⚠️ WHEN IS A CLEAN NOT JUST A CLEAN?
We recently saw something that highlighted an important issue that many people understandably may not know about.
If a property simply needs cleaning after a bereavement, a conventional cleaning company may be absolutely suitable.
But when blood, bodily fluids, decomposition or other biological contamination is present, it's different.
This isn't just about making a carpet, bathroom or room look clean.
Contamination can soak through carpet into the underlay and flooring beneath. Porous materials may sometimes need to be removed rather than simply cleaned. The risks need to be assessed, appropriate PPE and specialist procedures used, and contaminated materials handled correctly.
That's why specialist biohazard cleaning exists.
At Aftermath Specialist Cleaning Ltd, our specialist teams are led by competent, fully trained and
qualified personnel who understand how to assess contamination and determine what needs cleaning, disinfecting or, where necessary, removing.
But we also understand that we're often walking into somebody's life at one of its most difficult moments.
No judgement. No embarrassment. Just compassion, dignity and professional help when it's needed most. 🧡
So if you're ever faced with:
🔸 Blood or bodily-fluid contamination
🔸 An unattended death or traumatic incident
🔸 Decomposition contamination
🔸 Needles or sharps
🔸 Severe hoarding or property contamination
🔸 Other potential biohazards
Don't just ask, “Who can clean this?”
Ask, “Does this need a specialist?”
If you're unsure, call us. We'd rather give you advice and tell you that a conventional cleaner is perfectly suitable than have someone unknowingly tackle a potential biohazard without the appropriate precautions.
