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.”

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.

What our
customers are saying

We are so thankful for SERVPRO, we called them needing our AC units cleaned for summer time- it was a new house and they had black mold in them. Within 24 hours they sent out Eddie who gave a thorough check of the AC Units and educated us on the situation before ultimately suggesting to get new ones. I wouldn’t contact anyone else other than SERVPRO to give me an opinion. I appreciate their honesty and professional opinion when it comes to the air quality in my home. If you need a cleaning service these guys are top notch. Thanks Eddie and SERVPRO team for coming out so fast and helping us determine the best option for our home!

SERVPRO made it easy to get my vents cleaned. I saw the owner at a restaurant. He told me to contact the office. The person who answered the phone had great customer service skills, answered my questions and set up the appointment for 9am. Robby and Eddie arrived promptly. Robby walked me through the process and quoted me a price. Four hours later I paid and am very satisfied.

I am Deputy Jason Bush’s Mom. I saw the tree in person today (1-1-2020) at the Sheriff’s Dept. It was beautiful. Love all the ornaments that represented the department and my favorite color is blue. It was very nice of you to submit a tree to the hospice festival of trees and then donate. I appreciate the lovely honor to all the people in blue and especially the honor to my son. It sure did touch my heart. Just wanted to express my thanks. Sincerely, Vicki Bush

We had SERVPRO come in this morning to clean and disinfect our carpets. It was an emergency and they worked us in really well with their schedule! We had an agent named Ricky Kline. He was very professional, polite, and efficient! He did an amazing job on our carpets in under an hour!! Can't give enough praise for this service. Thank you SERVPRO for everything!

After a few years of normal wear and tear, SERVPRO came in and did a phenomenal job steam cleaning our carpets. They were rejuvenated to look like new! The crew was efficient and friendly, and the cleaning cost very affordable. Highly recommend.

About Us





Proudly Serving California, MD & St. Mary’s County

Here in California, MD, we know the value of community. When disaster strikes—whether it’s a flooded basement in Lexington Park or smoke damage in Great Mills—you don’t just need a cleanup crew. You need neighbors who get it.

That’s where SERVPRO comes in. Since 1986, we’ve been restoring homes and businesses throughout St. Mary’s County with expertise, heart, and a steady hand. We know the quirks of local weather, the charm (and challenges) of older buildings, and the importance of getting life back to normal—fast.

We don’t just throw around jargon. If we talk about “containment,” we’ll explain that it means sealing off damaged areas to keep the mess from spreading. “Structural drying”? That’s just our fancy way of saying we use industrial equipment to pull moisture out of walls, floors, and hidden spaces.

Why Locals Trust SERVPRO:

  • Deep local roots—we live and work here, too.

  • Highly trained crews certified in water, fire, and mold cleanup.

  • Start-to-finish service—from emergency response to final repairs.

We’re the folks who roll up our sleeves when things get tough. Our mission? To turn chaos into calm and help you feel at home again.

Ready to breathe easy? Let SERVPRO restore your peace of mind—"Like it never even happened."
