 Do you ever wonder what happens when the police leave? Crime scene cleaners are private companies that handle the cleanup after the police are gone. Spalling Decon is one of the nation's largest cleanup companies handling the aftermath of homicides, suicides, decompositions, hoarding, and much more. These are our stories. We are at our cop job. We haven't had a day off in like three weeks. We are both exhausted. This house is... Falling apart. ...special. Yes, the entire ceiling is caving in. He must have been packing a wound or something because there is a large amount of... Like, is that paper towels? I think it's a mixture of napkins, paper towels, napkins, and teepee. And they're all bloody and they're on the floor in the living room. This is pretty large because it looks like he was sitting here for a while and it ran through the grout line on the tile. Oh, yeah. Golden goose. Can I have the golden goose, please? We are at our cop job. We haven't had a day off in like three weeks. We are both exhausted between coronavirus and... Decomps. Decomps and coronavirus. And mold. And mold and decomps. And water jobs. We're exhausted. I'm exhausted. This house is... Falling apart. ...special. Yes, the entire ceiling is caving in. We must have been packing a wound or something because there is a large amount of... Like, is that paper towels? I think it's a mixture of paper towels, napkins, and teepee. And they're all bloody and they're on the floor in the living room. This is pretty large because it looks like he was sitting here for a while and it ran through the grout line on the tile. So we're removing the grout, the tile, and one of... One or two walls. It's that true classic case of pictures don't do it justice. So when we saw the pictures after the bid was done, we were like, that's not bad. We're gonna handle that. Now I'm wishing I was in Miami doing a corona virus job because... Now I'm wishing I was on a beach with a margarita in my hand. And we actually put our two-week notice in at the same time. No, I'm not giving a two-week notice. I quit. Oh. Right now, I'm exhausted. I quit. So stay tuned for this nightmare. It's gone. It's like your hair. It's gone. It's gone like your hair. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. Hold on. Hold on. Everybody is working, so I'm stuck working with this person. Oh, I hate you. First impressions are horrible. Terrifying. Absolutely horrific. That's my suit. Don't even touch it. We're the same size, huh? I'm just trying to... before I started like diving into this two-week bio just trying to pick up all the shit that's around and included in it the guy was obviously not well look guys we got Maggie they're so friendly you pet them you love them my glasses kept fogging up so I had to take my glasses off so I'm just kind of trying to readjust and figure out exactly where I need to start now that I've got the majority of the stuff like cleaned up and out of the way he definitely went into the wall all the way down my fear is because he followed the grow out line my fear is that he actually went into the other room so we have the kitchen and we have the bathroom so this wall this entire wall is gonna structurally the house is not sound so trying to figure out the least aggressive way to get the job done right since half of the roof or excuse me half of the ceiling is already missing so I'm gonna start with the tile it followed the grout really really well and so I'm actually wondering if the grout is sealed and it didn't go in and underneath the grout except up against the wall that would be a saving grace even though all of the tile has to come out we don't know any backstory on this I know that we've been we've been talking with the ex-wife she's actually devastated at the way he lived so she didn't even want to enter the house everything here is supposed to be left to the daughter but due to the condition of the house they're actually just demolishing it so we're here solely to just remove bio normally we try to make it look super pretty and you know easy for family and and things like that to walk in on we're gonna do the best we can today but it's kind of hard to put lipstick on a pig when the ceiling is caving in and there's mold growth throughout it's just kind of one of those really difficult situations construction crews won't come in here because of the amount of bio that's in here so we have to at least get the biohazard removed before we can turn around and demolish this on a serious note I really do love my job just depends on the circumstance on how much the skin we have some hair tile chipper to work so diving right in and I'm tired of wasting time fucking with equipment that's not working properly so just gonna dive right in and get it some some health issues here I've already scooted it around looking for needles and stuff so I mean we're we're in the clear on that luckily this is all dry making mud doubt it's like 95 degrees right now when I'm done here I'm actually just gonna discard the burn tip over here that's going sweet I'm wiping up the sweeping up the dry blood it's actually hard to breathe today humidity is up 95 degrees this is when we lose most of our weight actually so today is what could go wrong has gone wrong I had to throw this truck together most everything was on here but there are certain things that I had stocked on the other van that the other guys had taken even though they weren't supposed to it's par for the course miscommunications so I'm just trying to piecemeal stuff together today you're so stupid hey I need you to work a little harder Laura's in there working by yourself because I came out here to get a dustpan which is gone off this truck because it's fucked up we have like six others on the other truck so I'm just gonna use a shovel we're improvising today so oh yeah and our tile chipper decided not to work on us so we're doing it all by hand well then I got the shovel I got the flat shovel for that oh thanks for joining while I'm working sweating Kyle is taking a union break playing with themselves but you know the A team is here so not too worried about it this is the baseboard it's full of blood so from what I can tell the person died right here in the kitchen and then decompose for a couple weeks and the fluids ran down the grout we've lifted up all the tile and the subfloor appears to be in good condition but we are going to take out this wall because you can see the body fluids have whipped up the wall so we're going to remove it probably a 24 inch flood cut that's not even dry mold oh my fuck it's mold the reason that we're doing it this way is because they're going to demolish the house when we're done so we don't have to be careful with the cut or anything best flood cut I've ever done 1925 fall they want their heater back we're gonna give it back to them this Florida I don't know why that's here I don't get it this is a wallpaper this is behind the wallpaper look at the wiring on that video because the house is being demoed and this didn't go into the into the ground line I'm just doing a service cleaning with our part a it's the stuff that eats up any of the biohazards that are pulling a dexter here somehow that walks you away the other people like you who actually enjoy doing this like who so in a couple locations it leads through into the subfloor which is Toronto I applied the chemical to lift it up and I'm letting it sit I just brush it in a little bit same thing Kyle's doing right there so hopefully we'll be able to lift it up pretty easily and then disinfect the floor feeling this in we're trying a new sealant spray can rather than because of the type of job this is rather than our paint because we're not feeling the whole floor so I'm doing a really nice thick coat and over the next two days since nobody's living here nobody's gonna come in here for the next two or three days this will give time to dry these things are amazing so they're demolishing the house so unfortunately we're just dressing up the pig right now the customers wants to demolish the house when we're done so normally we would have removed the base plate because it's contaminated but what we did was we disinfected it and then we sealed it which is kind of a temporary fix and then she's going to demolish the house anyway so there was no real need to you know spend a lot of hours here removing something that's going to end up being demolished anyway so we're gonna we're almost done here we're going to go around and disinfect one last time I'd imagine they want to come in here and just get some personal effects before they actually destroy everything so we're almost done it's extremely hot outside and high humidity so we're having to take more breaks than usual and of course we're both exhausted so it's been a long day it's terrifying thanks for watching guys don't forget to like share subscribe and ring that bell to be notified of the next episode for more information visit any of our locations that's it
