Hoffman Estates is home to dense apartment communities, senior living buildings, medical offices, and corporate spaces that sit close to quiet residential neighborhoods. When an emergency happens in one of these buildings, the effects are often contained behind closed doors, but the health risks do not stay contained.
A resident passes away alone in a condo.
A medical emergency happens in a clinic or assisted living apartment.
A sewer line backs up in a bathroom or kitchen.
A tenant leaves behind animal waste, strong odors, or unsafe living conditions.
These situations leave behind biological contamination that can make a space unsafe to enter, even if it looks clean on the surface.
Pro Tech Restoration provides certified biohazard cleanup in Hoffman Estates to remove these risks and return the property to safe condition.
What is Considered a Biohazard?
A situation becomes a biohazard when blood, bodily fluids, sewage, decomposition, drug residue, or animal waste is present in a way that creates a health risk. These materials do not stay on the surface. They soak into carpet, flooring, drywall, and even air systems, allowing bacteria and odor to spread throughout the building.
Once this happens, the space is no longer safe for families, tenants, employees, or customers until it is professionally cleaned and disinfected.
How Pro Tech Restoration handles biohazard cleanup
Pro Tech Restoration follows IICRC and OSHA standards so your home or building is cleaned safely and correctly. When we arrive, we first secure the affected area and use air filtration to keep bacteria and odors from spreading to other rooms or units.
Anything that cannot be safely disinfected, such as carpet, padding, drywall, or insulation, is removed and sealed for proper disposal. All remaining surfaces are then cleaned and treated with hospital grade disinfectants to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and contamination.
We use air scrubbing and deodorization equipment to restore clean air throughout the space. All waste is handled according to health and safety regulations, and if materials were removed, Pro Tech Restoration can also take care of the repairs so your property is fully restored.

In most cases, yes, at least temporarily. Biohazard cleanup involves containment, air filtration, and disinfectants that make the area unsafe for employees or customers. For offices, retail spaces, or medical buildings in Hoffman Estates, this is usually limited to the affected rooms, but shared air systems may require a wider closure until air quality is restored.
Yes, when done correctly. Odors are caused by organic material that has soaked into building materials and the air. Professional deodorization and air scrubbing are designed to remove the source of the odor, not just mask it.
Yes. Blood, bodily fluids, and sewage can break down subflooring, drywall, and insulation if left untreated. That is why removal of building materials is sometimes necessary to prevent long term damage and odor problems.
If there is blood, bodily fluid, sewage, strong decomposition odor, drug residue, or animal waste involved, it is safest to treat it as a biohazard. You can call Pro Tech Restoration for guidance before attempting to enter or clean the area.
Policies vary, but when animal waste or odor contamination results from a covered peril (such as a sewage backup that is included in your policy or with sewer backup coverage), insurance can cover cleanup and related remediation. Odor alone is not usually a standalone covered loss.
Standard homeowners insurance generally covers sudden and accidental events like blood or bodily fluid cleanup after a covered loss, but this varies by policy and insurer. Sewage backup and other contaminated water damage are not covered unless you have specific add-ons or endorsements. Checking your declarations page or talking to your agent is essential to know what is included in your specific policy.

"Had a great experience working with Marshall when we had an emergency leak at my mom’s house. He immediately started working to salvage what we could. I felt like he absolutely understood the urgency, and treated my mom like his own! He and the rest of the team were super easy to work with and answered our (many) questions along the way. They were very transparent about the process which was extremely helpful as this was our first time with this kind of issue in 30+ years of owning the house. We so appreciate ProTech for aiding us during our time of need."

"My experience with ProTech was wonderful from the first visit thru the last. Ben did a great job of evaluating the work that needed to be done and explaining everything to me. Frank and Sergio were great to work with because they were pleasant AND they were so very careful about everything they did. All in all, I give the ProTech team an A+!"

"I had a pipe burst and subsequent leakage into my basement. At first I thought that we maybe stopped it in time since we could not see obvious damage but Marshall at ProTech said it would be a good idea to check it out anyway and came out within a couple of days. I’m so glad he did since there was more damage than we anticipated. Marshall explained the damage thoroughly using his imaging techniques and provided a quote within the day. Pricing was good and our insurance accepted the proposal immediately. The ProTech team was able to do the water damage mitigation about a week after the incident and on a Saturday no less. Everything was done super quickly and professionally. While I do not want to deal with any more water damage, the repairs using ProTech were painless. I would recommend this company and especially Marshall to anyone in the same situation."
