Infectious Disease Decontamination
HazRestore provides infectious disease decontamination across the UK, 24 hours a day, discreetly and to a clinical standard, with every job fully insured and all hazardous waste removed under licence.
What is infectious disease decontamination?
Infectious disease decontamination is the professional cleaning and disinfection of a property to destroy pathogens after an infectious outbreak, using fogging and touch-point disinfection across surfaces and in the air. HazRestore provides specialist decontamination services more widely too, decontaminating after biohazard spills, trauma incidents and unattended deaths, so a single team of decontamination specialists covers infection, biohazard and after-death decontamination to one clinical standard.
Fogging and touch-point disinfection after an infectious outbreak, from a single dwelling to a whole facility. It is part of HazRestore's biohazard services, carried out by trained, DBS-checked technicians to a clinical standard.
When do you need infectious disease decontamination?
Decontamination services are needed after a confirmed or suspected infectious outbreak, and more widely wherever a property must be made biologically safe again, after a biohazard spill, a trauma incident or an unattended death. HazRestore attends as decontamination specialists for homes, workplaces, vehicles and public facilities, making the environment safe to reoccupy.
Whether you are a family member, a landlord, a letting agent, a business or a public body, HazRestore attends discreetly, makes the property safe again, and can deal with insurers on your behalf.
What does HazRestore's infectious disease decontamination process involve?
HazRestore follows a four-stage process for infectious disease decontamination, from a single call through to verified safe reuse, containing the hazard, decontaminating the area, and removing all waste under licence.

How much does infectious disease decontamination cost?
Infectious Disease Decontamination typically costs £400 to £2,000. This is an indicative range to confirm at survey, not a fixed price, because the cost depends on the size of the affected area, the level of contamination, access and the volume of waste.
Many of these jobs are covered by household or commercial insurance. HazRestore can speak to your insurer and, in most cases, bill the claim directly so you are not left out of pocket.
