Good to know
“Crime scene cleanup” doesn't always mean a crime
Crime scene cleanup is an industry term. Over the years it has come to cover any hazardous cleaning after a death, injury or accident, and many of the jobs we do don’t involve a crime at all. Even after a natural death, police are often first on the scene, and that’s one of several reasons the name stuck.
Know this: if blood or bodily fluids were left anywhere at your home or business in Janesville, we can help. We clean it, disinfect it and deodorize it with state-of-the-art odor removal, so the space is safe and livable again.
- Natural and unattended deaths
- Accidents, falls and injuries
- Blood and bodily fluids, cleaned and disinfected
- Odors removed with state-of-the-art deodorizing
- Crime scenes, once police release them

Our services
Death cleanup in Janesville
We’ve cleaned after deaths in older homes, rentals and industrial sites across Rock County. Every time, we save what can be saved, explain what can’t, and leave the room safe to walk into.
The Rock County Medical Examiner handles the first steps after a death at home. From there it’s our job: a careful evaluation, a written scope you approve, removal of what’s contaminated and odor removal that lasts.
How we handle it
Decomposition fluids move down and out. They soak through carpet and pad, run along the seams of vinyl and hardwood, and settle into the subfloor and sometimes the joists below. So we start with an inspection of every layer, not just the stain you can see. Then we set up containment so odor and contamination stay in the room, remove the materials that can’t be restored, and clean and disinfect the structure underneath. Odor is treated at the source, and the subfloor is sealed before anything new goes on top. We confirm the room is clean before we call it done.
In Janesville, we see this most in older homes, rentals and industrial sites. Michael and the team know how these homes are built, which matters when fluids have reached the floor below.
- Compliant infectious waste disposal
- Photos and documentation for insurance
- Inspection of flooring, subfloor and walls
- Containment so odor stays in the room
- Removal of carpet, pad and drywall that can't be saved
Suicide cleanup
Suicide cleanup in Janesville
Whether it happened in a bedroom, a garage or a car, our suicide cleanup here is done gently and privately, with nothing left for your family to find.
Suicide cleanup in Janesville is handled by our own trained techs, discreetly. We set personal items aside, clean what can be saved, and share grief resources if you want them.
How we handle it
Suicide cleanup can involve a bedroom, a bathroom, a garage, a vehicle or an outdoor space, and each one needs a different approach. Fabrics and mattresses usually have to go. Tile, hardwood and concrete can often be cleaned and disinfected, though grout and seams take extra care. Vehicles can sometimes be restored. We explain what we’ll do in plain words before we start, and nothing happens without your approval.
If the Rock County Medical Examiner is still involved, we can help you understand the timing so you don’t have to chase phone calls.
- Local grief resources if you want them
- Quiet arrival, no explanations needed
- Blood and fluid removal from every surface
- Walls, ceilings and fixtures checked
- Personal items set aside for the family
Crime scene & homicide cleanup
Crime scene & homicide cleanup in Janesville
Crime scenes in older homes, rentals and industrial sites are rarely limited to one room. We check hallways, stairs, vents and the unit next door, then clean and decontaminate everything you approve, with photos for insurance and victim compensation.
Whether it’s an assault, a homicide or a break-in, we restore the space in Janesville quickly and quietly, and help you with the victim compensation paperwork while we work.
How we handle it
We follow bloodborne pathogen safety on every crime scene: full protective gear, containment so nothing spreads to clean rooms, and proper packaging of every contaminated item. Blood and tissue are treated as infectious waste and leave the property with us for licensed disposal, never in household trash. Once the visible contamination is gone, we clean and disinfect the surfaces underneath and check for anything that seeped in. Then we deodorize and leave the space ready for repairs.
In older homes, rentals and industrial sites, contamination often reaches the next room or the next unit. We check shared spaces in Janesville as standard.
- Blood and bodily fluid removal
- Evidence cut-outs and debris cleared
- Fingerprint powder removal
- Hallways, stairs and nearby units checked
- Bloodborne pathogen safety on every step
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup
Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup in Janesville
After a police action here, tear gas and pepper spray residue can make a home unlivable, and fingerprint powder can coat every door. We remove both without spreading them, including from ductwork and fabrics.
Fingerprint powder is the mess most people don’t expect after a burglary in Janesville. We lift it from doors, frames, glass and furniture without leaving gray smears behind.
How we handle it
Pepper spray residue behaves a lot like tear gas. It’s oily, clings to fabrics and skin and keeps irritating eyes long after it’s used. We treat it the same careful way: contain it, remove it from hard surfaces, launder or replace soft goods and clean the air system. If both tear gas and fingerprint powder are in the same home, we clean the gas first so the powder cleanup doesn’t stir it up.
We clean fingerprint powder for homes and businesses in Janesville after break-ins, often before opening time.
- Tear gas and pepper spray residue removed
- Fingerprint powder lifted without smearing
- Ductwork cleaned and filters replaced
- Fabrics laundered or replaced
- Electronics and glass cleaned carefully

