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.

Absolutely the best! I have used them in my home and also at work. Always there when I need them. I never hesitate to refer my customers to them. They go where I need them, when I need them. They even rescued one of my commercial customers that had a huge leak in their office on Thanksgiving. Need I say more?

John K.

"I would recommend this SERVPRO office to anyone in need of their services. We were out of town for much of the work. We were kept informed of the entire process, when to expect completion and had all our questions answered in a very timely manner. All in all, it was an excellent experience for an unfortunate occurrence."

Sarah B.

Your prompt service was appreciated. We called you and you sent a crew over immediately to take care of the flooded basement. The work was completed in a timely manner and at a very fair price! I will be sure to recommend SERVPRO to anybody who has water or fire damage!

There are not enough accolades to sing the praises of this company. We had severe water damage due to a burst sprinkler system pipe. Joe and his men were here within hours and worked long into the evening to assess the damage, tear out walls, ceilings, insulation, etc. They removed the damaged areas in our home, sprayed anti-mold solution on the exposed materials and set up air handlers and dehumidifiers before leaving late at night. Efrain managed the work throughout the day. The work ethic of the crew, their knowledge of the problem and solving it and respect to our home, belongings and us were beyond what we could have hoped for. DO NOT hesitate to call this company. When you're faced with such a dilemma and don't know what to do, having a company like SERVPRO South Albany County to guide you through the process is such a comfort.
