Biohazard & trauma cleaning in Ilfracombe
Discreet, fully-insured biohazard, trauma and crime scene cleaning in Ilfracombe, answered 24 hours a day, and often covered by insurance.

We answer at any hour and plan the approach carefully on the steep hills so the work stays discreet.

How the clean-up works
The same careful process on every job, whatever has happened and wherever in Ilfracombe it is.
- 1
Assess
We attend, assess the property and the contamination, and agree a written price before any work begins. The assessment is free.
- 2
Contain
We isolate the affected area so nothing spreads to clean parts of the property, and set up the right protective controls.
- 3
Remove
Contaminated materials that cannot be salvaged are removed and bagged for disposal through a licensed clinical-waste carrier.
- 4
Clean & disinfect
Every affected surface is cleaned and treated with hospital-grade disinfectant to a verifiable standard.
- 5
Deodorise
We treat lingering odour at source rather than masking it, so the property does not smell of what happened.
- 6
Verify & hand over
We check the result, confirm the area is safe to use again, and provide documentation for landlords or insurers where needed.

Questions people in Ilfracombe ask
Do I need to call the council or the police first?
If a crime or a sudden death is involved, the police attend first and will release the property when they are done; we work after that. For anything else you can call us directly, and if you are unsure we will tell you the right order to do things.
Will anyone know what has happened?
No. We arrive in an unmarked van, in plain clothing, and work discreetly. Nothing on the vehicle or our approach identifies the nature of the job to neighbours in Ilfracombe.
Is biohazard cleaning in Ilfracombe covered by insurance?
Often, yes. Trauma, crime scene and unattended-death cleaning is frequently covered by home, contents or landlord insurance. We can quote for the claim and deal with your insurer directly so you do not have to.
What areas around Ilfracombe do you cover?
We cover the whole of Ilfracombe, including Hele, Slade, Torrs Park, Highfield, Wilder Road and Capstone, and the surrounding area. Nearby towns such as Barnstaple have their own dedicated pages.
