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.

I had a water leak at home and Ralph came alone and helped me out and brought all the drying equipment and set everything up. Very happy with the service Ralph provided to us.

I was watching a friend’s house for a week and didn’t realize I left water running in their half bath. It caused a pipe leak and I felt responsible to fix the damage. Mildew was everywhere under the cabinets after a few days, but SERVPRO got it cleared up. Phew!

The realtor office next to my sport shop had a fire and we had a lot of smoke that came into our unit. I thought I was going to have to consider a lot of inventory a loss, but SERVPROs help saved a lot of it with the cleaning and machinery.

We left for the weekend and didn’t realize a storm was coming through. Water came in through our carport and did tons of damage to our entry by the kitchen. Mold was growing, it was gross. Glad SERVPRO was available, wouldn’t have done it myself.

My mother lives with us and burns a lot of candles. Her cat must’ve gotten close and it tipped and the curtain caught on fire. We didn’t notice until a lot was burned. You guys showed up after it was out and saved a lot of clothing and items. Great work.

My dishwasher kicked out on me and sent water everywhere in the kitchen. I tried mopping it but saw the cabinets got wet, so I called SERVPRO. Glad I did! The water had already started to warp some kickboards but they got it all fixed for me like new. Thanks

– First, mold is gross and I can’t believe I found some in my hall closet. I guess a pipe was leaking. Anyhow, SERVPRO’s help was great and they ensured the problem got fixed before cleaning it up. I feel I can breathe now.
