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.”

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.


1.svg

Call Emergency Personnel

Emergency services should be called in a life-threatening situation.

2.svg

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.

4.svg

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.

What our
customers are saying

My wife and I highly recommend SERVPRO for fire restoration. On March 15th, strong winds caused power lines to hit and start a major fire in the basement of our home of over 40 years. SERVPRO responded quickly, secured the home by boarding up the windows, and guided us through the entire restoration process. They packed and stored our belongings in a secure, climate-controlled facility and made sure we had a place to stay during the repairs. After a little over a year, we returned to a home that felt brand new. A special thank you to Felton George (Resource Coordinator) for helping coordinate and manage the move-back of our personal property. His support and communication made a stressful process much easier. We are truly grateful for the professionalism and hard work from the entire SERVPRO team.

Edwin Aguilar

In the midst of dealing with a mold issue, it was a pleasure working with Tatiana, who assessed the damage and Victor, who remediated the mold. Both were professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. When scheduling was moving slowly, Tatiana ensured it got back on track. I hope to never have mold again, but if I do, I am calling Tatiana and requesting Victor!

Tony and Anthony are stellar. These are the dudes you want helping you out. Ask for them SPECIFICALLY.
