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.

Cleanup Success Rate
"Had a situation in one of our rentals off Division. Called them on a Sunday night, they were there Monday morning. Quote was honest, didn't try to upsell me on anything. Got the unit turned around faster than I expected and the paperwork for our insurance was already done."
Still Have Questions?
How long does a crime scene cleanup take in Augusta?
Most residential scenes are completed within 4 to 8 hours, though larger properties or cases involving extensive structural damage may take a full day or longer. We provide a clear timeline before any work begins.
Does homeowners insurance cover crime scene cleanup?
In most cases, yes. Standard Georgia homeowners and rental property policies often cover biohazard remediation under personal property or dwelling coverage. Our team works directly with your insurer and handles claim documentation on your behalf.
Will my neighbors know what happened?
No. Our trucks and uniforms carry no biohazard branding or company markings that signal the nature of the work. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles to protect your privacy throughout the entire process.
How quickly can your team arrive after a call?
Augusta-area calls receive a response within one to two hours, day or night. Faster arrival means less damage to building materials and a lower overall cost for the property owner.
