Hoarding Cleanup
Dealing with extreme clutter seems like an impossible task. Where do I start? How do I remove everything? How do I ensure that it’s sanitary? SERVPRO can provide the answers, expertise, and resources to bring your property back to a sanitary and habitable space.
Rodent Infestation
No one likes sharing their space with unsanitary intruders. They eat your wires and ductwork, urinate and defecate in your attics and walls, and cause real anxiety. We will thoroughly disinfect and clean your home or business to “make it like it never even happened.”
Illicit Substances
The production and use of illegal drugs can result in exposure to volatile and harmful chemicals. Our professionals follow federal and state guidelines when cleaning and decontaminating the affected areas of your home or business.
Chemicals and Residues
Our technicians specialize in the safe, thorough removal of chemical residues left behind after emergencies, law enforcement activity, or industrial accidents. We can handle a wide range of hazardous materials and contamination scenarios, such as:
- Fingerprint powder
- Tear gas
- Pepper spray
- Fire extinguishers
SERVPRO follows all OSHA and EPA guidelines to make sure all chemical contaminants are safely removed, leaving your space clean, compliant, and habitable.
Squad Cars and Jail Cells
Keeping our first responders safe and healthy is a top priority. Contaminants and biohazards like:
- Blood
- Drug Residue
- Bodily Fluids
must be removed and the affected area decontaminated to ensure safety, compliance, and peace of mind.
Viruses & Pathogens
Through our Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned program, we offer a specialized viral pathogen deep cleaning service that ensures that you and your space are both healthy and clean. SERVPRO can assist with C diff, HIV-1, Norovirus, MRSA, and many other viruses and bacteria.
What To Do When You Have a Biohazard Emergency
The need for biohazard or hazmat cleaning usually comes with little or no warning. And it can be truly overwhelming.
Dealing with hazardous materials is best left to experienced, certified professionals. But if you find yourself in such a traumatic incident, here are a few important things to remember.
Call Emergency Personnel
Emergency services should be called in a life-threatening situation.
Do Not Attempt Any Cleaning Yourself
Cleaning of any kind could interfere with a possible investigation and expose you to harmful contaminated materials.
Stay Out Of The Area
Stay out of any affected areas. There may be potentially dangerous hazardous materials left behind.
Treat All Bodily Fluids As Contaminated
Do not touch or handle items that might be contaminated with extremely harmful bodily fluids. And always treat bodily fluids as if they’re contaminated.
Simplifying Insurance
We make insurance claims easier, with fewer headaches for you. We handle the details and coordinate any paperwork, so you can focus on moving forward.
We will thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance company throughout the process.
Your insurance provider trusts SERVPRO to respond quickly—we address biohazard issues swiftly to ensure the safety of all concerned, prevent further damage, control costs, and keep the insurance process moving smoothly.
What our
customers are saying
Everyone we’ve worked with here has been exceptionally helpful, answering all of our questions and getting to the bottom of the issue for us. Today’s service was thorough and the team lead walked me through everything that was done, letting me know the shape of the flooring, subfloor etc. and making recommendations for what to do next. We would work with them again anytime!
We had an excellent experience with Cesar and his team after we had surprising flooding in our basement. He explained everything well and was polite and smiling all the time. From the moment they arrived I felt at ease.
My sump pump broke and my basement flooded three days before leaving for vacation. I called ServPro and Walt was at my house within a couple hours to assess the damage. He was very professional and assured us that they could complete the clean up before we left for our trip, which they did! I’m very satisfied and highly recommend ServPro of Elgin.
SERVPRO did an excellent job when my upstairs neighbor had plumbing problems and caused major water damage to my laundry room ceiling and walls. They were very knowledgeable, accessible, prompt, and did great work. Their owner Patrick came out and was very upfront about what needed to be done and the process. He went above and beyond for me making sure I understood each process of mitigation and rebuild. Everyone I encountered from the mitigation team (TJ, Alex, and Cesar) to the rebuild team (Jaime, Cathryn, and Matias) were a pleasure to work with. The timeline they gave me was accurate and they worked with my insurance and made this stressful process much easier to handle. I would use them again and recommend to anyone needing water mitigation.
Cesar and his team (Stefan, Karla, and Naomi) were great. Made a very stressful situation less stressful, after a failed sump pump flooded the basement. Kept us apprised every step of the way. Thank you!
Our experience with Elgin Servpro was prompt, treated quickly and very clean upon finish.. highly recommend
Had some problems with billing . When Jami came on the job things came together.
Responded quickly to the potential issue with our buyers house inspection. They were very helpful in educating us on our options and evaluating the room in question. We appreciated their professionalism.
I had water damage from leaky pipes in two different parts of the house. The demolition crew was here the same day that I called the insurance company which was really important as it turned out. Tom was most helpful in dealing with the insurance company which took a huge weight off my shoulders. I could not have done it on my own. Also I was always kept in the loop as to what needed to be done and when it would be done. I was impressed by how hard the crew worked. Job well done! Thank you.
