Trauma & Crime Scene Cleanup
IICRC Trauma & Crime Scene Certified—Discreet, Compassionate, and Professional
When traumatic events occur, you need a certified professional who can handle biohazardous situations with safety, discretion, and respect. Available 24/7 for immediate response.
IICRC Trauma & Crime Scene Certified
Darren Miller holds IICRC Trauma & Crime Scene certification—one of the most difficult and sensitive certifications in the restoration industry. This specialized training ensures safe handling of biohazardous materials, proper decontamination protocols, and respectful treatment of traumatic situations.
Situations We Handle with Compassion & Expertise
These are difficult situations that no one expects to face. Our certified team handles each scene with professionalism, discretion, and respect for those affected.
Unattended Deaths
When a resident passes away alone and isn't discovered immediately, extensive biological contamination requires certified decontamination. We handle these situations with dignity and respect.
Crime Scenes
After police investigations conclude, property owners are responsible for cleanup. Blood, bodily fluids, and contaminated materials must be safely removed following health regulations.
Suicide Cleanup
Families dealing with tragedy shouldn't have to handle biohazard cleanup themselves. We provide compassionate, discreet service during an unimaginably difficult time.
Blood & Bodily Fluids
Medical emergencies, accidents, and injuries can leave hazardous contamination. Safe removal requires proper PPE, EPA-approved disinfectants, and certified training.
Hoarding Situations
Severe hoarding often involves biohazards—decomposing materials, animal waste, mold, and unsafe conditions. Certified cleanup protects health and restores safety.
Infectious Disease Cleanup
Contamination from infectious diseases (C. difficile, MRSA, COVID-19) requires specialized decontamination to eliminate pathogens and protect occupants.
Why IICRC Certification is Critical for Biohazard Cleanup
Biohazardous materials pose serious health risks: Blood and bodily fluids can transmit HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and other bloodborne pathogens. Improper cleanup creates life-threatening exposure for property owners, occupants, and future residents.
❌ Risks of Uncertified Cleanup
- • Exposure to dangerous pathogens (HIV, Hepatitis)
- • Incomplete decontamination leaves hidden hazards
- • Improper disposal violates health regulations
- • Psychological trauma from attempting self-cleanup
- • Legal liability if contamination remains
âś… Certified Professional Protection
- • Proper PPE prevents pathogen exposure
- • Complete decontamination eliminates all hazards
- • Legal disposal follows all health regulations
- • Families spared from traumatic cleanup
- • Documented clearance for insurance and legal purposes
Important: Many cleaning companies claim they can handle these situations, but without IICRC Trauma & Crime Scene certification, they lack the training, equipment, and protocols to do so safely.
Our IICRC-Certified Decontamination Process
1. Immediate Confidential Response
We respond 24/7 to your call. Discretion is paramount—unmarked vehicles, no signage, complete confidentiality. We work with families, property managers, police, and insurance companies.
2. Assessment & Safety Protocols
Complete scene assessment identifies all contaminated areas—not just visible surfaces. We establish containment zones, don proper PPE (Tyvek suits, respirators, gloves), and prepare equipment.
3. Biohazard Removal
IICRC Protocol: All contaminated materials—carpets, padding, drywall, furniture—are carefully removed and double-bagged in biohazard bags. Porous materials that cannot be decontaminated are removed and legally disposed of.
4. Decontamination & Disinfection
Non-porous surfaces are decontaminated using EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectants effective against bloodborne pathogens. Multiple applications ensure complete sanitization.
- EPA-approved disinfectants (effective against HIV, Hepatitis)
- Proper contact time for pathogen elimination
- Treatment of all surfaces—floors, walls, ceilings, fixtures
- HEPA air filtration during work
5. Odor Elimination
Decomposition and biological odors require specialized neutralization—thermal fogging, hydroxyl treatment, and sealing techniques eliminate odors at the molecular level.
6. Legal Disposal
All biohazardous waste is transported and disposed of following WorkSafeBC, health authority, and provincial regulations. We provide documentation of legal disposal.
7. Final Clearance & Documentation
Complete documentation—photos, disposal certificates, decontamination protocols—is provided for insurance, legal, and property management purposes. Final clearance confirms safe occupancy.
Discretion, Respect, and Compassion
We understand these are some of the most difficult situations families and property managers face. Our approach prioritizes:
- Complete Confidentiality: Your privacy is paramount. We never discuss cases or details.
- Unmarked Service: No company logos, no signage, no indication of the service being performed.
- Respectful Communication: Clear, compassionate guidance through each step of the process.
- Coordination: We work with police, coroners, insurance adjusters, and property management as needed.
- 24/7 Availability: Immediate response whenever you need us.
