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

Thank you Servpro for your excellent job cleaning my basement. Ashley and Jason did a thorough and professional job. They were very professional in their interaction as well. I am very satisfied.

Mary Lou Connolly

We recently had Servpro of Portland and South Portland to our Bridgton home to clean fireplace soot off a very high pine ceiling. We were VERY happy with the results. The crew (Ashley, Jason, Kyle and Jonas) were professional, worked extremely hard and were a pleasure to work with.

Lois Walsh

Ashley and Jason did a world of difference in the house, which I thought would be beyond saving!!

Karen Tibbetts

I recently contacted SERVPRO after experiencing unexpected water damage. Brandon came out for the initial inspection, and I was immediately impressed by his professionalism and knowledge. What stood out even more, though, was how compassionate and understanding he was throughout the process. His advice and reassurance were honestly one of the few bright spots during an otherwise very stressful and unfortunate situation. I truly appreciated his kindness and would highly recommend him.

Maria V

Brandon and his crew were prompt, communicative, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout our service. Highly recommend.

Amy Wu

Ashley was wonderful with communicating every step of the way and any findings. She is very pleasant and knowledgeable.

Michelle Gaudette

Kyle and Chandler were amazing. Professional, respectful, and tremendously competent. Kyle went over and above to ensure that the blood on the carpet was completely removed. He understood my husband was ill and was very kind to him.

Lorrie Lutz

We had a resident flood her apartment on the 2nd floor. Servpro came and quickly cleaned the mess and dried out the apartment. Quick and great service!

Tom Smith

Chandler B. at ServPro was outstanding! He was professional, communicative, and knowledgable. We received all the information we needed quickly, he answered all of our questions, and followed-up. I would recommend ServPro, particularly Chandler, to anyone! Thanks.
