Biohazard Cleanup Companies in Athens, GA

Athens, Georgia, has eight biohazard cleanup companies, and they work across county lines into Jackson, Madison and Gwinnett counties. Jefferson, Commerce and Bogart are the smaller towns where several of the businesses are based, so the local trade runs as much between towns as it does inside the city.

Trauma scene cleanup is a regulated trade in this state, and people who do it must be registered or licensed with the state. Bio-One of Athens, Sentry and Northeastern Restoration each describe crime scene work, so the crime scene side of the market is held by firms that carry that registration.

Restoration firms with a biohazard service form the other layer. SERVPRO of Athens handles biohazard and crime scene cleanup, sewage cleanup, virus and pathogen cleaning and odor removal, along with air duct, carpet and upholstery cleaning. Serclean, based in Bogart, is a water damage restoration company that also does biohazard cleaning and sewage cleanup, and Restoration Specialist answers burst water heaters, sewage backups and floods around the clock.

The firms that go deepest into trauma work are Sentry and Northeastern Restoration. Sentry is a woman-owned firm headquartered in Athens, and it handles biohazard cleanup, hoarding cleanouts, blood cleanup, and homicide and suicide cleanup for residential, commercial and insurance projects. Northeastern Restoration adds crime scene cleanup, hoarder cleanouts and drug lab cleanup to its water extraction and flood work.
