Why Wade’s Restoration of California Is Cherry Valley’s Preferred Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup Company
Wade Ferris put his name on the truck in 2007, and he still answers his own phone. That’s not a marketing line. If you call at 2 a.m. from a property in the 92223 ZIP code, Wade is the one picking up. He’ll tell you what he can do, when he can be there, and what it will cost before you commit to anything. In Cherry Valley, neighbors talk, and a locally owned crew has to stand behind every job or they’ll hear about it at the market. We’ve built our reputation here one honest job at a time.
Cherry Valley homeowners have told us the same story again and again: a national chain quoted one price on the phone, then doubled it once a crew was standing in the living room. We do not work that way. Our estimates come with a written scope of work, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every biohazard and restoration contract. If it’s not done right, Wade makes it right. That’s the whole promise.
We’re IICRC-certified and RIA-affiliated, and the people Wade sends to Cherry Valley are background-checked and uniformed. You’ll know who is walking into your home. And we carry professional-grade containment and air-scrubbing equipment from Dri-Eaz so the work zone stays isolated from the rest of the house.
Our Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup Services in Cherry Valley
Our Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup team handles everything from small blood spills to full trauma scenes. Here’s what we do most often in Cherry Valley:
Crime Scene Cleanup
After law enforcement releases a scene, the responsibility for cleanup falls to the property owner. Blood, fingerprint dust, tear gas residue, and other biological material need to be removed with hospital-grade disinfectants and proper containment, not a mop and bucket from the garage. In Cherry Valley homes from the 1950s and 60s, porous wood subfloors and original plaster walls can absorb fluids deeper than you’d think, which means we often open small sections of wall or flooring to verify everything is actually clean.
Trauma & Unattended Death Cleanup
An unattended death is one of the hardest things a family can face. The physical cleanup is our job, and we handle it with discretion and speed. Biohazard fluids from decomposition can seep into subflooring, concrete, and wall cavities, especially in older Cherry Valley ranch homes with minimal vapor barriers. We remove affected materials, dry the area, disinfect every surface, and run HEPA air scrubbers until the air tests clean. No one should have to do this alone, and you don’t have to.
Hoarding Cleanup
Hoarding cleanup in Cherry Valley often happens on larger rural parcels where accumulation has gone on for decades. It is not just clutter; layers of decomposing organic material, rodent waste, and human biohazard can make the air inside unsafe. We work with families, not against them, sorting what matters, segregating waste, and restoring the home to a livable condition. Full PPE and proper waste disposal are standard on every hoarding job.
Blood & Bodily Fluid Cleanup
Bloodborne pathogens don’t disappear when the visible stain does. Salmonella, hepatitis, and other pathogens can survive on surfaces for days or weeks. In Cherry Valley, where homes took on smoke and ash from the Banning foothills fires, those biohazards can be layered on top of toxic particulate, which makes cleaning order critical. We handle the full sequence: exterior pressure-washing first, then interior containment, removal, and disinfection.
Infectious Disease Disinfection
After a confirmed illness in the home - COVID, MRSA, C. diff, or similar - a deep disinfection protects the people still living there. We use EPA-registered disinfectants and fogging where appropriate, with attention to the ceiling fans, door hardware, and vent registers that most cleaners miss. In Cherry Valley’s older homes, leaky ductwork means pathogens can circulate through rooms that were never exposed.
Tear Gas & Chemical Cleanup
Tear gas residue is a chemical, not just an odor. It bonds to walls, carpets, and ductwork, and if it’s not fully removed, the burning sensation and respiratory irritation come right back. We clean the surfaces, run air scrubbers, and replace filters throughout the home. This work shows up in Cherry Valley after law enforcement incidents, and we treat it as a full decontamination, not a quick wipe-down.

Trusted Brands We Service in Cherry Valley
We are brand-agnostic when it comes to equipment, but the gear we bring to Cherry Valley is professional-grade, not rental-store leftovers. We use Dri-Eaz air scrubbers and dehumidifiers, Phoenix fans on structural drying jobs, and HEPA-filtered negative-pressure machines to keep contaminated air out of your living space. Our IICRC certification and RIA affiliation mean the work is done to an actual standard, not just until it looks clean. We stock replacement filters, containment barriers, and disinfectant supplies on our trucks so we’re not making a supply run halfway through your job.
