Trusted Team for Crime Scene and Trauma Cleanup Services

Trauma events in Lancaster homes and businesses need immediate, specialised cleanup to protect everyone on the property. Blood and bodily fluids carry serious pathogens that cannot be removed with normal cleaning products. In older Lancaster buildings, contamination can spread quickly into porous flooring, walls, and hidden gaps, making fast professional response essential.

Major Restoration provides discreet, certified trauma cleanup that protects your health and stops contamination from spreading. Our technicians follow strict safety protocols, remove all affected materials, disinfect the entire area, and restore the space to safe conditions. When situations involve additional biological hazards, our team also handles biohazard cleanup so you do not need multiple contractors.

Lancaster residents rely on us because we respond quickly, work with compassion, and restore properties the right way from start to finish. If you need immediate trauma cleanup, our local team is ready to help now.

Biohazard & Trauma Cleanup We Service

Crime scenes and traumatic events require specialised cleaning to remove health risks and restore the property safely. Major Restoration delivers certified biohazard cleanup that protects your home, complies with safety standards, and prevents long-term contamination.

Homicide & Suicide Cleanup

We remove bloodborne pathogens and contaminated materials with strict safety controls. Fast cleanup prevents odors, staining, and deeper contamination that can spread into flooring and substructures.

Unattended Death & Decomposition Cleanup

Decomposition releases strong odors and hazardous biological fluids that penetrate surfaces. Our team stabilises the area, removes affected materials, and sanitises the space to protect indoor air and structural integrity.

Industrial Accident Restoration

Worksite accidents can leave behind hazardous debris and bodily fluids that require certified handling. We clean, disinfect, and secure the area so operations can resume safely.

Blood & Bodily Fluid Remediation

Blood and fluids seep into porous materials and can carry harmful pathogens. We extract, disinfect, and restore affected areas to prevent ongoing exposure risks.

Tear Gas Cleanup & Neutralisation

Tear gas settles into walls, HVAC systems, and soft materials, making spaces unsafe until properly treated. We neutralise residues and restore safe breathing conditions throughout the property.

Hoarding Cleanup & Sanitisation

Hoarding environments often contain hidden biohazards, structural risks, and airborne contaminants. Our team clears debris, sanitises the property, and prepares the home for safe use or future repairs.

Vehicle Biohazard Cleaning

We decontaminate vehicles affected by blood, bodily fluids, or trauma-related hazards. All surfaces are cleaned, disinfected, and restored according to strict biohazard standards.

If you need discreet, certified trauma cleanup in Lancaster PA, our team provides fast response, strict safety compliance, and complete restoration from start to finish.

Why You Should Never Clean a Trauma Scene Yourself

Crime scene and trauma cleanup involves hazards that require certified handling. DIY cleaning leaves dangerous contamination behind and puts your health at risk.

Why DIY Cleanup Is Unsafe

Active pathogens remain on surfaces. Bloodborne risks like hepatitis and bacteria cannot be removed with normal cleaning products.
Biofluids soak into materials. Fluids absorb into flooring, walls, and furniture, creating hidden contamination and strong odors.
Improper cleaning spreads hazards further. Wiping, scrubbing, or vacuuming can push contaminants into the air or into clean rooms.
Some materials must be removed. Carpet, drywall, and porous items cannot be sanitised once exposed and need certified disposal.
Biohazard waste requires regulated handling. OSHA and Pennsylvania rules govern how biohazards must be cleaned and disposed of.
Emotional impact makes the task overwhelming. A professional team removes the burden and restores the space safely.

If you need trauma or crime scene cleanup in Lancaster PA, our team delivers safe, discreet, fully certified service so your property is truly clean and ready to use.

How We Handle Crime Scene & Trauma Cleanup

Trauma scenes in Lancaster properties require careful handling to prevent contamination and restore the space safely. Our team follows a disciplined, step-by-step process designed to protect your home and the people in it.

Assess And Contain The Area

We inspect the scene to identify all affected zones and set up containment to stop contaminants from spreading. This keeps the rest of the property safe while work begins.

Remove Hazards And Bio-Wash

All biological materials and unsalvageable porous items are removed and disposed of properly. We then perform a controlled bio-wash to clean and stabilise every surface.

Disinfect And Verify Cleanliness

We apply hospital-grade disinfectants to eliminate pathogens on all treated surfaces.

