Biohazard cleanup in Berry Hill, Tennessee
Berry Hill is a small city of under one square mile, surrounded by Nashville just south of downtown and next to 100 Oaks. Since 1970, when Buzz Cason turned two houses into a recording studio, it has been a center of Nashville's music business, sometimes called Music Hill.

Cleanup in Berry Hill: what shapes the work
Berry Hill kept its city status through the 1963 Nashville-Davidson consolidation and has its own police and public works departments. Some of its studios and offices still occupy converted houses.
Converted homes have residential construction with commercial use: wood floors, small rooms, and soundproofing materials such as acoustic panels and foam that absorb fluids and odor. Those soft materials usually have to be removed, while sealed hard surfaces can often be cleaned.
