Good to know

No crime involved? You still call a crime scene cleanup team

The words sound alarming, but crime scene cleanup is simply what our industry calls hazardous cleaning after a death, an accident or an injury. Most of the time there’s no crime. Police are often the first to arrive, even for a natural death, and that’s a big part of why the term caught on.

Know this: if blood or bodily fluids were left anywhere at your home or business in Sturtevant, 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.

We handle it, crime or not

Our services

Death cleanup in Sturtevant

We’ve cleaned after deaths in village homes, apartments and industrial workplaces across Racine County. Every time, we save what can be saved, explain what can’t, and leave the room safe to walk into.

The Racine County Medical Examiner in Sturtevant 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

Our death cleanup follows the same order every time, because skipping a step is how odor comes back. Inspect and document. Contain the room. Remove porous materials that absorbed fluids, like carpet, pad, mattresses and sections of drywall. Clean and disinfect hard surfaces and the structure underneath. Treat lingering odor at the source, not with a fragrance. Seal what needs sealing. Then walk the room with you, or send photos if you’d rather not come in.

Around residential streets near the village center, many of our death cleanup calls come from adult children handling a parent’s home. We work at your pace.

What's included

Suicide cleanup

Suicide cleanup in Sturtevant

No one in your family should have to see it. Our suicide cleanup here is quiet and private, done on your schedule, and you don’t need to be there while we work.

Whether it happened in a bedroom, a garage or a car, our suicide cleanup in Sturtevant is done gently and privately, with nothing left for your family to find.

How we handle it

When the call comes, families are usually in shock and being asked to make decisions they never expected to make. We keep it simple. One call to us, and we’ll tell you what happens next, how long it will take and what it should cost your insurer. We can coordinate timing with the authorities, meet a relative or the landlord for access and keep you updated by text if that’s easier than talking.

Devonte’s team handles suicide cleanup in Sturtevant with the same quiet care every time, whether it’s a home near residential streets near the village center or a vehicle in a garage.

What's included

Crime scene & homicide cleanup

Crime scene & homicide cleanup in Sturtevant

Crime scenes in village homes, apartments and industrial workplaces 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 Sturtevant quickly and quietly, and help you with the victim compensation paperwork while we work.

How we handle it

Homicide and assault scenes need a careful, methodical process, and the IICRC trauma and crime scene standard lays one out: inspect, document, contain, remove, clean, disinfect and confirm the result. That’s how our techs work. We also keep the family’s privacy in mind the whole time. We arrive without fanfare, keep doors closed and keep what we’re doing between us and you. Paperwork for your insurer and victim compensation comes with the job.

Once the Racine County Sheriff’s Office releases the property, Devonte’s team can usually start right away, and we coordinate timing so you only have to make one call.

What's included

Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup

Tear gas & fingerprint powder cleanup in Sturtevant

We clean up tear gas, pepper spray and fingerprint powder here after investigations and police operations, surface by surface, so it doesn’t come back when the furnace runs.

After a police action in Sturtevant, 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.

How we handle it

Tear gas leaves a fine powder residue that settles on every surface and works its way into carpet, upholstery, clothing, bedding and the HVAC system. Disturb it the wrong way and it becomes airborne again, which is why sweeping or wiping makes it worse. We start by HEPA-vacuuming every surface, then clean with products made for the job, launder or replace fabrics and clean the ductwork and replace filters so the furnace doesn’t keep blowing it around.

If police used tear gas in your home, call before you start airing it out. We’ll tell you what to leave alone.

What's included
We treat every property like it belongs to someone we care about. That means being careful with personal belongings, respecting privacy, and never forgetting why we’re there.

What we see in Sturtevant

Tips for Sturtevant residents

Practical advice from the techs who answer Sturtevant calls.

01

Call before the release

You can call us before the ME releases the home. We’ll be ready to start as soon as it’s cleared.

02

Employers: ask for the waste record

A written record of where biohazard waste went is good to keep in your safety file.

03

Close the vents

If a room has odor, close its supply vents so the furnace doesn’t push it through the house.

Blood & biohazard cleanup

Blood & biohazard cleanup in Sturtevant

From a kitchen fall to an injury on a job site, blood cleanup in Sturtevant needs the right protection and disposal. We bring both, plus documentation for insurance or workers’ comp.

Biohazards in village homes, apartments and industrial workplaces can hide in seams, grout and padding. We find them with the right tools, clean them properly and dispose of them under state rules.

How we handle it

Drug use and sharps are a common reason landlords call us. Needles can turn up in mattresses, couch cushions, drop ceilings and bathroom cabinets, and they’re dangerous for anyone who handles them without training. We sweep the unit for sharps first, then clean and disinfect every surface that may have been contaminated, and dispose of everything under infectious waste rules.

Devonte’s team brings sharps containers and proper waste packaging to every Sturtevant job, so nothing is left behind.

What's included

Rebuild after cleanup

Rebuild after cleanup in Sturtevant

When cleanup here means taking out carpet, pad or drywall, our rebuild is already in the plan you approved. No second company, no second claim.

Cleanup is only half the job. We finish it in Sturtevant with the rebuild, so the room is whole again and your insurer sees one clear estimate.

How we handle it

Insurers want to see what came out and why. We photograph every stage, from the damage to the removal to the finished repair, and give the adjuster an itemized estimate. That keeps the claim moving and keeps you from paying for anything up front. If you’d like to upgrade a finish while the room is open, we’ll price that separately so it never muddies the claim.

For Sturtevant landlords and sellers, we work to your schedule so the unit can be rented or listed again.

What's included

Hoarding cleanout

Hoarding cleanout in Sturtevant

We’ve helped families in Racine County clear homes after years of buildup. We save the photos, papers and treasures and keep the person’s dignity front and center.

A hoarded home in Sturtevant often hides biohazards, mold or pests. We work room by room at a pace the person can handle, and we offer ongoing assistance after the main cleanout.

How we handle it

Hoarded homes often hide hazards that aren’t visible until the clutter comes out: animal or human waste, sharps, mold, rotted flooring and blocked exits. Our techs wear protective gear, handle biohazards under the same rules as any other biohazard job and tell you about anything new before the scope changes. When the cleanout is done, we clean and disinfect so the home is safe to live in again.

Devonte’s team works with families around residential streets near the village center at a pace that respects the person living there.

Local police

We work with the deputies who patrol Sturtevant

We work and meet with local police in every town we serve, and Sturtevant is no exception. Our Sturtevant lead, Devonte, keeps an open line with the Racine County Sheriff’s Office, so deputies know who we are, how we work and that we’re ready when a family needs us.

That relationship matters on your worst day. We never enter a scene until police have released it, we follow any instructions they leave about evidence or access, and if an investigator needs to come back, we work around them.

These links go to official government websites and open in a new tab. We have no paid relationship with any agency.

Paying for it

Paying for cleanup in Sturtevant

In Sturtevant, as everywhere we work, there’s no money up front. We’ll document the job for your insurer, help with Wisconsin crime victim compensation when it applies, and put anything else in writing before we start.

Funeral homes

Working around the funeral in Sturtevant

Families in Sturtevant often ask us to have the home ready before the visitation, when relatives start coming by. Others would rather wait until after the service. Either way works. We plan the cleanup around the funeral, not the other way around.

If you’d like, we’ll talk directly with your funeral director about timing, including getting clothing or keepsakes out of the home first so nothing holds up the arrangements.
