A landlord, manager or relative sets up access. The crew confirms what the owner, the estate or the insurer needs to see.

2. Contaminated materials out

Carpet, padding, bedding and furniture that absorbed fluids are cut out, bagged and removed. Porous items cannot be made safe by washing.

Cleaned surfaces are disinfected, and bare subfloor is sealed when needed to keep odor from returning.
