Death and unattended death scenes can emotionally traumatize those that suddenly discover a decomposing corpse, and blood and bodily fluids are dangerous bio hazards that pose a health risk to those exposed. Due to their gruesome nature, death cleanup and unattended death cleanup are further complicated when a crime has been committed. Whether the person is recently deceased or has been dead for several days or months, it is critically important to call a professional death cleanup provider. Aftermath’s experts are prepared to handle death cleanup every step of the way, and we offer additional support and guidance to help those affected by tragedy to begin their path to recovery.
Death Cleanup
Left exposed to the elements, a dead body decomposes very quickly, and few are emotionally prepared for the sights and odors that accompany a death cleanup scene. When someone dies alone it’s termed an “unattended death”, and it may be several days or months before the body is found creating foul odors.

"Thank you for making our lives easier at a very difficult time. You were compassionate and professional. We appreciate your hard work."
Review by Nicole H., Punxsutawney, PA
"Following an unbelievable tragedy, I was met by a compassionate on site supervisor, who proceeded to assume responsibility for which I was unprepared and unable emotionally to handle. Was notified about every step of process being taken, and all was done in a professional manner. Matt still keeps in touch concerning the repairs and our emotional state. Through this horrible tragedy, I felt comforted by his professional manner and felt that I had also made a friend. I would highly recommend Aftermath."
