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.

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.

Very professional and mannerly group of people. Frankie is without a doubt one of the hardest working, well mannered and kind young men I've met in a very long time. Keep that kid!

Sharon Fisher

They came out first thing Monday morning after my basement flooded on Sunday night during the heavy raiin inJuly. They removed carpet, cut out the sheetrock and used huge fans to dry everything. Michael and Jose were in charge of the restoration. They and their team did an excellent job and were great to work with. They repaired sheetrock, painted everything and installed a new floor. They were very responsive to any concerns I had. I am very pleased.

Karen Stewart

I had a wonderful experience with serv pro..all of the supervisors were helpful and available. The workers for contents and demolition were kind hard working people who were all sensitive to the loss I was experiencing. My overall experience was wonderful

My wife is deaf and the crew in which Ken, Caleb are in treated her with respect trying there best to communicate which is admirable. They explained I interpreted everything. Did a great job. Oh the fans did not bother her at all.

Carlos A. Motta

I highly recommend Servpro. We had extensive damage to our home when a tree crashed through the roof during a windstorm.Their debris removal team did an excellent job led by Ken. I have the highest praise for the contents team led by Patricia Valenzuela. She was an excellent communicator, friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to organize, answer questions, and get the job done efficiently. The team of women she led worked well as a team. Patricia kept me informed as to their arrival every day and She frequently checked with me when needed about various items and did a thorough inventory. She worked with me to locate some valuable items to ensure reimbursement. She was great with our dog as well. We were grateful to have her and her team during a very difficult time.

From the start they provided great communication. Everyone I was exposed to were courteous and task orientated. They could not represent their company any better. I definitely highly recommend from this recent experience!