Deodorise And Restore The Space

We use air scrubbers to remove airborne particles and odors, ensuring safe indoor air. Once the space is cleared, our team repairs flooring, drywall, or finishes to return the room to pre-incident condition.

Anthony and Cam did an awesome job of putting our room back together the way it was before the flooding.  I would highly recommend Major and Anthony and Cam!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We can’t say enough amazing things about Major Restoration Services! After an incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience with ServPro, Major Restorations came in and completely turned our situation around. From the very first phone call to the final walk-through, they were fair, transparent, and professional every step of the way.

Duy was incredible—he came out right away to assess the water damage, had a detailed estimate to us the same day, and got the job started the very next morning. From there, the entire project was completed in less than a month! He even reviewed our outrageous invoice from ServPro and pointed out where they were clearly overcharging us. His honesty and industry knowledge were such a breath of fresh air.

Tyler started tear-out and water remediation and was fantastic—thorough and clearly knew exactly what needed to be done. Jay and Cameron took care of the remodel and we couldn’t be happier with the quality of their work. They were friendly, respectful, and clearly cared about doing the job right.

We truly hope we never need water damage services again, but if we do—or need any remodel work—Major Restoration Services will be our very first call. This is a company that genuinely cares about their clients and takes pride in doing the job right. They’ve earned our trust and our business for life!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wanted to make sure I leave a review of the team at Major Restoration. I purchased my first home in May of 2024. Within days of moving in, I had a plumbing issue that needed immediate correction. I contacted my insurance company who has a national contract with another national restoration service. After the initial company came to my house, they remediated the sewage damage and I was told I would be contacted by the restoration team to complete the restoration. MONTHS went by with little to no response from the other company. After getting the run around for months and not having use of my first level and full bathroom, I had my fill of the nonsense. I reached out to Major Restoration, hoping beyond hope that the team there could help me. My initial call was exactly what I needed at the time - I was met with compassion and quick estimate set up. Duoy and Brian came out to see what was left after the other company refused to complete the work. They were extremely kind, compassionate and thorough, ensuring that the estimate they worked up for the insurance company would completely restore my first level and get me whole again. Within weeks, the team at Major Restoration begun the work of putting things back together for me. They worked with a plumbing sub-con, DeRose Plumbing, who were also very kind, respectful and understanding. Major didn't just restore my first level - they made the space BETTER than it was when I bought it. The work they did was NEXT LEVEL. My family room, bathroom and laundry room are the showpiece of my house now, thanks to Major! I can't recommend this team enough. They were thorough, professional, kind and respectful. Every single team member, from the estimate team to the restoration crew to the office staff, treated me with respect and kindness, and the restoration work was completed impeccably. My only regret is that I listened to my insurance company and allowed them to pull in a national company to address the issue. In the future, my first choice will be Major Restoration.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Restoration Services

Many Lancaster homeowners have urgent questions when dealing with a crime scene or trauma event. These FAQs explain what to expect, what is covered, and how the cleanup process works so you can make clear decisions during a stressful time.

Will homeowners insurance cover crime scene cleanup in Lancaster PA?

Most policies include coverage for biohazard and trauma cleanup, but the amount depends on how the incident is classified and what endorsements you have. In many cases, cleanup related to bloodborne pathogens, bodily fluids, or property damage is eligible for reimbursement.

Claims approval often requires proper documentation and photos. Our team can review the scene, help gather the required information, and communicate with your adjuster so you understand what is likely to be covered.

Are crime scene cleanup vehicles unmarked?

Yes. Many clients request privacy during sensitive situations, especially in Lancaster neighborhoods where homes are close together. Our team can arrive in unmarked vehicles so the work stays discreet. This allows cleanup to begin without drawing attention or creating additional stress for the household.

Is it safe to stay in the home during crime scene cleanup?

It depends on the type and severity of the contamination. You can usually stay in the home if the affected area is isolated and properly contained.

If there are bloodborne pathogens, strong odors, decomposition, or tear gas residue, temporary relocation may be necessary due to airborne risks and sanitation requirements. Our team will evaluate the scene and give clear guidance on what is safest for you.

How fast can a crime scene cleanup team arrive in Lancaster PA?

Emergency teams are available around the clock and typically reach most Lancaster properties in about an hour. Fast arrival helps limit odor, contamination, and long term damage to surfaces and materials.

Crews come prepared with containment supplies and disinfectants so cleanup can begin immediately. Calling as soon as possible ensures the affected area is secured and treated quickly.
