What human feces & urine cleanup covers:
The caller explains where the waste is and how long it has been there. This shapes the plan and the gear.
Plastic sheeting and sealed doorways keep contamination from being carried into clean rooms on shoes or tools.
Contaminated materials come out first. Surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, and odor is treated at its source.
The crew inspects each affected area, hauls away the waste and can provide notes for insurance claims.
Most human feces & urine cleanup jobs in Franklin, OH cost between $400 and $1,500, based on published cost guides.
Repairs to flooring or drywall after removal are usually separate from the cleanup itself, so ask what the quote covers.
| Type of job | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Human waste cleanup average | $400 - $1,500 |
These ranges come from published cost guides (Yelp Costs) and are not a quote for Franklin. Price drivers include amount of waste, whether it soaked into flooring or furniture, odor treatment, waste disposal. For a real number, call (877) 812-4220.
Relatives or an estate sometimes cover the cost. Free help exists in some places for people with low incomes, and a local social services office may know of it. Ask the cleanup team about payment plans too.
Put on disposable gloves and eye protection, lift the waste with disposable towels and bag it. Then clean the area and disinfect it with an EPA-registered product by the label. Soaked porous materials usually have to be removed.
Urine soaks into padding, subfloor and mattress layers, and bacteria keep releasing odor from there. Surface cleaning does not reach it. Removing the soaked materials is usually what ends the smell.
There is no safe rule for how long. Germs in waste can remain on surfaces and in dust after the waste has dried. That is why aged waste is still cleaned and disinfected with protection.
Wash the wound with soap and clean water right away and contact a doctor. Bacteria in feces can cause infection. This is general information, not medical advice, so do not wait if the area looks red, swollen or painful.
Strong fumes can cause headaches, nausea and irritation, especially in a closed room. Long-term exposure in a heavily contaminated home is a health concern. Leave the room, ventilate it and have a cleanup team remove the source.
Calls are answered 24/7, and the job is planned on the call.
