What Counts as Hazmat Cleaning?
Hazmat cleaning is the professional removal and decontamination of dangerous biological, chemical, or physical substances. This means situations are too risky for regular janitorial services because they pose serious health threats or require special disposal methods.
You need professional hazmat services when dealing with:
Blood and Bodily Fluids:
Cleanup after workplace accidents, medical emergencies, violent crimes, or unattended death scenes.
Crime Scene Cleanup:
Comprehensive decontamination and sanitization after the police have released the area following an investigation.
Chemical Spills:
Remediation of industrial solvents, corrosive cleaning products, or unknown hazardous substances.
Sewage Backups:
Cleanup of Category 3 water containing harmful bacteria, viruses, and pathogens.
Drug Residue:
Decontamination of sites used for the production of illegal drugs, such as methamphetamine labs.
Tear Gas Residue:
Removal of chemical agents and their byproducts after law enforcement deployment.
These situations contain pathogens, toxins, or other hazards that can cause serious illness or death if not handled properly.

Emergency Response and Scene Security
We dispatch immediately upon receiving your call and strive to respond promptly to incidents in the Honolulu area. Our priority is to secure the scene to prevent unauthorized access and further contamination. We establish a command center and begin documenting conditions with photographs.
Hazard Assessment and Planning
Our lead technician identifies all contaminants present and determines the full scope of affected areas. This assessment guides our remediation plan and helps estimate the timeline and costs. We explain our findings and get your approval before beginning work.
Containment and Air Filtration
We seal off the contaminated area using plastic barriers and a negative air pressure system. HEPA air scrubbers prevent airborne contaminants from spreading to clean areas. This containment stays in place throughout the entire cleanup process.
Safe Removal and Disposal
Our technicians wear full protective suits while removing all contaminated materials. Everything is placed in special containers for transport to licensed hazardous waste facilities. We track all waste from your property to final disposal with detailed manifests.
Disinfection and Testing
After removing contaminated materials, we clean all remaining surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectants. We can perform ATP testing to verify cleanliness levels scientifically. This testing measures microscopic organic matter that indicates incomplete cleaning.
