Licensed & certified
Summary
Discovering that someone has passed away after an extended period can be an extremely difficult experience for families, property owners, and those responsible for the property. In addition to the emotional impact, an unattended death may leave behind blood, bodily fluids, and other biological contamination that requires professional remediation.
All Island Bio-Recovery provides professional unattended death cleanup services for homes, apartments, rental properties, vehicles, and commercial spaces throughout Long Island and NYC.
Our team understands that these situations require more than ordinary cleaning. We approach each cleanup with discretion, compassion, and respect while assessing the affected areas and determining the appropriate remediation approach.
You should not have to handle the cleanup yourself. Our goal is to take care of the physical remediation so families and property owners can focus on what comes next.
Please do not attempt this yourself, and please do not call a general cleaning service. Bloodborne pathogens survive on surfaces long after a scene looks clean, and porous material (subfloor, drywall, upholstery, insulation) holds contamination that surface cleaning cannot reach. Our technicians hold OSHA HAZWOPER and Bloodborne Pathogens certification, and we are licensed by the EPA and NYSDEC to transport what comes out of the property.
What the work covers
When Is Professional Unattended Death Cleanup Necessary?
Death Discovered After an Extended Period
When a person has been deceased for an extended period before being discovered, biological contamination may affect flooring, furniture, walls, and other materials. Professional remediation can help identify affected areas and determine what needs to be cleaned or removed.
Unattended Death in a Home
An unattended death in a residence can leave biological contamination in bedrooms, living areas, bathrooms, and other parts of the home. All Island Bio-Recovery can assess the affected areas and provide professional cleanup and remediation.
Unattended Death in an Apartment or Rental Property
When an unattended death occurs in an apartment or rental property, landlords and property managers may need professional assistance addressing the affected space. Our team can work with property owners and managers to assess contamination and determine the appropriate remediation.
Unattended Death in a Vehicle
A death discovered after an extended period inside a vehicle can result in biological contamination affecting upholstery, carpeting, seats, and other interior surfaces. Professional remediation can help determine which materials require cleaning or removal.
Unattended Death in a Hotel or Short-Term Rental
Hotels, vacation rentals, and other temporary accommodations may require specialized remediation following an unattended death. All Island Bio-Recovery can assess the affected space and help property owners or managers address the contamination professionally and discreetly.
