Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

As with any type of property damage, SERVPRO Sunland/Tujunga professionals ensure that their actions do not worsen the sense of loss of the property owners. SERVPRO Sunland/Tujunga professionals are exceptionally sensitive as they understand that those involved may be emotionally vulnerable.

When dealing with this type of cleanup, it is important to always show extra care and compassion. SERVPRO Sunland/Tujunga technicians empathize with persons dealing with these traumatic situations.



Biohazard cleanup involves cleaning, sanitizing, and deodorizing areas where a traumatic event such as an accident, injury or death has occurred. Thus, dealing with biohazards often means dealing with blood, human or animal remains, chemical spills, and more.



Biohazard cleaning must be carried out by trained and experienced professionals who have access to personal protective equipment, industrial cleaning tools and industrial chemicals. Biohazards must be disposed of according to government laws and regulations, and affected locations decontaminated.



The systems that SERVPRO Sunland/Tujunga uses helps stop the spread of pathogen-based illnesses, such as Influenza and Norovirus. The process uses Environmental Protection Agency-registered, safe products to provide up to three months of protection against pathogens.

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.
