Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

Biohazard and Crime Scene Cleanup in Oakville & Mehlville

When a crime scene, trauma, death, or biohazard incident occurs, cleanup requires more than caution. SERVPRO of Oakville/Mehlville responds 24/7 with trained biohazard specialists who handle blood, bodily fluids, and decomposition with the discretion these situations demand.

What Does Biohazard Cleanup Actually Cover?

Our technicians manage crime scene and trauma cleanup, unattended death and suicide cleanup, hoarding remediation, rodent infestation cleanup, and decontamination of illicit substances and chemical residues. We also handle law enforcement vehicles exposed to blood or drug residue, and offer viral pathogen cleaning for C diff, MRSA, and norovirus. Once law enforcement clears the scene, our team conducts a full safety assessment before cleanup begins.

Why You Should Never Clean a Biohazard Scene Yourself

Bodily fluids carry serious infection risk, and cleaning without proper training can expose you to harm or compromise an investigation. Stay out of the area and call certified professionals who follow OSHA and EPA protocols.

Insurance Support You Can Count On

We document the damage and communicate directly with your insurance provider, keeping the claims process moving while you focus on your family or business.

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.

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.

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

Our basement was recently flooded. We called them to come help with the cleanup and they were here immediately. After the cleanup, we signed a contract to have them do the reconstruction. They worked with our insurance company and came back and completed the job. The painting, the drywalling and the carpet laying were all done so nicely. We love how the house turned out.

Linda Zadow

The associates/technicians were so professional, kind, and friendly in putting my basement back in order, after a sump pump fail. They were very focused on their task, and did not hesitate to answer any of my questions. I would like to recognize Kirk, Miguel, Christina, and Louie, along with Dan, who was my primary contact. I would reach out to SerPro again. Thank you.

Patricia Haynes

If I could give more than 5 stars I surely would. Project manager Dan Brym was fabulous and so on top of things. Kept me informed everyday of what was done and what time and who would be there the next day. He was calming and addressed everything as fast as could be done. Louie, Collin, Tom, Justin and Kirk all were so meticulous and caring about the tasks they were completing. Everyday they cleaned up and left things as neat as possible. Collin was a great team leader and you can tell he really cares about the job. I can not say enough about the great experience I had with this team.
