The Importance of Compassion in Unattended Death Cleanup Services

When tragedy strikes, it’s often unexpected and overwhelming. One of the most challenging situations property owners, families, and law enforcement face is dealing with an unattended death—a situation where an individual has passed away and remains undiscovered for days, weeks, or even longer. Beyond the emotional toll, this scenario presents serious health risks and requires professional biohazard cleanup to restore the area safely.

At T.A.C.T. Detroit, we specialize in unattended death cleanup, ensuring properties are not only cleaned but also disinfected and deodorized while treating the situation with the utmost care and discretion.

Why Professional Cleanup Is Necessary

Many people don’t realize that when a body decomposes, it releases biohazards such as bloodborne pathogens, bacteria, and strong odors that seep into floors, walls, and furniture. Without professional cleaning, these contaminants can pose long-term health risks and cause structural damage to the property.

Biohazard exposure is a significant risk, as blood, bodily fluids, and decomposition matter can transmit diseases such as Hepatitis B & C, HIV, and other infections. Strong odors and airborne contaminants from decomposition can be overwhelming and require industrial-grade deodorization. Decomposing remains can also attract insects and rodents, increasing health risks. Additionally, fluids can soak into floors, subflooring, and drywall, leading to permanent damage and costly repairs.

The T.A.C.T. Detroit Cleanup Process

Our team follows strict IICRC & OSHA guidelines to ensure thorough and safe biohazard remediation. We begin with an assessment and containment, evaluating the affected area, isolating the space to prevent cross-contamination, and ensuring safety for everyone involved. We then proceed with biohazard removal, eliminating all contaminated materials, including flooring, furniture, and other affected surfaces. The next step is deep cleaning and disinfection, using hospital-grade disinfectants and industrial-strength cleaning solutions to eliminate all biohazards. Odor neutralization follows, utilizing HEPA air filtration, ozone treatment, and fogging techniques to eliminate lingering odors.
