Decomposition cleanup is a lot to handle. As mentioned before, when a body is left unattended for extended periods the body basically melts and dissolves. It will be absorbed by that which is under is as well as around it. Most times the coroner will not be able to identify the body.
Unfortunately, when a decomposition takes place the smell can be overpowering. Even a good scrub down will not necessarily handle the odor. It may temporarily mask it, but unless all traces of bio, body fluids, blood etc. are removed, the smell will remain.
Decomposition cleanup jobs are usually very involved and are extremely time consuming, when done properly.
Any cleanup job that involves body fluids and/or blood should not be attempted by a janitor, maid, carpet cleaner or anyone else who is not educated in blood borne pathogens and specifically trained to cleanup and decontaminate such tragedies.
Cendecon technicians are trained, experienced and certified to efficiently decontaminate human decompositions as well as provide professional odor removal treatment to permanently get rid of the smell.
Decomposition cleanups entail removing all traces of bio, sometimes removing walls, flooring and sub flooring, bio-washing and disinfecting the entire area with an EPA approved virucidal solution, all contaminated rubbish must be legally disposed of and can not be put in regular trash bins. Once every single trace of human fluids has been removed the odor treatment can begin.
Something to know about doing a decomposition cleanup – there is more than meets the eye. Body fluids can and will seep into any porous surface. If a body decomposes on the 2nd floor of a building, chances are you will need to locate, remove and treat areas on the 1st floor, depending on how long the body was left.
Another thing to consider with a decomp cleanup - the longer the body went undiscovered the worse the damage and smell. It’s pretty much a guarantee that all carpet, furniture, clothing and other belongings will retain the death odor until properly treated - even if these items were on the opposite end of the house.
