When Augusta Police and the Coroner Are Done, the Cleanup Is Yours
Richmond County recorded 50 homicides in 2024, the highest annual count under Sheriff Roundtree's 12-year tenure and a 31% increase over the 38 the year before. Our crews respond into that context regularly, and once the Richmond County Sheriff's Office and the Richmond County Coroner's Office have completed their work, the property comes back to the owner or family with a cleanup timeline that runs on its own clock.
How quickly the response begins determines how broad the eventual cleanup scope ends up being. Biological material continues to soak into the porous parts of the building over time. Augusta's summer humidity can drive mold growth alongside the contamination in materials that have been compromised. In multi-unit buildings along Washington Road and the corridor toward downtown, shared ventilation means contamination can move beyond the affected unit if containment is not established quickly. Our crews respond around the clock across Augusta-Richmond County and the surrounding CSRA.
Our Augusta Crime Scene Cleanup Process
Scene Assessment
Our team walks the property and tests surfaces to locate every area affected by blood or fluids.
Containment Setup
Plastic barriers and air filters seal off the work area, keeping contamination from spreading further.
Removal of Affected Materials
Any carpet, drywall, or insulation that has absorbed biological matter is cut out and safely bagged.
Surface Cleaning and Disinfection
Hard surfaces are scrubbed and treated with hospital-grade disinfectants approved for bloodborne pathogens.
Odor Removal
Ozone or hydroxyl machines clear smells from the air, fabric, and wood throughout the space
Final Inspection
A retest confirms the area is fully decontaminated, with written documentation provided to the owner
What a Crime Scene Cleanup at an Augusta Property Involves
Our crew enters the work area after the perimeter has been sealed and full protective gear is on. Plastic sheeting separates the affected zone from the rest of the home, and air filtration is operating before anyone in the crew touches a surface inside containment. For Augusta's multi-unit apartment stock along Washington Road, the Wrightsboro corridor, and toward downtown, the containment setup also accounts for shared ventilation paths between units.
Carpet pad, drywall, upholstery, subflooring, every porous material holding contamination is extracted, sealed for medical waste transport, and routed on documented chain of custody to a permitted disposal facility. Hard surfaces are treated using EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant carrying validation against HIV, hepatitis B and C, and MRSA, with the manufacturer's specified contact window running through on each pass. For Augusta properties where summer humidity has driven mold growth alongside the contamination, antifungal treatment is built into the protocol before closeout. The closing measurement comes from cellular-level biological testing, and the written clearance file is handed back to the property owner at job's end.
