No. This page explains how meth lab cleanup works. It is not medical, legal or insurance advice. For symptoms, contact a doctor or Poison Control, and for legal questions, ask an attorney or the local health department.
Often not. In many cases the person who calls does not need to be on site. The team may need access, keys and a point of contact. Ask how that can be arranged, especially if you are out of town or the property is vacant.
It often takes several days to more than a week, plus time for lab results. Testing happens before and after the work. If an area does not pass, it is cleaned and tested again. A local team can give a realistic schedule once it has seen the property.
Only after law enforcement releases the property. Investigators handle evidence and any dangerous chemicals first. Once the site is released, you can book testing and cleanup as the owner. Ask the agency when the release happens.
Rules for drug lab cleanup vary by state, county and city. The local health department or the property owner's attorney can confirm what testing and clearance apply where you live. A cleanup team can explain its own process and what records you get.
Reported effects include headaches, nausea, coughing, throat and eye irritation and skin problems. Children and pets are closest to floors and furniture. Anyone who feels ill should see a doctor or call Poison Control and mention the property.
