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
Thanks for everything! We mostly worked with Traci, Amanda, and Brian, they were awesome, kind, courteous, compassionate, and professional.
Kelly and Jordan were amazing to work with. From day one they were in my house and making phone calls to insurance to get my water damage taken care of. They made numerous trips, phone calls, and went above and beyond what their job calls for to ensure that I was taken care of. When the clean up started on my house, they did an amazing job making sure that it was done accurately and appropriately. I was expecting a rip and tear job but instead, everything was handled delicately. They kept not only me, but my insurance adjuster and contractor informed with their progress. I could go on and on about how amazing these guys are. I would 1000% recommend Kelly and Jordan from Ottumwa SERVPRO!
Prompt service and kept me informed every step of the way for every part of the project.
The people were awesome 10/10!
I wanted to thank you for the quick response the other day.
Yeah SERVPRO of Des Moines East and SW you helped save our elementary school.
We had a water damage in our school on Saturday. We called on Sunday morning and by Sunday at noon we had SERVPRO on site extracting water, setting equipment, and spraying antimicrobial.
We are very thankful for all of your help in getting us back into our house after our fire. The house is cleaned and smelling way better then it did and thanks SERVPRO for all of your help.
The crew that responded to my loss was amazing and got there so quick to help with my water loss.
December 27th we had sewer backed up in our basement. After calling SERVPRO I couldn’t believe how quick Kelly and his team responded. There work was quick, efficient they all worked as a team I was very impressed. When the contractor came out he made the comment “you can sure tell you had the A team at work here. A representative from that team was here every day to take readings on how things were drying. I truly cannot say enough about this crew from Ottumwa Iowa
