Often, yes. Homeowners and renters insurance commonly covers biohazard cleanup after a sudden event such as a death, a crime or a sewage backup, minus your deductible.
Coverage usually applies to sudden, accidental events. Hoarding and long-term neglect usually are not. Speak with your insurance company before cleanup begins.

After a death, cleanup costs can often be paid by the estate. This is generally managed by the executor or a family member.
Call any hour. You can ask a cleanup specialist what happens next.
Biohazards are real health hazards that can make people seriously ill, and the contamination you can see is rarely all of it.
Blood can support hepatitis C, HIV and hepatitis B. The CDC reports that hepatitis B can remain on surfaces for at least seven days.
Within 24 to 48 hours, wet materials may begin growing mold. Raw sewage carries salmonella, hepatitis A and E. coli.
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. If contaminated matter is left behind, bacteria and odor return. Decontamination services remove that matter.
Decomposition creates bacteria, gases and fluids that enter floors, then travel along the ventilation system into nearby rooms.
You hear the cleanup plan, every step and what affects the price before anything is removed. No pressure and no surprises.
Documentation for your insurance company, landlord or state victim program includes photographs, scope details and waste records.
There is no judgment around neglect or hoarding, only consideration for your family during a difficult time. Items important to you, including photos and documents, are set apart.
You can call for emergency service at any hour, and crews come in unmarked vehicles so nearby residents and building staff are not told what occurred.

Describe what occurred. Technicians examine and photograph the area, then confirm the work scope with you.
Technicians enclose the affected area in plastic so other parts of the property stay separated.
To keep affected material from being left behind, technicians cut out carpet, pad, drywall and other porous items that absorbed infectious materials, then seal them as medical waste.
Cleaning every surface is followed by treatment with hospital-grade, EPA-registered disinfectant.
Treatment reaches the source of odors with hydroxyl, air scrubbers or ozone, followed by a check of the vents.
Sealed waste goes to a permitted medical waste treatment facility, with tracking paperwork.
Where needed, ATP testing helps check that the space has returned to a livable condition. You also get photographs and documentation for your claim.
