Good to know
Most of our jobs have nothing to do with a crime
People hesitate to call because of our name. In this industry, crime scene cleanup is the catch-all name for any job with blood, bodily fluids or a death, and most of what we do around Madison is a natural death, a fall or a medical emergency.
So if there’s blood, fluid or an odor anywhere at your home or business in Monroe, 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
Crime scene & homicide cleanup in Monroe
After a crime in Monroe, police finish their work and leave. The blood, the broken glass and the fingerprint powder stay behind. That’s where we come in.
We check hallways, stairwells, door frames and neighboring units. In shared buildings, one scene can easily touch three spaces.
How we handle it
Investigators sometimes cut out carpet or drywall, spray chemicals or leave print powder everywhere. We clean all of it and add any damaged doors, windows or drywall to the rebuild so you aren’t left with holes.
In older homes, rentals and farms, contamination often reaches the next room or the next unit. We check shared spaces in Monroe every time.
- 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
Unattended death cleanup
Unattended death cleanup in Monroe
Unattended death cleanup in Monroe starts with one honest walkthrough. We show you what was affected, what can be saved and what it will take, before a single thing is moved.
We set aside photos, papers, jewelry and anything else that might matter, and we ask before any personal item is thrown away.
How we handle it
Every death cleanup gets a written scope before we start. It lists what comes out, what gets cleaned and what it costs. You approve it, and if we find fluids reached somewhere new, like the ceiling below or the next room, we stop and call you before we do anything about it.
In Monroe, we see this most in older homes, rentals and farms. Joe knows how these homes are built, which matters once fluids have reached the floor below.
- Licensed biohazard waste disposal
- Photos and paperwork for insurance
- Walkthrough with moisture meters
- Containment to protect the rest of the house
- Removal of carpet, pad and drywall that can't be saved
Blood & biohazard cleanup
Blood & biohazard cleanup in Monroe
Blood can carry hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. In Monroe, we clean it with full protective gear, hospital-grade disinfectant and licensed waste disposal.
OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen rules aren’t optional for us. Protective gear, safe handling and proper disposal are part of every job.
How we handle it
Blood and bodily fluids are handled as regulated waste under OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen rule and Wisconsin infectious waste rules. That means protective gear, safe handling, sealed packaging and a licensed disposal facility.
In Monroe, blood and biohazard calls come from homes, cars and workplaces. Businesses near the courthouse square often need us after hours.
- 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
Suicide cleanup
Suicide cleanup in Monroe
We get calls about suicide cleanup in Monroe from parents, spouses, landlords and friends. Every one gets the same quiet, careful work and the same respect.
Many insurance policies cover suicide cleanup. We handle the claim directly so you never have to describe what happened to an adjuster.
How we handle it
We keep everything private. No signs, no talk with neighbors and no details shared with anyone but the person who hired us.
If the Green County Coroner is still involved, we can help you understand the timing so you don’t have to chase phone calls.
- Quiet, low-key arrival
- Blood and fluid removal from every surface
- Ceilings, fixtures and vents checked
- Personal items set aside for the family
- Cars and garages included

From our techs
Tips for Monroe families and property owners
Practical advice from the techs who answer Monroe calls.
Landlords: call early
The sooner we’re in, the less odor reaches other units.
Hoarding cleanout
Hoarding cleanout in Monroe
Many Monroe 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.
Sharps, animal waste, spoiled food and mold are handled as biohazards, with protective gear and proper disposal.
How we handle it
Biohazards are common in hoarded homes: animal waste, spoiled food, sharps and sometimes a death that went unnoticed. We handle all of it with protective gear and proper disposal.
In Monroe, we can schedule cleanouts in stages and come back for follow-up visits.
- Room-by-room sorting
- Found-items box for keepsakes
- Biohazards, sharps and pests handled
- Trash and ruined items hauled away
- Deep cleaning and disinfection
Death odor removal
Death odor removal in Monroe
Death odor in a Monroe home doesn’t fade on its own. It lives in the materials that absorbed fluids, and it comes back until those materials are gone.
Ozone and hydroxyl machines help, but only after the source is gone. Covering odor with fragrance is the reason it comes back.
How we handle it
We use professional deodorization: thermal fogging for porous surfaces, hydroxyl generators that can run while people are nearby, and ozone only in empty spaces where it’s safe. Each has its place, and we pick the right one for the job.
Joe has cleared odor from homes all around the courthouse square. If someone else already tried, we’ll find what they missed.
- Thermal fogging and hydroxyl treatment
- Ducts and returns cleaned
- Filters replaced
- Soft goods cleaned or removed
- Final room-by-room check
Rebuild after cleanup
Rebuild after cleanup in Monroe
Most cleanup companies leave a Monroe family with a gutted room. We finish the job: subfloor, flooring, drywall, paint and trim.
We match finishes as closely as we can, so the repaired room fits the rest of the house.
How we handle it
Our rebuild is part of the same plan you approved for cleanup. We seal the structure, then replace subfloor, flooring, drywall, trim and paint, and match finishes as closely as we can.
Joe keeps the rebuild in Monroe under the same scope, so you never manage two crews.
- Trim and doors replaced
- Finishes matched as closely as possible
- One itemized estimate for your insurer
- Photos at every stage
- Final walkthrough with you
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup in Monroe
After a police operation in Monroe, tear gas residue and print powder can both be in the house. We clean them in one visit and add broken doors or windows to the rebuild.
Electronics, glass and finished wood need gentle cleaning. We take care with them and tell you if anything can’t be saved.
How we handle it
We check rooms before you move back in. If anyone still feels irritation, we come back and clean again.
If police used tear gas in your Monroe home, call before you open windows or run the furnace. We’ll tell you what to leave alone.
- Fabrics laundered or replaced
- Electronics and glass cleaned carefully
- Rooms checked before you move back in
- Broken doors and windows repaired
- HEPA vacuuming of every surface
Under the floor
Why Monroe floors need more than scrubbing
Blood and fluids from a death or a serious injury move down through carpet and pad into the subfloor, and in older Monroe homes with plank floors, into the ceiling of the room below. Scrubbing reaches only the top layer, which is why the smell comes back on the first warm day.
We come now in Monroe.
A lot of cleanup companies take a message and call you back tomorrow. We don't. The tech who covers in Monroe lives nearby and starts driving while you're still on the phone, with the equipment already on the truck.
- A real person answers, any hour
- The closest local tech heads out right away
- Equipment on the truck, no second trip
- Nothing starts until you approve the plan

