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

Starting with an after-hours weekend service call to the final touches of cleanup the service was 5-stars. The job was unique; the attention to detail and communication lead to a timely and successful service. Thank you.

Stephanie White

I recently used ServPro of Gateway and Western Lake County or a major flood within a historic commercial facility. From the first phone call to establish service throughout the entire service period, the team at ServPro were highly professional and outstanding! The project manager Mike and his crew were phenomenal in the care, attention, and explanation of the services we would receive. They provided great communication daily receiving updates from them as needed. I highly recommend ServePro for disaster recovery as they exceeded all expectations during a very difficult time. As stated on their letter head "like it never happened" and in fact, the final results truly appeared like it never happened. Thank you ServPro Team (Lori, Mike, Alex + Crew)

Techs were extremely helpful and professional when coming into our home to evaluate water getting into the basement.

Kerrie Sirianni

Servpro was great! Despite multiple teams working on my project, communication to me stayed consistent and anytime I had a question they got back to me in a timely manner.

I want to recognize the excellent job Servpro did all around during my mitigation process. I had a terrible accident happen with water damage in my home leaving me anxious and scared of the unknown and Scott and his team were knowledgeable, flexible and able to put some of my anxiety at ease in that very beginning. Thanks again for the pleasant experience!

Aali Snax Wilson

Although our basement flood could’ve been a lot worse – we had a lot of anxiety and fear about the damage that was done. The Servpro team was so professional and thorough. They made me feel at ease that they were really checking every spot and making sure that we didn’t have mold growth - and wouldn’t in the future. I feel very comfortable about the work that was done to dry out the space quickly. The team was always on time and communicating with me despite my crazy schedule sometimes working from home. Thanks!

Had water damage at two separate locations and ServPro handled the load perfectly!
