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

The folks from SERVPRO were wonderful when our church in La Mesa flooded in June, because of a pipe that burst! They got there fast and got busy. They knew what they were doing, but took pains to make sure we understood everything that needed to happen as well. Their follow-up was outstanding, and we ended up using them for the re-build as well. They were great at making sure we were able to use the space on weekends when we needed it. I would recommend them highly!

I really appreciate SERVPRO's quick response when one of my clients recently had water damage due to a roof leak in San Diego.

I know I can always count on you guys to do a good job, keep in good communication, and keep my clients happy.

Thank you!

I own a lot of property throughout San Diego and there is no one I would ever call for water remediation issues besides SERVPRO, and specifically Ben Sussman.

He is thorough, professional, and treats everything with a sense of urgency, which is the most important factor when dealing with water damage.

He has handled small jobs for us, up to very, very large jobs. And we've never been disappointed.

Stephanie, the Contents Manager, at SERVPRO San Diego couldn't have been any better. USAA referred me directly to SERVPRO and Stephanie oversaw not only my contents cleaning but the cleaning to my home after a major fire recently.

Special thank you to Bret, Matt, and Brenda as well. Couldn't be happier that SERVPRO helped me!
