Every unattended death is unique, and our approach reflects that.

Call us now. We clean, disinfect, and sanitize with precision while providing guidance and compassion to families and property owners during an emotional time.
From the first call to the final walk‑through, Code Three Clean follows a clear, compassionate process to restore safety and peace of mind.
When you reach out, a team member gathers key details about what happened, who is affected, and what areas are involved so we can determine the right response. For emergencies, a first responder–staffed crew is dispatched 24/7; for non‑urgent cases, we schedule a visit at a time that works best for you.
Once on site, the team conducts a discreet walkthrough to identify visible and hidden hazards, structural impacts, and safety risks. We then explain what needs to be done, answer questions, and provide a clear, written estimate—often with options to work directly with your insurance.
Before cleaning begins, technicians set up safety zones, PPE, and containment barriers to keep unaffected areas clean and prevent cross‑contamination. All work follows strict OSHA, EPA, and CDC‑aligned protocols, just as first responders would expect on an active scene.
The team removes biohazards, debris, and contaminated materials, then cleans, disinfects, and deodorizes all affected surfaces. Whether the scene involves trauma, hoarding, infectious disease, or odors, we use professional‑grade equipment to restore a safe environment.
After cleanup, we walk the space with you to review the work, address any concerns, and explain what was done and why. When applicable, we help document the loss for insurance and make sure you know what next steps and resources are available.
An unattended death is more than a hazard. It is a deeply personal and emotional situation that requires skill, precision, and empathy. We restore safety, handle biohazards properly, and provide guidance and support to families and property owners, ensuring the space and the people in it are treated with the care they deserve.
We know biohazard situations are stressful, overwhelming, and often confusing. These answers address the questions families and businesses most frequently ask, so you can understand the process and feel supported every step of the way.
