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.

3.svg

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.

Gabriel and Emilio were great!

audrey craddock

Amazing staff! We had a fire in our home and the care they took with our home from start to finish was amazing.

Jeff Anderson

What an amazing experience for a rotten situation, with a pipe burst on New Years Eve, they came within the hour helped to pump it out and stop the water, helped me arrange a plumber, had me dried out and kept me current on what to expect and next steps. Though 2026 came in with a surprise it also demonstrated that there are individuals out there that can help you get back on your feet again. Thank you Drake.

Jamie Gaa

They were great! They arrived on time everyday and cleaned up when they left. Their work was of very high quality. I would highly recommend Vinny and his team m.

Meredith Baker

We had a small issue and Brian came over. He helped us and pointed us in the right direction on how to rectify the problem. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you Brian!

Todd Seiler

Servpro is a great local business with prompt response time. They gave us a great consultation and we continue to use them because we trust them as an expert.

Maggie Weber

I don't find myself doing this very often, but there are times that guilt would consume me if i didn't recognize performance that is so extraordinary on multiple levels. We were consumed with a water event that turned our recently renovated home upside down. Water goes wherever it wants and destroys everything it touches. The layers of responsiveness necessary to restore a home from beginning to end would test the fortitude of anyone unfortunate enough to experience it. Within fifteen minutes of discovery numerous people were responding to the initial phase of chaos. Fire personnel, HOA, and trades were here. Drake Haigh, President of Servpro of Northwest Lake County took the primary lead along with members of his organization. He broke down utter confusion to the "sum of it's parts", and instilled immediate confidence that we were in good hands, confirming he would stand with us throughout the initial mitigation to the final punch list to completion. That commitment of professionalism, concern, and hands on responsiveness / mediation with our insurance company in addressing the level of detail information they required was extraordinary. Every phase requiring expert expertise across multiple skill sets was incredible. When you witness a team of individuals sharing a people centric approach to a common goal, you see an organization that is cohesive and committed from the top down and bottom up! I can not say enough about Drake and his diverse team. I can only attest to a company comprised of skilled professionals that can lift the burden of loss and replace it with flawless results. You could have utter confidence in having them represent your ongoing needs dealing with the unforeseen!

Patti Ferrell

Thank you Serve Pro Mundelein for fast and excellence service!

Gina Angone

When my sump pump failed, Drake and his crew were out quickly, and saved my carpet! His guys worked hard, and made us feel at ease while they cleaned up my mess of water! I would use them again, when trouble strikes!
