Good to know
The name says crime scene. The work is much wider
Crime scene cleanup is what the trade calls hazardous cleanup after a death, injury or accident. The name stuck because police often arrive first, even when nothing criminal happened. Around Madison, most of our calls are natural deaths and accidents.
So if there’s blood, fluid or an odor anywhere at your home or business in Fitchburg, call us. We remove it, disinfect what’s left and treat the odor at its source, so the space is safe to live or work in again.
- Natural and unattended deaths
- Falls, injuries and medical emergencies
- Blood and fluids, removed and disinfected
- Death odor treated at the source
- Crime scenes, once police release them

Our services
Unattended death cleanup in Fitchburg
A natural death is still a hazardous cleanup when time has passed. In Fitchburg, we come in after the Dane County Medical Examiner releases the home and return the room to a safe, clean, odor-free space.
Fluids move down. They soak carpet and pad, slip through seams in vinyl and hardwood and settle into the subfloor. That’s why the stain you see is never the whole job.
How we handle it
We work in a set order because skipping a step is how odor comes back. First a walkthrough with moisture meters and a careful look under flooring and behind trim. Then containment, so the rest of the house stays clean. Then removal of carpet, pad, mattress, drywall and subfloor that absorbed fluids. The structure underneath is cleaned, disinfected and sealed. Last, we deodorize, test the surfaces and walk the room with you or send photos.
Once the Dane County Medical Examiner releases the home, call us and Kevin will explain the plan before anyone touches anything.
- Odor treated at the source
- Belongings set aside and cleaned when possible
- Licensed biohazard waste disposal
- Photos and paperwork for insurance
- Walkthrough with moisture meters
Crime scene & homicide cleanup
Crime scene & homicide cleanup in Fitchburg
After a crime in Fitchburg, police finish their work and leave. The blood, the broken glass and the fingerprint powder stay behind. That’s where we come in.
Blood and tissue are infectious waste under Wisconsin rules. They leave the property with us, packaged and manifested, never in a household trash can.
How we handle it
We start with the obvious areas and then widen the search: the walls and ceiling near the scene, the underside of furniture, the gaps between floorboards, door handles, light switches and anything people touched afterward. Blood travels on shoes, so hallways and stairs get checked too.
From Fish Hatchery Road to the edges of town, every crime scene call in Fitchburg gets the same careful, documented process.
- Licensed infectious waste disposal
- Photo record for insurance and victim compensation
- Damaged doors and drywall added to the rebuild
- Blood and tissue removal
- Evidence cut-outs and debris cleared
Suicide cleanup
Suicide cleanup in Fitchburg
Suicide cleanup in Fitchburg is done gently, privately and completely. You don’t have to be there, you don’t have to explain anything to the neighbors and you don’t have to call the insurer yourself.
Mattresses, bedding and upholstery usually can’t be saved. Tile, hardwood, concrete and many hard surfaces can, and we clean and disinfect them thoroughly.
How we handle it
Vehicles, garages and outdoor spaces need a different approach than a bedroom. Car interiors can sometimes be restored, and concrete can be cleaned and sealed. We explain what’s possible before we start.
In a town like Fitchburg, privacy matters. We keep our presence low-key and never discuss a job with anyone but you.
- Insurance claim filed for you
- Local grief resources if you want them
- Quiet, low-key arrival
- Blood and fluid removal from every surface
- Ceilings, fixtures and vents checked
Blood & biohazard cleanup
Blood & biohazard cleanup in Fitchburg
Blood can carry hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. In Fitchburg, we clean it with full protective gear, hospital-grade disinfectant and licensed waste disposal.
We work after hours for businesses, so a store, an office or a restaurant can open the next morning as usual.
How we handle it
Needles and sharps go into rigid sharps containers. Animal waste, feces and vomit get the same careful handling as blood, because they can carry disease too.
For landlords in Fitchburg, we document every biohazard cleanup, so you have a record for the deposit, the insurer and the next tenant.
- Same-day service when possible
- Blood traced into pad, grout and seams
- Sharps removed into rigid containers
- Hospital-grade disinfection
- Homes, cars, rentals and workplaces

Tips for Fitchburg families and property owners
Practical advice from the techs who answer Fitchburg calls.
Managers: call early
The sooner we’re in, the less odor reaches the neighbors.
Don't pull carpet yourself
Pulling carpet spreads contamination. Leave it to us.
Death odor removal
Death odor removal in Fitchburg
Families in Fitchburg often call us because the odor stayed after someone else cleaned. That usually means the source is still there, and we go find it.
When we’re done, the room should smell like nothing. If it doesn’t, we come back.
How we handle it
Odor removal is source removal first. We find every material that absorbed fluids, remove it, clean and disinfect the structure and seal it with an odor-blocking primer. Only then do we deodorize the air.
Landlords in Fitchburg call us when a unit can’t be shown because of the smell. We get it ready to rent again.
- Source found and removed
- Subfloor and framing sealed
- Thermal fogging and hydroxyl treatment
- Ducts and returns cleaned
- Filters replaced
Hoarding cleanout
Hoarding cleanout in Fitchburg
Many Fitchburg cleanouts happen when a family member is moving to care, a house is being sold or a landlord needs a unit back. We work to your deadline.
We keep a found-items box for papers, photos, cash, jewelry and anything else that might matter, and we hand it over at the end of each day.
How we handle it
We sort room by room, with a found-items box for anything that might matter. Trash and ruined items go out, and keepsakes, papers and valuables come back to you.
Many of our Fitchburg cleanouts are for families handling a parent’s home. We send photo updates if you live out of town.
- Room-by-room sorting
- Found-items box for keepsakes
- Biohazards, sharps and pests handled
- Trash and ruined items hauled away
- Deep cleaning and disinfection
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup in Fitchburg
If police used tear gas or pepper spray in a Fitchburg home, the residue keeps burning eyes and lungs for weeks. We clean it from walls, fabrics and ductwork.
We HEPA vacuum every surface first, then wash, then clean the ducts and change the filters. Fabrics are laundered or replaced.
How we handle it
Fingerprint powder comes in black, white, gray and magnetic types, and each one needs a different approach. Wiping smears it into the grain. We lift it with the right technique for each surface.
We clean fingerprint powder for homes and businesses in Fitchburg after break-ins, often before opening time.
- Fingerprint powder lifted without smearing
- Ductwork cleaned and filters replaced
- Fabrics laundered or replaced
- Electronics and glass cleaned carefully
- Rooms checked before you move back in
Rebuild after cleanup
Rebuild after cleanup in Fitchburg
Most cleanup companies leave a Fitchburg family with a gutted room. We finish the job: subfloor, flooring, drywall, paint and trim.
Flooring, drywall, trim, doors, paint and fixtures are all part of what we can rebuild.
How we handle it
For rentals and homes going on the market, we schedule the rebuild to your deadline so the property can be rented or listed again.
For Fitchburg landlords and sellers, we work to your schedule so the unit can be rented or listed again.
- Trim and doors replaced
- Finishes matched as closely as possible
- One itemized estimate for your insurer
- Photos at every stage

We come now in Fitchburg.

Funeral homes
Cleanup before or after the funeral in Fitchburg
When someone dies at home, the funeral and the cleanup often fall in the same week. We work with your family, and with the funeral home if you’d like, so the house is ready before relatives arrive for the visitation, or after the service if that’s easier.
Funeral directors can call us on a family’s behalf, any hour. Give us the visitation and service times and we’ll plan around them, so nobody has to choose between grieving and dealing with the house.
