We're Here to Help After a Loss

When a loved one passes away and is not found right away, the home is left with damage that goes far deeper than what you can see. Bodily fluids seep into mattresses, carpet, subfloors, and walls, and the odor can spread through the entire home. Aftermath handles the cleanup with compassion, so you do not have to.


Texas heat can make this even harder. High temperatures speed up decomposition, which means contamination and odor can spread further in less time. Calling a professional team quickly helps limit the damage to the home.

What Our Unattended Death Cleanup Includes

Our local cleanup team is available 24/7 for fast and efficient remediation of even the most serious and traumatic cleanup needs.

Once the medical examiner or justice of the peace has released the home, we inspect every affected area and walk you through the plan.

We remove bodily fluids and all contaminated materials, including furniture, carpet, and flooring that cannot be saved.

We clean and disinfect all affected surfaces using our multi-stage process and EPA-registered disinfectants.

We treat the source of the odor, not just the air, so it does not return, and restore the property to a safe, habitable condition.

We take care with personal belongings. Photos, documents, jewelry, and keepsakes are set aside whenever they can be safely recovered, so you do not lose what matters most.

We ATP-test surfaces and walk through the space with you before we leave.

Unattended death cleanup is often covered by homeowners insurance, and we provide the documentation your carrier needs. We serve families across Texas, including Houston, San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Midland, and Odessa.

 

If a death occurred in a car, it can often be salvaged. Professional material removal, disinfection, and odor treatment can safely restore most vehicles, though severe damage may result in a total loss. Many auto policies include coverage.

Our technicians are GBAC-trained and follow IICRC S540 standards and OSHA bloodborne pathogen requirements. Aftermath holds a BBB A+ rating and has helped families move forward with compassion and care since 1996.

What our clients are saying

Christopher and his Assistant Manager Trainee Gabriel took care of my tenants (who was family) apartment swiftly. It was disgusting in there. Will be going back to this company if a situation arises like this in the future. Drive home safe guys and thank you for your hard work.

John I.

From my initial contact with Jeanine to the final walk through with Jason, Tristan, Marquel and Fritz Aftermath services has been tremendously upfront, kind and compassionate after the death of my sister. During such a difficult time I never would have thought that I would walk away with five new friends. I am forever grateful.

FAQ

Our team is available 24/7, 365 days a year. Once you contact us, we assess the situation and coordinate service as quickly as possible.

In many cases, yes. Homeowners and commercial policies often cover biohazard cleanup, and we provide the documentation your carrier needs and may work with them directly so you are not managing the claim alone.

Stay out of the affected area and avoid touching or cleaning anything yourself. Biohazards can carry infectious material, and our team brings the protective equipment needed to handle it safely.

We handle crime scenes, unattended deaths, suicides, hoarding, narcotics contamination, and other biohazard situations in homes, businesses, and vehicles. If you are not sure whether your situation qualifies, call us and we will tell you.

We use ATP testing to verify that surfaces have been properly disinfected before we hand the space back. You get the results, so nobody has to judge safety by how the room looks.

No. You can call at any point, and we will coordinate with investigators so work begins as soon as the scene is released.

Yes. We arrive in unmarked vehicles, keep our work out of view where possible, and do not discuss your situation with neighbors or anyone outside your household.

Most residential jobs are finished in a single day. Larger scenes, hoarding properties, and severe contamination can take several days, and we give you a time estimate after the on-site assessment.
