Because vacancy is lower in Portland, at about 6% of homes, contamination is usually found quickly and treated while people still live in the house. Older housing is common in Portland, around 63% built before 1980, and porous materials there often need removal, not just disinfection.
What biohazard decontamination covers:
- Removal of carpet, padding, mattresses and upholstery that germs have soaked into
- Disinfection of touch points such as door handles, switches, rails and counters
- Containment barriers that keep clean rooms separate from the work area
- Odor removal and air treatment once the source of the smell is gone
- Documentation and photos that landlords, insurers and safety staff often request

What Cathedral Park Property Owners Ask About Decontamination
What are the biological hazards in a home?
Common ones include blood, vomit, feces, sewage, mold, pest droppings and dead animals. Illness spread by sick residents can also leave germs on surfaces. Some of these need professional biohazard specialists.
Does insurance cover decontamination?
Sometimes. Some homeowners and renters policies cover cleanup after a covered event, and some exclude certain causes. Call the insurance company before work starts, take photos and keep every receipt. Ask the team whether it can supply paperwork.
What is biohazard remediation?
Biohazard remediation is the full process of containing, removing and treating biological contamination. Decontamination is the last stage, where surfaces are disinfected and checked. Many companies use the two terms for the same job.
Can a car or truck be decontaminated?
Yes. Crews remove soiled mats, seat covers and cushions, clean the cabin and disinfect seats, belts, door pulls and vents. Fleet managers and rideshare drivers often call after a medical event or a mess that cannot wait.
What should I do before the crew arrives?
Keep people and pets out of the affected area. Do not wipe, vacuum or scrub anything. Take photos from a safe distance for your insurer, and call 911 first if anyone is in danger.
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.
