Thousand Oaks may feel safe, but trauma doesn’t respect zip codes. When tragedy strikes, violent crime, suicide, or unattended death, what’s left behind isn’t just emotional wreckage. It’s regulated waste, airborne risk, and legal responsibility.
Total Restoration responds with certified trauma remediation in Thousand Oaks. Fast, quiet, and thorough.
We don’t show up in branded trucks. We don’t leave behind stains or questions. And we don’t stop until your home, rental, or business is safe again.
From Lynn Ranch to Oakbrook, we’ve handled trauma behind gated entries, in corporate lots, and within apartment corridors. No drama. Just safe, documented, code-compliant cleanup.
Thousand Oaks presents unique challenges for trauma cleanup:
Biohazards are rarely visible. Blood, tissue, and aerosolized pathogens embed in construction materials, HVAC systems, and framing. And in a city where reputation matters, discretion isn’t optional.
Total Restoration shuts down airflow, isolates the scene, removes damaged materials, sanitizes the entire affected zone, and verifies safety, fast and thorough.
Cleanup ranges from $2,500 to $6,000+, depending on scene size and how far contamination spread. We provide detailed estimates before starting.
Yes, if it’s documented properly. We provide time-stamped evidence, lab results, and disposal logs that support your claim and maximize payout.
No. It’s illegal in many cases and unsafe in all. Biohazards penetrate deep. DIY attempts often result in spread or denied insurance.
Yes — if it’s contaminated beyond salvage. Everything is removed per hazardous waste regulations, and salvageable areas are cleaned and sealed.
We dispatch in under 90 minutes. All trauma calls are treated as top priority.
Yes. OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen certified, IICRC trauma certified, and field-tested on hundreds of real California cases.
Yes. Our HEPA and hydroxyl systems eliminate all trace odor. If needed, we clean ducts and seal air returns.
We provide ATP test results, and third-party clearance is available. You’ll have hard proof for insurance or legal purposes.
Yes. Shut down HVAC to prevent contamination spread through ducts.
The coroner or medical examiner handles that. We begin work once the scene is officially released.
What makes trauma cleanup dangerous is what you can’t see. Pathogens spread into cracks, soak through flooring, and linger in air vents.
In Thousand Oaks, cleanup requires precision, not guesswork:
We isolate, disinfect, extract, test, and document. Our work passes inspections, clears liability, and protects everyone entering after us.
Posted on Marge MosleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was sound asleep when a stolen car driven by teens crashed through my back fence in the middle of the night. I was totally unprepared for what I needed to do next so I called Total Restoration, which turned out to be the best move that I could have made. I highly recommend them should you have a situation that requires an Emergency Service company.They truly are a 24/7 company and were willing to come out during the middle of the night to perform an emergency board up. The (crew consisting of 1 Supervisor and an additional employee) arrived within 40 minutes of my call. They immediately began to clean up and board up my property, from that initial contact on, Total Restoration helped to walk me though the process of dealing with my insurance co and restoring my property to its original condition. They always arrived to work when they said that they would and before they left for the day they always let me know what would happen next and when they would be back. Everyone I had contact with from the front office all the way down to the field personnel were friendly, polite and knowledgeable about what need to happen and when. It was a pleasure to work with them and they definitely took a lot of stress off me as they totally guided me through the entire rebuild process. They are a fantastic company to work with!Posted on Robyn VanTolTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These guys did smoke remediation on our house in the Palisades. They did a great job walking us through the process and were very fast in getting us a quote and starting the job. Very appreciative of them.Posted on Alan ETrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely a great company to work with. Excellent work Excellent staff Very professionalPosted on Holly HolderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our experience working with Total Restoration to reconstruct our kitchen after water damage leak was honestly the best service we could have asked for. From the moment we met with Blake who did our estimate and walked me through every single question I had and really worked with us and our insurance agent. Jeff was our project manager and he was not only very personable & great to work with, he worked tirelessly to get us back in our home before Christmas. Not only that but we worked our budget to get us all that we needed and more to get our house back to a home. Thank you to the entire team!! Our home restoration would not have been as smooth with the company our insurance recommended I know that.Posted on Randy J Reyes JrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great company and very professional. Chris is very knowledgeable and experienced. They take on small and big jobs, if your looking for someone this team is the one to hire.Posted on Sally Ponce-O'RourkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Total Restoration whether you have a small job (like in our bathroom) or a challenging one like with our condominium. First, they had to find the window leaks and because it is a 3 story building, had to erect scaffolding on the outside of the condo. They replaced drywall and surprisingly did an incredible job matching the old paint on the interior walls. Jeff Wilson and his team were professional and at the same time approachable. Our daughter & fiancé live in the condo in a different city than where we live. Jeff kept us informed (including pictures] every step of the way which alleviated any concerns we might have had. Also, being my husband is in the construction business, we knew the cost was reasonable and the results were amazing. Guarantee, Total Restoration will be the first & only company we will call when we need a job done right!Load more

Crime and trauma scenes in Thousand Oaks bring challenges different from coastal or rural areas. In hillside neighborhoods, bodily fluids can seep through multiple levels, making containment complex. The city’s hot, dry summers accelerate decomposition, spreading odor and pathogens faster through flooring, drywall, and air ducts. Older homes with porous building materials like hardwood or plaster make deep penetration more likely. In busy corridors near the 101 and commercial hubs, incidents in offices or industrial spaces require strict OSHA compliance and discreet response.
Our Thousand Oaks–specific protocols include:
These measures are adapted to Thousand Oaks’ terrain, housing profile, and climate, deep dive ensuring crime scenes are remediated safely, legally, and with full respect for those affected.
In Thousand Oaks, summer heat and hillside layouts make fluids and odors spread faster than most people expect. By avoiding DIY cleanup and following these steps, you protect health, preserve insurance coverage, and ensure the scene is managed with compliance and care.
Insurers look for any excuse to deny or reduce payout. We make sure that doesn’t happen.
We communicate with your adjuster directly and file supplementals when needed. You won’t fight alone, and you won’t get lowballed.
Every hour that passes allows deeper contamination and weaker insurance claims. Don’t delay.
Call (805) 410-4999 now. Our Thousand Oaks crew will be on-site within 90 minutes, fully equipped, fully certified, and fully discreet.
