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.

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

Please extend my sincere and special thanks to Yahya Hamid at SERVPRO for his support and repair of my damaged mailbox over the weekend, his off day. When one of employees accidentally backed over my mailbox and knocked it down, he didn’t wait until Monday to repair it. He contacted a repair person on Saturday morning and I was able to receive my USPS mail again on Monday morning! Thank you Mr. Yahya Hamad, SERVPRO Estimator.

Oscar, Jose and team were fantastic! They got us taken care of quickly

Scott Lisko

Yahya Hamad was thorough, professional, and he coordinated effectively with everyone involved to move a situation forward. His responsiveness and attention to detail made a real difference during a stressful situation. I’m very grateful for his help and highly recommend him and SERVPRO.

Tina C

We had a very stressful time following a flood in our basement, and difficulties with another company not completing the job properly. Servpro came right in and cleaned up their mess, and got everything back to normal for our family. Yahya specifically was so helpful and kind. Our new floors look amazing, and having someone patient and honest through the process was so helpful. Highly recommend this company for restoration jobs!

Carrie V

I only use Servpro because of Yah Ya. I could tell from the first meeting that he was very knowledgeable and cares about his work. Having your house burnt and ruined from fire and water damage is one of the most traumatic experience but Yah Ya saved me from most of the mental stress I would to go through if he was assigned to my job. Thank you Yah Ya so much for saving us.
