Why Floodline Restoration Co. of Minneapolis Is Hudson’s Preferred Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup Company
Hudson homeowners call us because we show up when we say we will, in uniform, with background-checked technicians certified to IICRC standards. We don’t subcontract. The same Floodline crew that arrives for the initial assessment handles the containment, the removal, the disinfection, and the final verification. You’re not getting handed off to an unknown third party.
Our response time to Hudson is fast because our dispatch board coordinates crews locally from the Minneapolis-St Paul metro office, and our drivers know the shortest routes across the river on I-94 and Highway 35. When a family on Vine Street calls at 2 a.m. after an unattended death, a live dispatcher picks up, not voicemail. A certified crew is on the road within the hour.
The 90-Day Done Right Promise, written into every Hudson job, means if something isn’t done right, we make it right. No arguing, no paperwork battles. That’s the Keystone Standard, and it applies to every biohazard cleanup we perform in Hudson.
Our Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup Services in Hudson
Crime Scene Cleanup
Crime scene cleanup in Hudson requires immediate containment, because blood and bodily fluids wick into subflooring, drywall, and trim within hours. Our technicians remove all affected materials, disinfect with hospital-grade agents, and verify clearance with ATP testing before we leave. We coordinate directly with law enforcement and property owners so the family isn’t left managing the aftermath alone.
Trauma & Unattended Death Cleanup
When a death goes undiscovered in a Hudson home, decomposition fluids penetrate flooring, subfloor, and often the joist bays beneath. We’ve worked scenes in 1920s balloon-frame houses on Second Street where blood seeped through original hardwood and settled into the framing below. Surface cleaning doesn’t fix that. We remove contaminated material down to the structural layer, treat the cavity, and restore the space to a safe, odor-free condition.
Hoarding Cleanup
Hoarding cleanup in Hudson’s 1990s split-levels and ramblers often means removing years of accumulated debris while preserving the items that matter to the family. Our crews are trained to work with compassion, but also with the thoroughness the job demands: OSB subfloors in those decades-old homes trap odors and pathogens, and we don’t cut corners on disinfection. We sort, remove, clean, and disinfect, with dumpster capacity sized to the volume.
Blood & Bodily Fluid Cleanup
Blood cleanup in Hudson is a health and safety job, not a janitorial one. Bloodborne pathogens including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV can survive on surfaces for days. In older Hudson homes, blood that reaches horsehair plaster or balloon-frame cavities leaves hidden reservoirs that reek and attract insects months later if not properly removed. We cut out contamination at the source, not just the visible stain.
Infectious Disease Disinfection
Infectious disease disinfection in Hudson homes and businesses requires EPA-registered disinfectants applied with proper dwell times and coverage. Whether it’s MRSA, C. diff, norovirus, or respiratory pathogens, our IICRC-certified technicians follow CDC protocols and document the process. We serve Hudson’s schools, medical offices, and homes throughout 54016.
Tear Gas & Chemical Cleanup
Tear gas residue in a confined Hudson space is not a DIY job. Generic household cleaners can reactivate the irritant compounds, making the space worse, not better. Chemical neutralization requires certified techniques and proper ventilation. We handle tear gas and chemical cleanup for law enforcement incidents, business disputes, and residential situations across Hudson and the St. Croix Valley.

Trusted Brands We Service in Hudson
Our Hudson biohazard work relies on professional-grade equipment from Injectidry for negative-air containment, XPOWER air movers for ventilation and drying during disinfection, and B-Air filtration units that scrub contaminated air during and after removal. We stock replacement filters and HEPA media locally so Hudson jobs don’t stall waiting on parts. When a riverside basement on First Street needs flood-sewage containment and a 1920s house near Lake Mallalieu needs cavity drying after blood removal, we have the right equipment on the truck, not back at a warehouse across the metro.
Common Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup Problems We See in Hudson Homes
- Floodwater sewage contamination in riverside basements. Hudson’s lower downtown and river-adjacent homes sit in the St. Croix floodplain, so basements in those blocks fill with sewage-tainted water during spring melt and heavy rain. Treating that as a simple water loss spreads pathogens through the house.
- Blood wicking into balloon-frame cavities. Late-19th and early-20th century homes near downtown Hudson and along Second Street use balloon framing with continuous wall cavities. Blood and fluids travel vertically inside those cavities, so surface-only cleaning leaves contamination hidden behind plaster.
- Freeze-thaw cracking letting contaminated groundwater back in. Hudson’s hard continental winters and the river valley’s freeze-thaw cycling crack basement walls. A biohazard cleanup is pointless if contaminated groundwater seeps back through the same crack a month later.
- OSB subfloor odor trapping in 1990s homes. The heavy suburban build-out of the 1990s and 2000s left Hudson with thousands of homes using OSB sheathing and engineered lumber. Those materials trap decomposition odors deep in the wood fibers, and surface treatments won’t remove them.

Floodline bills your insurance carrier directly when coverage applies, and every Hudson estimate is free. Call (888) 861-1852 for a written scope before any work starts.

FAQs - Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup in Hudson
No special Hudson-specific permit is required for biohazard cleanup on private property, but Wisconsin biohazard disposal rules do apply, and riverside properties in the St. Croix floodplain often fall under additional DNR oversight when floodwater contamination is involved. Floodline handles all required reporting and disposal documentation so you don’t have to navigate it alone. Call (888) 861-1852 and we’ll explain exactly what applies to your property.
Sewage-tainted floodwater is treated as a biohazard, not a water loss. We extract the water, remove contaminated porous materials, disinfect all remaining surfaces with EPA-registered agents, and document every step for your insurance carrier. Hudson’s lower downtown basements often have old masonry walls that require extra drying and antimicrobial treatment after sewage contact. Call (888) 861-1852 for a complete scope and timeline.
It depends on how deep the blood penetrated. Surface blood on sealed plaster can often be disinfected in place, but blood that soaked into horsehair plaster or the lath behind it usually requires selective removal of the affected section, followed by treatment of the framing cavity and patching with compatible materials. We inspect with moisture meters and visual assessment before recommending removal. Call (888) 861-1852 and we’ll assess your specific situation.
Our typical response time to Birkmose Park and all Hudson neighborhoods is 4 to 6 hours from your call, with a live dispatcher taking the call 24/7 and a certified crew dispatched immediately. Unattended death scenes require prompt containment to prevent odor and contamination spread, so speed matters. Call (888) 861-1852 and we’ll give you an exact arrival window.
Yes, we bring dumpster capacity sized to the job, including the attached garages and lower-level storage areas common in Hudson’s 1990s split-levels and ramblers. Our crews sort through the debris with you, identify items to preserve, and remove the rest in coordinated loads. We disinfect the OSB subfloors and structural surfaces afterward. Call (888) 861-1852 for a free walkthrough and written estimate.
