Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

Biohazard cleanup is a service that our franchise provides that can encompass many unique and sensitive needs for our clients throughout the communities that we serve. Animals can affect properties throughout our region, especially the possibilities of bears taking up residence within crawlspaces or rodents getting into areas of your home or business and dying. Our technicians can effectively eliminate all evidence of these occurrences from the removal of scat and fecal matter to dead rodent removal and deodorization.

Trauma cleanup and bodily fluid removal are also areas where our trained technicians can help your property. Our on-going safety education for each of our professionals ensures that safe practices are in place for efficient and effective removal of harmful or unsanitary substances such as blood, urine, chemicals, pathogenic bacteria, meth labs, and other hazardous compounds.

Equipment like thermal foggers and ozone generators can remove or significantly reduce harsh odors that exist both on the property, and on the individual affected contents that require focused attention, disinfection, and cleaning off-site.

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.

What our
customers are saying

When our washing machine started leaking all over our home, I luckily found the number for your team of professionals. They got here fast and fixed the problem, plus showed me how to keep this from happening in the future.

When we had a small electrical fire break out from a space heater, there was some fire damage left behind. Without the help of this great company, we would have surely not been able to get our home restored as quickly.

Highly impressed and absolutely appreciated the SERVPRO employee that came to my house. Thank you very much!

I want to emphasize that we were very pleased with all of the major activities you did on the repair. The walls, the flooring, the cabinets over the washer/dryer, and the front door look great. The only drawback for us is it looks so nice now that we have to upgrade other things in there like the light fixture.



Thank you for your support on this job. The communication and timeliness were excellent. Tell Joe we hope his knee is getting better!

I want to thank you for helping me with the insurance company. I also want to compliment John and his guys for the great job they did. I actually feel like I bonded with them and like they wanted to do everything right. Very pleased with the job they did.

Thank you again!

When my grill caught on fire and caught our home on fire as well, I was devastated. However, your company was able to help put our home back in order after the fire department left.
