Biohazard cleanup in Riverhead

What we run into in Riverhead

Riverhead is where the year-round Island starts turning into the East End. Some properties here are lived in every day and some are shut for months, and an unattended death in a house nobody has entered since the autumn is a materially different job from one discovered within a day. There is also more agricultural and light industrial property around the town than people expect, and old chemical storage in an outbuilding is a call we take regularly out here.

• Properties that sit empty for part of the year, so a death or a leak can go undiscovered far longer than it would in an occupied house.
• Larger grounds and outbuildings, which means more places for hazardous material to have been stored and forgotten.
• Well water and septic on many properties, which changes how we handle waste water.
• Caretakers and property managers as the point of contact rather than the owner.

Who calls us from Riverhead

Property managers and caretakers, seasonal owners, estate executors, and families dealing with a house that has been closed up.

Getting a crew in and material out

We plan around who actually holds the keys and how far the property is from a road. On longer jobs out here we will tell you honestly whether it makes sense to run consecutive days rather than back and forth.
