Crime Scene Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Wheat Ridge, CO
Do I need to be at the property?
Usually not. Many owners set up access by phone, with a key holder or property manager. Tell the team who has the keys and whether the building must stay open around the work.
What does crime scene cleaning include?
It includes blood cleanup, removal of soaked porous materials, disinfection, handling of broken glass and debris, residue removal and odor control. Crews also sort personal property and document the work for insurers.
How do they clean up crime scenes in a home?
The crew starts by finding every spot fluids reached, including under flooring and behind trim. Soaked carpet, padding and drywall are removed. Hard surfaces are disinfected, and the air and odor are treated last.
Who cleans up crime scenes?
Crime scene cleaners do, also called forensic cleaners or biohazard remediation crews. Police and first responders do not clean. After law enforcement releases the scene, you, as the property owner, family member or estate, hire a crime scene cleanup company.
Is dried blood still dangerous?
Yes. Dried blood can still carry bloodborne pathogens, and scraping or wiping it can release particles. It should be handled in protective gear and disinfected, which is why crews treat old stains as seriously as fresh ones.
What should I tell my insurance company?
State the facts plainly: what happened, when, and that the scene has been released. Ask what the policy covers and what paperwork it needs. Take photos if you can and keep every receipt.
