When a family faces the aftermath of a crime, an unattended death, or a biohazard incident, every minute of waiting can compound their trauma. Huuso Bio, a Plainfield, Illinois-based remediation company, has announced it is putting more trained, IICRC-certified technicians on the road across the Chicago area to ensure help arrives faster and without extra costs.
The company, which has expanded its roster to cover Chicago, Naperville, Joliet, Aurora, Elgin, Hoffman Estates, Lake Forest, and Highland Park, emphasizes that its local presence eliminates travel fees throughout the Chicagoland service area. Kevin Reifsteck, co-founder of Huuso Bio, stressed the importance of immediate, compassionate response. “Nobody plans for the day they need us,” he said. “When that phone rings, someone on the other end is hurting. They don’t need a call center reading a script, and they don’t need a truck coming from another state with a travel charge tacked on. They need a neighbor who knows exactly what to do.”
The company’s foundation is rooted in the experience of the Reifsteck brothers, who have spent decades in trauma and crime scene cleanup. Their protocols helped shape the ANSI/IICRC S540 Standard, a national benchmark for the industry. Every Huuso Bio technician undergoes training at the company’s own Huuso Bio Academy, which includes the “I Care” program—designed to teach technicians how to communicate with families during traumatic events, not just how to disinfect a room.
This focus on both technical expertise and human empathy is critical, as the work involves blood cleanup, unattended death cleanup, suicide and homicide cleanup, hoarding, and infectious disease disinfection, all performed to OSHA, CDC, EPA, and Illinois Department of Public Health requirements. But as Reifsteck explains, it’s also about sitting with a widow at the kitchen table and explaining, in plain English, what happens next.
Beyond faster response, Huuso Bio’s process is designed to take the entire burden off the customer. A single phone call connects them with a live team available 24/7/365. The company works directly with homeowners and property insurance carriers, so in most cases customers pay nothing out of pocket at the time of service. They also provide full documentation, Proof of Disinfection, and a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee, while discreet crews protect the family’s privacy from arrival to final walkthrough.

The expansion comes as the company continues to address a pressing need: reducing response times for families in crisis. With crews living and working throughout the region, dispatch starts on the first call, ensuring help is coming from down the road, not across the state. This local approach, combined with the company’s commitment to insurance coordination and compassionate care, underscores its mission to support families on the hardest day of their lives.
