The number of rooms involved changes the total, since each affected area needs its own containment, cleaning and disinfection.

| Blood cleanup, published span | $300 - $4,000 |
These ranges come from published cost guides (BioCleaners Directory, Biohazard cleanup company pricing guide) and are not a quote for Westgate. Price drivers include type and amount of fluid, porous or hard surfaces, waste disposal, whether odor treatment is needed. For a real number, call (877) 812-4220.
Urine is treated with caution when it is part of a contamination, especially if mixed with blood or other fluids. Large amounts that soak into flooring or mattresses are cleaned with protective gear and disinfected. Odor often stays behind unless the soaked materials are removed.
It depends on the amount of fluid, the surfaces involved and how many rooms are affected. A small spill on tile is a short job. Fluids that reached carpet, padding or subfloor take longer because materials must be removed.
Dried waste can still carry germs, and sweeping or scrubbing it can send particles into the air. That is why it is cleaned carefully with protection and a disinfectant instead of dry sweeping or vacuuming.
Wash the skin with soap and water right away, and rinse the eyes or mouth with clean water if fluid splashed there. Then talk with a doctor or the local health department about next steps. This is general information, not medical advice.
Put on disposable gloves and eye protection, lift the waste with disposable towels and bag it. Then clean the area and use an EPA-registered disinfectant by the label. Soaked porous materials usually have to be removed, so call a cleanup team when waste has spread.
Blood and other body fluids that may carry germs are treated as biohazards. Some, such as blood, can carry bloodborne pathogens like hepatitis B and HIV. Cleanup crews handle all of them with the same protection, because the source of a fluid is not always known.
