Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

Bio-threats can occur without warning and pose significant threats to those exposed. With the severity of these situations, our biohazard recovery and cleaning division of our SERVPRO team is one of the most experienced and prepared for what might occur. We have extensive training and preparation both through different accreditations from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) and through the American Bio-Recovery Association (ABRA). With both ABRA and IICRC certifications, as well as specialized training for situations like bloodborne pathogens, our professionals get prepared for any threat we might face from homes in Closter and Old Tappan to commercial structures like MetLife Stadium or Westfield Garden State Plaza.

Unlike other niches of the restoration industry, biohazard cleanup can encompass many threats within this same division including traumas, crime scene cleanup, drug lab cleanup, chemical spills, pathogenic threats, sewage, hoarding, and many more situations. All of these can be stressful and traumatic for the customer, so we move quickly to get our empathetic and compassionate professionals on site to help you through a difficult time.

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.”

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.

I wanted to reiterate that Matt has been outstanding. He was very thorough and helpful during the course of the remediation work. This mini-disaster is the last thing we thought could happen to our house, where we have been staying for almost 40 years. Matt allayed all our fears through his work and kept us informed throughout the process.

It's very rare that I give "Straight A's", so to speak, for services. I would happily give Matt and SERVPRO perfect scores. I will also make sure to post similarly positive comments on social media sites.
