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

SERVPRO of Reno Southwest responded to a water damage at my elderly mother's home. She has the early stages of dementia and can be quite a handful to deal with at times. I went over daily to try and help them do their job as mom consistently needed reminding of what they were doing and why they were doing it. She is still self sufficient for the most part and is extremely opinionated. There were days that her moods would go through such highs and lows I was worried that they would just pull off the job. Instead each day I found their crew chief Jose going patiently through the process of explaining AGAIN what was happening and why it was taking place. The entire process was extremely frustrating for myself, I cant imagine what their employees felt. Yet every time I came in contact with an employee they met me with smiles, positive comments about the project, and were just…… awesome for lack of a better word. I will absolutely choose SERVPRO of Reno Southwest again. Thank you for having the insight to hire people who have compassion and kindness bred into them!   

Thanks a bunch

To SERVPRO,

Thank you so much for offering the very informative and fun CE credit classes! So many topics of Fire and Water losses that are discussed. We always take away very valuable information, that helps us immensely in assisting our clients.

In addition, SERVPRO of Reno Southwest has always been immediately available to answer our questions. They answer our clients questions when they are experiencing any overflowing water and any unfortunate fire events.

Your customer service is and has been outstanding! Much appreciated especially in this day and age of computers and 1-800 numbers. It is so nice to pick up a phone and actually speak with a knowledgeable person to answer and assist with any questions or services.

I always look forward to our classes and working with. You always have an answer and a smile.

When I moved to Reno in June 2005 I quickly realized the work ethic and the quality of work that came out of this franchise. Regardless of the size or the complexity of the job I could count on this franchise's technicians to keep in constant contact. They would always let me know if there were issues that needed be handled before the customer ever found out about it. I would recommend this franchise many times over.

My mother was selling her rental house and found that they had some standing water under the house so she called out SERVPRO. Derek came out and was professional courteous and did not take advantage of her for being a senior citizen. he found that the only standing water was in the wheel well to enter under the house. he quickly took care of that. he was amazing this company should be recommended for the people they hire

I was very pleased with SERVPRO of Reno Southwest, their estimate was way more than fair. I called around to other companies but SERVPRO made me feel very comfortable and happy also saved me money.

Dekon and David were very professional, polite and understand about my dogs when they showed up at my home.
I'm very happy with their results and will use them again. Thank you SERVPRO

As a small business owner I can tell you how hard it is to find employees that share your passion. Your employees truly enjoy their work. From the lady answering the phone to the technicians who arrived and estimated my project to the crew sent to perform the actual work, every one of them had bright smiles on their faces, nothing but positive vibes, and laughed and joked with each other like a family. My project was simple. Vandalism clean-up at one of my rental properties, but I actually enjoyed the experience in the end. I found a company that I feel confident can basically handle any of my needs. Carpet cleaning, hvac cleaning, you name it and these people can DO IT! Thank you for CARING!!!

When my house flooded from my bathroom to my walls and down my stairs I started to freak. I didn't know what to do, I started grabbing towels, mops, buckets but nothing was working. The water started to come out of my fire detector downstairs and that's when I knew this was out of my hands. I found SERVPRO and decided to go with their company because of their reviews. Dekon Brodie was the first to respond and set my mind at ease. He was very professional,  very polite and very knowledgeable about the situation I was going through.
I couldn't be happier with my estimate because I thought it was going to cost me a fortune.
I will absolutely use SERVPRO again in the future if something unexpected occurs with my home or business needs.
Thank you again for all your help.
