Services We Provide
Crime Scene and Trauma
Crime scene and trauma cleanup requires a compassionate, professional, and timely response. We approach these situations with both technical expertise and respect for the people involved. Serious health hazards are posed by hazardous substances like:
- Blood
- Bodily fluids
- Decomposing tissue
Our professionals are trained to deal with these unique and sensitive issues using specialized, state-of-the-art equipment. We focus on ensuring that your home or business can return to a clean and safe environment as quickly as possible.
Death and Suicide
Discovering the remains of someone who’s passed away is a shocking and tragic experience. SERVPRO understands and is here to help, bringing compassion and the necessary tools and resources to discreetly clean, disinfect, and deodorize the affected area.
Suicide presents many hardships. Your peace of mind is important to us, and our discreet and speedy cleanup and sanitization process will ease your stress. We’re dedicated to providing speedy, discreet, and considerate cleanup so you can concentrate on your family or business affairs.
Hoarding Cleanup
Dealing with extreme clutter seems like an impossible task. Where do I start? How do I remove everything? How do I ensure that it’s sanitary? SERVPRO can provide the answers, expertise, and resources to bring your property back to a sanitary and habitable space.
Rodent Infestation
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.”
Viruses & Pathogens
Through our Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned program, we offer a specialized viral pathogen deep cleaning service that ensures that you and your space are both healthy and clean. SERVPRO can assist with C diff, HIV-1, Norovirus, MRSA, and many other viruses and bacteria.
Illicit Substances
The production and use of illegal drugs can result in exposure to volatile and harmful chemicals. Our professionals follow federal and state guidelines when cleaning and decontaminating the affected areas of your home or business.
Chemicals and Residues
Our technicians specialize in the safe, thorough removal of chemical residues left behind after emergencies, law enforcement activity, or industrial accidents. We can handle a wide range of hazardous materials and contamination scenarios, such as:
- Fingerprint powder
- Tear gas
- Pepper spray
- Fire extinguishers
SERVPRO follows all OSHA and EPA guidelines to make sure all chemical contaminants are safely removed, leaving your space clean, compliant, and habitable.
Squad Cars and Jail Cells
Keeping our first responders safe and healthy is a top priority. Contaminants and biohazards like:
- Blood
- Drug Residue
- Bodily Fluids
must be removed and the affected area decontaminated to ensure safety, compliance, and peace of mind.
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.
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.
Simplifying Insurance
We make insurance claims easier, with fewer headaches for you. We handle the details and coordinate any paperwork, so you can focus on moving forward.
We will thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance company throughout the process.
Your insurance provider trusts SERVPRO to respond quickly—we address biohazard issues swiftly to ensure the safety of all concerned, prevent further damage, control costs, and keep the insurance process moving smoothly.
What our
customers are saying
Marco and team were responsive, flexible and professional from quote to delivery. After a 4th of July house fire, the SERVPRO team was at our home and ready to get cleaning as soon as we called them. Literally, within an hour or so from us calling, Marco and his manager were there, ready to do whataver we needed done.
After a bunch of quotes and annoying processes with other companies, we called SERVPRO back and had them come do the work. They matched the best quotes from their competition and did a great job.
We are very thankful for Marco, Brian, and the rest of the SERVPRO team.
My subzero fridge supply line broke, say bye to the kitchen! A different SERVPRO came out first and they said it would take two weeks. I said heck no! I talked to my insurance and they said I can call SERVPRO of Santa Barbara because I'm within their service area. The office staff was extremely polite and had their team at my house in a few hours. Within the first two days they had the whole kitchen and neighboring bathroom demo-ed and it was dry in four days. It was excellent! I recommend SERVPRO of Santa Barbara to EVERYONE
I would highly recommend SERVPRO Santa Barbara to anyone in need of any emergency restoration. Jamie and his crew are fantastic. Fast, reliable and the restoration was perfect.
SERVPRO arrived when we had a fire in our house. They set up generator, HEPA filters and took pictures right away. They did the clean up and the construction that follow since the house was almost 100 years old and the city required it be brought up to code. Every person they had work on the house from the foundation to the roof did a fantastic job. We just recommended them to friends who will have to clean up and rebuild after the Thomas Fire. SERVPRO was friendly, personable but professional and understanding. Danielle
I was incredibly impressed with the commitment and professionalism shown by all I communicated with at SERVPRO. I contacted them after it was discovered that my brother had died during his sleep in his apartment. They decontaminated and cleaned the apartment with compassion and really helped during a very difficult time. Great job and I highly recommend them.
Jozy and Christian were great in restoring my condo after a flood. They worked tirelessly. Very reliable.
Jesus and Salud were great. Highly recommend them!
I was really lucky to find Jamie Glimp and SERVPRO. They managed a number of projects for me over the last year and did a fantastic job every time. They are extremely competent and professional. Their communication skills are the best I’ve ever seen when dealing with contractors. Their office person Katy is organized and thorough. They kept me informed at every stage of the projects they did for me, came when they said they were coming, checked on sub-contractors all the time, in short—they managed every project with skill and professionalism. They earned my trust at every turn, and I always felt I could depend on them to do jobs right. They never disappointed me, not once. I have the highest regard for their services and highly recommend them.
Adrian and his associates, Victor and Jozy, listened to my needs and delivered. Very professional and reliable. I recommend them!
