Usually not. Crews arrive in unmarked vehicles, work quietly and keep details private. Tell the team at the start if discretion matters, and it will plan the work around that.
Soaked carpet, padding and mattresses are usually removed and sealed for disposal. Germs and odors sink deep, and disinfectant cannot reach them all. Hard surfaces can usually be cleaned and kept.
Yes. Dried blood can still carry bloodborne pathogens, and scraping or sweeping it can put particles in the air. Leave it alone, keep people away and have a cleanup team treat it with protective gear.
A small spill on a hard floor can take a few hours. Larger scenes, soaked carpet and subfloor, or heavy odor take longer. The crew can give a better timeline after seeing the site.
It depends on the cause and the property. Insurance is the first place to look. Without it, the owner, the estate or the family usually pays, and in a rental the lease and local law decide. Some cleanup teams offer payment plans.