Blood & biohazard cleanup
Blood & biohazard cleanup in Janesville
Our blood and biohazard cleanup in Janesville covers homes, cars, workplaces and rentals: bodily fluids, sharps, drug residue and animal waste, all packaged and disposed of under state rules.
From a kitchen fall to an injury on a job site, blood cleanup in Janesville needs the right protection and disposal. We bring both, plus documentation for insurance or workers’ comp.
How we handle it
Home accidents are the most common reason people call us for blood cleanup: a bad fall, a deep cut, a medical emergency. It feels like something you should be able to handle with a bucket and bleach, but bleach can set stains and doesn’t reach what soaked into pad and grout. We clean it properly the same day when we can, check under the flooring, and leave the room disinfected and odor-free.
In Janesville, blood and biohazard calls come from homes, cars and workplaces alike. Businesses near downtown on the Rock River often need us after hours.
- Hospital-grade cleaning and disinfection
- Homes, cars, rentals and workplaces
- After-hours work for businesses
- Infectious waste packed and hauled away

Rebuild after cleanup
Rebuild after cleanup in Janesville
Cleanup is only half the job. We finish it here with the rebuild, so the room is whole again and your insurer sees one clear estimate.
If flooring, subfloor or drywall has to come out, we rebuild it. In Janesville you deal with one company, one scope and one insurance claim, from the first call to the finished room.
How we handle it
Serious cleanups often mean taking out carpet, pad, subfloor, drywall or trim. Most cleanup companies stop there and leave you to find a contractor. We don’t. The rebuild is written into the same scope you approved at the start, so there’s one company, one plan and one insurance claim. We install new subfloor and flooring, hang and finish drywall, replace trim and doors and paint, matching what was there as closely as we can.
In older homes, rentals and industrial sites, we match flooring and trim as closely as we can so the repaired room fits the rest of the house.
- Structure sealed before new materials go in
- Finishes matched as closely as possible
- Itemized estimate for your insurer
- Photos at every stage
- Final walkthrough with you
Hoarding cleanout
Hoarding cleanout in Janesville
Hoarding situations in Janesville often start with a worried family member. We meet you there, walk through together and make a plan the person can live with.
We’ve helped families in Rock County clear homes after years of buildup. We save the photos, papers and treasures and keep the person’s dignity front and center.
How we handle it
Landlords sometimes find a hoarded unit only when a tenant moves out or passes away. We give you a written scope, clear the unit, set aside anything that might belong to the tenant’s family and document the condition with photos. Then we clean, disinfect and, if you want, rebuild the floors and walls so the unit can be rented again.
In Janesville, we can schedule cleanouts in stages and come back for ongoing assistance visits.
- Trash and damaged items hauled away
- Deep cleaning and disinfection
- Ongoing assistance visits
- Floor and wall repairs if needed
- A plan agreed with the homeowner first
