Our IICRC-certified technicians understand the complex emotional and health considerations involved in unattended death situations. We approach each case with the utmost sensitivity while delivering thorough, professional remediation services that restore affected properties to safe, habitable conditions.

Understanding Unattended Death Situations in Las Vegas

An unattended death occurs when someone passes away alone and is not discovered immediately. These situations can result from natural causes, accidents, or suicides, and are often discovered by family members, property managers, or neighbors. The longer a body remains undiscovered, the more extensive the biohazard contamination becomes.

According to Clark County data, approximately 500 unattended deaths occur annually in the Las Vegas area. In our desert climate, decomposition accelerates significantly, with a body discovered after just 72 hours having already entered advanced decomposition stages, creating severe biohazard conditions that require professional intervention.

Understanding Cleanup Costs

The cost of unattended death cleanup services varies based on several factors:

  1. Time since death - Longer periods result in more extensive contamination

  2. Affected area size - Larger areas require more labor and materials

  3. Type of surfaces affected - Porous materials like carpet and drywall often need replacement

  4. Structural damage - Extensive contamination may require structural repairs

  5. Odor severity - Advanced decomposition requires more intensive odor remediation

While costs typically range from $2,500 to $25,000, most homeowner's and property insurance policies cover these services. Clear Path Restoration provides free, no-obligation assessments and works directly with insurance companies to minimize your financial burden.
