How Homeowners' Insurance Covers Biohazard Cleanup in Michigan

One of the most common questions we hear from Oakland County families is: "How much is this going to cost?"

In most cases, the answer is: nothing.

Homeowners' and renters' insurance in Michigan typically covers professional biohazard remediation — including crime scene cleanup, suicide cleanup, trauma remediation, sewage backup, decomposition cleanup, and mold remediation. Most clients pay $0 out of pocket.


What Insurance Typically Covers

| Situation | Typically Covered? | |---|---| | Crime scene cleanup | Yes | | Suicide or trauma cleanup | Yes | | Unattended death / decomposition | Yes | | Sewage backup remediation | Yes | | Mold from covered water event | Yes | | Hoarding cleanup | Varies by policy |

Coverage depends on your specific policy. 911 Bio Clean reviews your coverage before beginning work and advises you on what to expect.
