It depends on the size of the spill and the materials involved. A small spill on tile is a short job. Blood that reached carpet, padding or subfloor takes longer because materials must be removed and the area disinfected.
Surface stains may lift, but blood that soaked through carpet and padding can sit in the subfloor and keep carrying germs and odor. In that case the soaked carpet and padding are cut out and disposed of as waste.
A small spill on a hard surface can be cleaned with gloves, eye protection and an EPA-registered disinfectant. Do not do it if you have an open cut, or if blood has soaked into carpet, wood or grout. When in doubt, call a blood cleanup company.
Blood cleanup is handled discreetly. Ask when you call about unmarked vehicles and quiet work. Cleaners are there for the property owner, not to draw attention.
Hospitals use hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectants after the visible blood has been removed. Professional blood cleaners use the same kind of products, matched to the surface and the germ list on the label.
The price depends on the size of the spill, how deep the blood soaked in, the surface type and how much waste is removed. A cleanup company gives a price after seeing the affected area. Some teams offer payment plans, so ask when you call.
One call starts the cleanup, disinfection and disposal.
