Unattended Death

Safe, discreet and professional biohazard remediation after unattended deaths and decomposition

The Challenges of Unattended Deaths

Unattended deaths present a unique set of challenges not only for detectives, medical examiners and coroners, but also for those responsible for cleaning and restoring the scene.

Once a body is removed, it leaves behind both visible and microscopic contamination. Blood, bodily fluids and tissue residues are not only distressing but can harbour dangerous pathogens. Cleaning these scenes requires far more than simply wiping surfaces – it involves specialist biohazard remediation.

Why Professional Cleanup is Essential

Unattended death and decomposition scenes often contain:

  • Blood, bodily fluids and tissue

  • Bone matter and decomposition residues

  • Contaminated furniture, clothing and household goods

  • Hypodermic needles, razor blades and other sharps

  • Hidden contamination in flooring, walls and porous materials

Even when a scene looks clean, biohazards remain in areas that cannot be seen or easily accessed. Without professional decontamination, serious health risks persist.
