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.

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.

annette catania

Our lake house suffered fire and smoke damage and Edwin, Kyle & Kody from SERVPRO were fantastic. They kept us updated each step of the cleanup process. I would highly recommend.

Tim Gorman

After experiencing a flood from an upstairs bathroom, I had the pleasure of working with the Servpro team for both the initial mitigation and the demolition/mitigation process. I cannot say enough good things about Edwin, the lead technician, and his assistants, Kyle and Kody. From day one, they were professional, respectful, knowledgeable, and incredibly hardworking. Edwin’s communication was outstanding. He always kept me informed of arrival times, explained each step of the process, and made sure I knew what to expect next. Whenever I had questions, he was thorough, patient, and professional in his responses. What stood out most was the genuine care and compassion they showed throughout a very stressful situation. While I experienced challenges communicating with my Liberty Mutual adjuster and often felt unheard or dismissed, Edwin and his team made me feel listened to, respected, and understood. They treated both my home and my family with care and empathy during a difficult time. The quality of their work, attention to detail, and commitment to customer service were exceptional. I highly recommend Edwin, Kyle, Kody, and the entire Servpro team to anyone needing restoration or mitigation services. They turned a stressful experience into one that was manageable, and for that I am truly grateful.
