants and dispose of contaminated waste as regulated medical waste.
Do I need to be at the property?
