Common Questions About Suicide Clean Up in East Sacramento, Sacramento, CA
Is the odor a concern after a suicide?
It can be if the person was not found right away. Odor comes from fluids soaked into carpet, padding and subfloor, and sprays only cover it for a short time. The source must be removed and the air and structure treated.
What should I ask a suicide clean up company before hiring?
Ask how it contains the area, what protective gear it uses and how it disposes of waste. Ask what the price includes and whether you get records for an insurer. Ask how it treats odor and what happens if a smell remains.
Do I have to see the room?
No. Many families never enter the room. The cleanup team can work while you stay elsewhere, and you can ask a friend, landlord or representative to meet the crew for access. Photos and records can be shared if you want them.
Who is responsible for cleaning up after a suicide?
Police and the medical examiner do not clean. The property owner, the family or the estate books the cleanup, and a biohazard cleanup team does the work. In a rental, the lease and local law decide who pays, and a landlord or attorney can explain the details.
I found someone at home. What do I do first?
Call 911 and leave the room. Do not touch anything. Once the authorities have finished and released the property, a cleanup team can take over. Be gentle with yourself, and know that 988 offers support by call or text if you need to talk.
Does a cleanup team replace grief counseling?
No. A cleanup team cleans the room and takes care of the physical aftermath. Grief is a separate and important matter. Counselors, faith leaders and support groups can help, and 988 is open to anyone in distress at any hour.
