Rebuild after cleanup · MadTown Biohazard
We rebuild the room after the cleanup
Most cleanup companies leave you with a gutted room and a list of contractors to call. We finish the job. If flooring, subfloor, drywall or trim had to come out, we put it back under the same plan and the same claim. We also handle unattended death, suicide, crime scene and homicide, blood and biohazard, death odor removal, hoarding cleanouts and tear gas and fingerprint powder cleanup, and the rebuild afterward.

Quick answerRebuild after cleanup is the repair of flooring, subfloor, drywall, trim, doors and paint removed during biohazard, death or crime scene cleanup. MadTown Biohazard does it across Madison and south central Wisconsin as part of the same written scope, so families deal with one company and insurers see one estimate.
What we do
How rebuild after cleanup works around Madison
Serious cleanups often mean removing materials: carpet and pad, a section of subfloor, drywall, baseboards, a door. Hiring a separate contractor afterward means another estimate, another schedule and explaining to someone new what happened in the room.
We plan the rebuild into the scope from the start. Once the structure is clean, disinfected and sealed, we replace what came out and match finishes as closely as we can, so the room fits the rest of the house.
Included
- Structure sealed before new materials
- Subfloor and flooring replaced
- Drywall hung, finished and painted
- Trim and doors replaced
- Finishes matched as closely as possible
- One scope, one claim
Why one company
Why it's better as one job
Insurers prefer a single, clear estimate. Families prefer not to explain the situation to more contractors. And sealing and rebuilding go together: if the structure isn’t properly cleaned and sealed, new flooring can trap odor.
Keeping it one job means one schedule, one point of contact and one person accountable for the result.
Step by step
Rebuild after cleanup from the first call to the last walkthrough
You approve the scope and price before any work starts.
Clean
Cleanup and decontamination first.
Seal
Structure sealed so odor can’t return.
Measure
We measure and match finishes.
Rebuild
Flooring, drywall, trim and paint.
Walkthrough
We walk the finished room with you.
Matching
Making it fit the rest of the house
Older Madison homes have plank subfloors, plaster walls and trim profiles you can’t find at a big-box store. We match as closely as we can, and we’ll tell you up front if an exact match isn’t possible.
If you’d rather pick new finishes, like a different carpet, we can do that too.
Your contractor
If you'd rather use your own contractor
That’s fine. We’ll leave the structure clean, sealed and ready, and give your contractor our notes on what was removed and why.
You’ll still get the documentation for your insurer.
How a job like this goes
A bedroom after an unattended death
What we walk into
After an unattended death, a bedroom needed carpet, pad, a subfloor section, the baseboard and part of a wall removed. The family planned to sell the house.
What we did
- Cleanup. Removal, decontamination and sealing done in two days.
- Plan. Subfloor, new carpet in a color the family picked, drywall patch and paint, all in the original scope.
- Rebuild. Done over the following week.
- Finish. Walkthrough with the family’s realtor.
The result. The house was listed two weeks later, and the family dealt with one company the whole time.
