Restoring Safety and Peace of Mind After a Tragedy
The recent domestic violence shooting in Alexandria, Virginia, where a barricaded situation at a Canterbury Square apartment resulted in two deaths, highlights the unpredictable nature of violence. When the police tape is taken down, families, property managers, and maintenance workers are left with an overwhelming physical burden. Our team at the T.A.C.T. PWC location was called to help safely handle this specific environment, ensuring the community can begin to heal.
The Hidden Hazards of Crime Scenes
In the aftermath of the tragic incident off Duke Street, the residential property was left heavily contaminated with bloodborne pathogens and microscopic hazards.

As a certified biohazard cleanup company, our highly trained technicians utilize hospital-grade disinfectants and specialized equipment to completely eradicate unseen dangers and prevent cross-contamination.