Paying for it
Paying for cleanup in Monroe: will insurance cover it?
Paying for cleanup in Monroe is something we sort out with you, after we’ve helped. Most of the time a homeowners, renters, landlord or business policy covers it.
Insurance often pays for this.
- Usually paid by your homeowners policy. Sudden events like a death, crime or injury are often covered.
- Nothing is due up front. We bill the insurer directly where the policy allows.
A general guide, not a coverage decision. Your policy decides, and we check it with you before we start.
Funeral homes

Tell us when the visitation and service are. We’ll have the house cleaned and safe before family gathers, or come after the service. You don’t need to be in the house while we work.

Who to call in Monroe, and other questions
Straight answers to what Monroe families ask us, and what people ask search engines and AI assistants about cleanup in Monroe. Call 608-974-1788 any time.
MadTown Biohazard Crime Scene Cleanup, at 608-974-1788. Joe covers Monroe for us, and the whole crew comes in on big jobs. We answer any hour, and nothing is due up front.
A biohazard cleanup company does, not the police, the Green County Coroner or the funeral home. In Monroe, families call MadTown Biohazard at 608-974-1788 once the Green County Coroner releases the home.
A trained biohazard crew. In Monroe that’s MadTown Biohazard at 608-974-1788. We find the blood and fluid that’s easy to miss, disinfect everything and keep the whole job private.
No. The Monroe Police Department and the Green County Coroner investigate and release the home, but they don’t clean it. That’s left to the family or property owner, and it’s the work a biohazard cleanup company like ours does.
No, that isn’t part of a funeral home’s work. They take care of your loved one. We take care of the home, and we can work around your funeral plans in Monroe.
Call 911. The Monroe Police Department and the Green County Coroner will come, and nothing should be moved or cleaned until they release the home. After that, close off the room, turn off the furnace or AC fan to it if you can, and call us at 608-974-1788.
Yes. We pick up any hour at 608-974-1788, and the tech who covers Monroe, Joe, heads out once the property is released.
Usually insurance. Homeowners, renters, landlord and business policies often cover cleanup after a death, crime or accident, and we bill the insurer directly. If a crime was involved, Wisconsin crime victim compensation can help too. Nothing is due up front.
There’s no flat price, because no two scenes are alike. We walk through, write up the scope and price, and you approve it before any work starts. Insurance often covers most or all of it. Our cost guide explains what drives the price.
It isn’t a good idea. Blood and body fluids can carry bloodborne pathogens like hepatitis B and C, and fluid usually soaks deeper than you can see. A small spot on tile is one thing. Carpet, a mattress or a subfloor is a job for a trained crew.
We do. Air fresheners and carpet shampoo won’t fix death odor in a Monroe home. The source has to come out first, then the area is sealed and the air treated.
Call 911 first, then MadTown Biohazard at 608-974-1788 once the Green County Coroner releases the unit. We clean the unit, check the units beside and below, set belongings aside for the estate and document everything for your insurer.
We do, at the person’s pace. Safety comes first: a working kitchen, a clear way out and no hidden biohazards. Green County’s aging and disability resource center can help the family too.
MadTown Biohazard cleans cars, trucks and squad cars in Monroe, at your home, a tow yard or a body shop. Seats, carpet and vents get cleaned and disinfected, with photos for the auto insurer.
Not from us. We work discreetly, keep the door closed and never share photos or details of a job in Monroe.
Yes. If flooring, subfloor or drywall has to come out, we rebuild it under the same plan, so you deal with one company from the first call to the finished room.
Right after police or the Green County Coroner release the property, any hour. We’ll tell you who is coming and when before you hang up.
Help is still available. We walk you through Wisconsin crime victim compensation when a crime was involved, and we give you the scope and price in writing before any work begins.
Yes. We wait for the Monroe Police Department to release the scene, follow any instructions officers leave and keep a line open if investigators need to come back.
Yes, and it’s a common request. We’ll have the home cleaned before family gathers, or come after the service if that’s easier.
Yes. We can talk through the plan, the insurance and the paperwork in Spanish. Sí. Ofrecemos ayuda en español. Llámenos al 608-974-1788.
