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 could not be happier with the outstanding water mitigation services provided by Moe and Floyd. From Tuesday, September 15, through the late afternoon of Thursday, September 17, they demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, expertise, and customer care. I am naturally hesitant to open my home to strangers, and my experience with Roto-Rotter last month did little to ease those concerns. However, Moe and Floyd quickly won me over and earned my complete trust. They freely shared information, answered every question thoroughly, and walked me through each step of the mitigation process so I always knew what to expect and was never surprised. I interacted with Moe mostly, but their communication, transparency, and attention to physical and emotional details made a very stressful situation for ME that much easier to navigate. It was clear they took pride in their work, genuinely cared about doing the job right, and most importantly caring about the customer infront of them. Moe and Floyd are true professionals, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of water mitigation services. They are outstanding reflections of their profession and provide exceptional service from start to finish. 6-Stars

The team was so nice. Our house flooded and they were fast, professional and kind. Under the circumstances, it was as good as it could get I guess.

Diana Cali Skubé

Service was excellent. My call was answered right away, Moe and Ryan came to my house the next morning, removed all the water damaged areas, built a barrier, added equipment and then showed up the day we expected them to return and remove everything. Very professional and efficient!
