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.”

Our technicians specialize in the safe, thorough removal of chemical residues left behind after emergencies, law enforcement activity, or industrial accidents. We can handle a wide range of hazardous materials and contamination scenarios, such as:
- Fingerprint powder

SERVPRO follows all OSHA and EPA guidelines to make sure all chemical contaminants are safely removed, leaving your space clean, compliant, and habitable.
Squad Cars and Jail Cells
Keeping our first responders safe and healthy is a top priority. Contaminants and biohazards like:
- Blood
- Drug Residue
- Bodily Fluids
must be removed and the affected area decontaminated to ensure safety, compliance, and peace of mind.
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.
Call Emergency Personnel
Emergency services should be called in a life-threatening situation.
Do Not Attempt Any Cleaning Yourself
Cleaning of any kind could interfere with a possible investigation and expose you to harmful contaminated materials.
Stay Out Of The Area
Stay out of any affected areas. There may be potentially dangerous hazardous materials left behind.
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.
Simplifying Insurance
We make insurance claims easier, with fewer headaches for you. We handle the details and coordinate any paperwork, so you can focus on moving forward.
We will thoroughly document the damage and communicate clearly with you and your insurance company throughout the process.
Your insurance provider trusts SERVPRO to respond quickly—we address biohazard issues swiftly to ensure the safety of all concerned, prevent further damage, control costs, and keep the insurance process moving smoothly.

Becky, Jeremy, Steve,Lorrayne, Jim and Chuck were so kind and helpful after water damage required me to get a new floor. I really enjoyed having them complete the work from their fast response to my emergency call to painting when the work was complete, I highly recommend them and plan to have them back to do some more work!
We had water damage from a second floor washer in our home. Steve, Becky, Jim, Chuck, Jimmy and Pat were wonderful to work with. Jim, Chuck and Pat were in our home doing the repairs. They were always on time and respectful. They did a great job on all repairs. Our home looks better now than it did before the damage. I highly recommend SERVPRO of Altoona to anyone. Thank you all for all your help during this very stressful time.
"I cannot say enough good things about this company. We had a basement fire that left our home with smoke damage. I was devastated when I was told most of everything had to go I loved the way my house was BUT Jim and Chuck went above and beyond and made our home better than it actually was before. They not only do amazing work but they actually care about their customers. They made sure even the smallest details were perfect, things I myself would never even have thought about. They turned a sad situation into something exciting. I always looked forward to stopping at the house to see what they had done. They made sure we got exactly what we wanted and then some ..... I highly recommend them to anyone! We will actually miss having them around!"
