Renters make up about 45% of households in Texarkana, so landlords often order decontamination between tenants. Older housing is common in Texarkana, around 52% built before 1980, and porous materials there often need removal, not just disinfection.
A typical biohazard decontamination job includes:
- Disinfection of hard surfaces with EPA-registered products and the full labeled contact time
- Cleaning of equipment, tools and furniture that can be safely kept and reused
- Disinfection of touch points such as door handles, switches, rails and counters
- Detailed cleaning of floors, walls, ceilings and fixtures before any disinfectant is applied
- Containment barriers that keep clean rooms separate from the work area

What Texarkana Property Owners Ask About Decontamination
Will the neighbors know?
Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team if discretion matters, and it will plan around that.
Do I need to be home during the work?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call.
Why does cleaning come before disinfecting?
Disinfectant does not work well on dirty surfaces, because residue can shield germs from the product. Crews remove visible material, clean every surface with detergent and then apply disinfectant for the contact time on its label. Skipping the cleaning step is a common reason a job fails.
What is the difference between biohazard cleanup and decontamination?
Cleanup removes blood, bodily fluids and other material from a scene. Decontamination makes the cleaned surfaces and the space safe again through cleaning and disinfecting. Most jobs include both, and the crew can explain how it treats each.
Is it safe to stay in the house during decontamination?
Usually it is better not to. The affected area is sealed off, products are in use and the air is being managed. Ask the crew whether other parts of the house can stay in use.
Can a car or truck be decontaminated?
Yes. Crews remove soiled mats, seat covers and cushions, clean the cabin and disinfect seats, belts, door pulls and vents. Fleet managers and rideshare drivers often call after a medical event or a mess that cannot wait.
