With about 56% of Seattle households renting, property managers frequently need a unit disinfected and documented before move-in. Older housing is common in Seattle, around 53% built before 1980, and porous materials there often need removal, not just disinfection.
The work often covers:
- Cleaning of equipment, tools and furniture that can be safely kept and reused
- A second, careful disinfection pass after a first cleanup left areas untreated
- Sealing and labeling of contaminated waste for regulated medical waste hauling
- Removal of carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstery that germs have soaked into
- Decontamination of rooms touched by blood, bodily fluids, sewage or animal waste

Questions About Decontamination and Disinfection in Seaview, Seattle, WA
How do you decontaminate after COVID-19 or other illness?
Crews clean, then disinfect touch points, bedding, floors and shared surfaces with products suited to the germ. They wear PPE and bag soiled items safely. The same process applies to C. diff, norovirus and other infections.
What is the difference between biohazard cleanup and decontamination?
Cleanup removes blood, bodily fluids and other material from a scene. Decontamination makes the cleaned surfaces and the space safe again through cleaning and disinfecting. Most jobs include both, and the crew can explain how it treats each.
Does decontamination remove odors?
It does when the source is removed. Smells from sewage, fluids or decay live in porous materials and subfloors, so crews take those out and treat the air. Air fresheners cover a smell for only a short time.
Do I need to be home during the work?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call.
What is biohazard decontamination?
Biohazard decontamination is the process of cleaning and disinfecting a space after blood, bodily fluids, sewage or similar material. Crews wear protective gear, remove items that cannot be saved and apply a disinfectant matched to the germs involved. The goal is a space safe to use again.
Is bleach enough to disinfect?
Not always. Different germs need different products, and the product label says what it targets and how long it must stay wet. Never mix bleach with other cleaners, because some mixes make harmful gases. A local team picks products that match the germs involved.
