Your call starts with plain questions about what happened and where. The answers let the crew bring the right gear and plan the work.

Contaminated material is removed and sealed. Every affected surface is cleaned, then disinfected with products that stay wet for the full contact time.
The crew goes through the finished space with the owner or manager. Waste leaves in sealed containers and the property is ready for the next step.
