  • Drug/meth lab cleanup
  • Hoarding and animal infestation cleanup, including odor and rubbish removal
  • Airborne pathogen and blood cleanup
  • Emergency vehicle, facility and equipment cleanup
  • Prison cell cleanup

The professionals at Rainbow Restoration of Boerne understand these situations are sensitive and often emotional. They are specifically trained to provide professional, respectful services, no matter what type of scene they are dealing with.

Trauma Scene Clean Up

  • There are various regulations on the local, state and federal levels governing trauma scene cleanup. The federal organizations that establish these regulations include the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Each state has its own sets of rules established and enforced by that state's Department of Natural Resources or Health Department.

    Not just anyone can complete trauma scene cleanup. There are strict regulations for collecting, decontaminating and disposing of biohazard materials. Crime scene cleanup professionals are trained about the dangers of trauma scene cleanup, how to use cleaning and personal protection equipment properly, and what regulations must be met at each crime scene cleanup.

Restoration Services Following Cleanup


When you call Rainbow Restoration of Boerne, you can expect us to arrive in a timely manner and bring all required personal protection equipment, cleaning products and disposal supplies. During the scene cleanup, our team will promptly and professionally remove all aspects of the scene that could lead to an unhealthy or hazardous environment. The goal is to return the scene to the same condition it was in before the event occurred.

The final step in many cleanup situations is disposal, when all evidence of the event is removed and disposed of properly. You may not require any further services beyond this.

However, in some instances, restoration work is needed to bring the affected area back to its pre-event condition. Restoration services following cleanup may include:

  • Repairing or replacing drywall, subfloor and other structural components
  • Repainting damaged walls
  • Replacing flooring
  • Restoring cabinets and countertops
  • Replacing windows
  • Checking plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems for full functionality
