For most owners, yes. Blood and body fluids carry health risks, odor can linger for months, and mistakes can leave hidden contamination. Professionals remove the hazard and give the owner records that insurers accept.

Usually not. Many owners set up access by phone, with a key holder or property manager. Tell the team who has the keys and whether the building must stay open around the work.
Do police clean up crime scenes?
No. Police collect evidence and then release the scene. Blood, bodily fluids and fingerprint powder stay behind. You, as the owner or manager, then book crime scene cleaning with a professional team.
