About 67% of households in San Joaquin are renters, so many crime scenes involve a landlord, a lease and often a tenant's own insurance. Most homes in San Joaquin are newer, but carpet, padding and drywall still absorb fluids, so crews check what is under the surface.

A typical crime scene cleanup job includes:

  • Odor removal and deodorizing of rooms and vehicles
  • Filtered air machines and air quality steps after the main work is done
  • Removal of soaked carpet, padding, drywall and other porous materials
  • Fingerprint powder, tear gas and chemical residue removal
  • Cleanup of surrounding areas the fluids may have reached
