Contaminated debris and soaked materials come out first. Floors, walls and fixtures are then scrubbed, rinsed and treated with a hospital-grade disinfectant.
Waste is packed for regulated hauling, and odor is treated at its source. The crew shows the owner the finished area and explains the paperwork.
