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.

I was so happy to hear that this office will now be managed by the pro's who run Ebensburg SERVPRO. I've seen their quality of work at my place of employment and have no doubt they will raise the Altoona SERVPRO to that same standard. Congrats Altoona!

Steve is awesome to work with. He went above and beyond. Would give 10 stars if I could.

John Partner is the weekly cleaner where I work. His professionalism and attention to detail is amazing. I see him as a perfect fit to our large office family. John is happy to help any way he can and he always performs his tasks in a safe manner. We feel blessed to have such a hard worker that takes pride in what he does. Thank you SERVPRO for hiring John to service our office cleaning needs. We truly appreciate him.

Heidi Metz

The Laskey's of Hollidaysburg had a water-line backup in March. Called ServPro and they came, the day of the call. Beckie, (all the Jims), Chuck, Bryan and those we might have forgotten, did efficient, exceptional work, on walls, flooring and restoration. We are extremely satisfied, with ServPro workers who did over-and-above what is required. Qualified, knowledgeable, friendly and willing to compromise, with us. ServPro's qualified experts are to be commended.

Terry Laskey

I had a fire last July and Servpro was recommended. From the crew chief who walked me through the process, the cleanup crew and the contractors who surpassed every expectation I had, I got back a home that is absolutely perfect. In a very difficult situation they all made it alittle bit easier to get through it. I would recommend this company to anyone who would ever be in need of their service.
