12B Clean offers immediate assistance with the toughest cleaning jobs, anywhere in the Netherlands. Disaster cleanup is our most specialized service: a team that’s on call 24/7 to clean up the scene of a trauma, a crime, or a serious biohazard situation. We restore the site to a clean and accessible condition, with respect for those affected and their loved ones.
Our people are seasoned by real-world experience. They can handle extreme situations, carry out their work calmly, and support the bereaved. A crime scene is an emotionally charged environment, where evidence often points to a tragedy. It’s up to our team to change that within a few hours.
With the right people, equipment, and resources, such a location can often be restored to its normal state within two to three hours. Everyone on the team is educated and trained in the field for this demanding work, and learns to use equipment and resources specifically designed for disaster cleanup.
Disaster cleanup is about more than just cleaning. Our team members work with respect and compassion for those affected and with consideration for their loved ones. They are also there to offer support at a time when it is needed most. We arrive in plain clothes and unmarked vehicles so that those around us are not aware of our presence.
At 12B Clean, our emergency response team is on standby 24/7, all year round. This specially trained Crime Scene Clean Team carries out emotionally and physically demanding cleanup work. The team members are seasoned professionals with extensive hands-on experience and are trained to handle traumatic events and biohazards professionally, anywhere in the Netherlands. In addition, they have specially developed equipment and industrial cleaning agents at their disposal, which they use to quickly restore the site of the incident to a clean and accessible state—literally as if nothing had happened.
Trauma and biohazard cleanup is at the heart of our emergency response work. It involves the systematic clearing, cleanup, cleaning, and disinfection of a space where an accident, a suicide, or a crime has occurred. This specialty also covers cases of natural death that are not discovered until some time has passed. Our trauma cleanup is carried out according to a set protocol and using the appropriate protective equipment.
Cleaning up a crime scene requires professionals who can set their emotions aside and follow a set step-by-step plan. The sooner the scene is restored to normal, the better it is for the bereaved and the surrounding community. A swift, appropriate response also prevents worse consequences: traces left behind and the odor of a decomposing body attract pests and pose a health risk.
Is it a special but less demanding job, such as water damage, cleanup, hoarding, or pest control? Then call on our specialized cleaning services. Not sure what kind of help you need? Give us a call—we’ll work with you to find the right solution.
We offer high-quality services for all types of cleaning tasks—from the basics to the most demanding jobs, and everything in between.
The odor of a decomposing body is often unbearable for those around it. Removing the body is the first step, but that doesn’t solve the problem. Eliminating the odor of a decomposing body requires addressing the source: the odor seeps into walls, floors, and furniture and does not go away on its own. Our specialists completely eliminate the odor of a decomposing body—not just temporarily.
It is not uncommon for a deceased person to be found only after days, weeks, or sometimes months have passed. In such cases, the body is already in an advanced state of decomposition. Cleaning up after a death is unexpected and occurs at a difficult time. Cleaning up after a suicide requires the same care and discretion. Our staff takes on this task with respect, so that the bereaved are not burdened with it themselves.
In an emergency, every minute counts. No cleaning job is too big for us.