Common Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup Problems We See in Cherry Valley Homes
- Wind-driven ash and soot infiltration: The San Gorgonio Pass wind corridor pushes smoke and ash from the San Bernardino National Forest directly into attic vents and wall penetrations. Homes that never saw a flame still end up with toxic particulate in the air and on every horizontal surface, which has to be remediated before any other cleaning happens.
- Freeze-thaw pipe failures hidden in old walls: Cherry Valley sits at 2,600 to 2,800 feet, high enough for winter freeze-thaw cycles that are uncommon in the rest of the Inland Empire. Old copper supply lines in 1950s ranch homes crack behind walls, and the resulting sewage or gray-water contamination can sit unnoticed for weeks until odor or mold forces the issue.
- Hoarding layers on large rural parcels: Properties on acreage have the space to accumulate. When we’re called in, we’re often dealing with decades of material, including animal waste and decomposing organic debris, requiring full PPE and staged waste segregation before any trauma or odor work can start.
- Porous original materials holding biohazards: Unsealed hardwood floors, original plaster, and wood sheathing in Cherry Valley’s older homes absorb fluids far deeper than modern drywall and vinyl. Cutting corners here means odor and pathogens return in a few months, so we remove and replace affected sections rather than just cleaning the surface.
Pricing for Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup in Cherry Valley, CA
A basic blood or bodily fluid cleanup in a Cherry Valley bathroom or garage typically runs $1,500 to $3,000. A full trauma or unattended death cleanup in a ranch home off Highway 79, where we are removing flooring and drywall and running multiple air scrubbers, usually lands between $3,500 and $8,500. Hoarding cleanup on a large-parcel Cherry Valley property starts around $2,500 and can reach $10,000 or more depending on the volume and what’s buried in it. Infectious disease disinfection for a typical 1,500-square-foot home runs $800 to $2,200. What moves the number: how much building material is contaminated, how long the material has been sitting, whether exterior ash and soot are present, and how much containment is needed. Every estimate is written, free, and good before any work begins. Call (855) 915-0646 for an exact quote.

FAQs - Biohazard & Crime Scene Cleanup in Cherry Valley
Cherry Valley sits in the San Gorgonio Pass wind corridor, one of the most consistent high-wind channels in Southern California. When the Banning foothills or San Bernardino National Forest burn, those winds carry fine ash and smoke particulate for miles and force it through attic vents, gable openings, and any unsealed wall penetration. We regularly find heavy soot contamination inside Cherry Valley homes that never faced a flame. The fix is full HEPA remediation and exterior pressure-washing before interior biohazard work can safely begin. Call (855) 915-0646 to have us assess your place.
Yes. Bloodborne pathogens like hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV survive on surfaces long after visible blood has been wiped away, and a household cleaner does not kill them. In Cherry Valley homes with porous original flooring, fluids seep below the surface where they can stay infectious for days. Professional cleanup means hospital-grade disinfectants, proper contact times, and removal of materials that cannot be fully sanitized. We’ll test, not guess. Call (855) 915-0646 and Wade will walk you through what’s needed.
Cherry Valley’s 2,600-foot-plus elevation brings winter freeze-thaw cycles that are rare in lower Inland Empire cities. Water inside old copper supply lines expands when it freezes, and repeated cycles crack the pipes behind walls. The resulting slow leak can saturate wall cavities and flooring with gray water or sewage for weeks before anyone notices. That water carries bacteria and, in sewage cases, pathogens that require full removal and disinfection, not just drying. We see this most often in 1950s and 60s ranch homes with original plumbing.
Yes. Hoarding cleanup is a private service between us and the property owner. We do not call code enforcement, and we’re not there to judge or report anyone. Our focus is on making the home safe and livable again, working at the pace the family can handle. On Cherry Valley’s larger rural parcels, we often work in stages over multiple weeks, and the family decides what stays, what goes, and what gets documented for insurance or estate purposes. Call (855) 915-0646 and we’ll come out quietly.
It’s the wind and the housing stock. Cherry Valley’s pass winds create constant negative pressure on older homes, pulling outdoor air and whatever is in it through every crack, and the older ranch homes have leaky ductwork that spreads contaminants between rooms. A disinfection protocol that works in a tight 2005 tract home in Beaumont will not be enough for a 1958 ranch in Cherry Valley with original single-pane windows and unsealed venting. We’ve worked in both, and we plan for the house we’re standing in, not the one on a corporate checklist. Call (855) 915-0646 for an assessment.
