Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?
Biohazard situations demand specialized training, the right protective equipment, and real discretion, and SERVPRO of Lake Houston is prepared on every count. These are difficult moments for the people involved, and our crews approach each one with professionalism, sensitivity, and respect. We serve homes and businesses across Atascocita, Harmaston, and the Lake Houston area, responding around the clock when a situation cannot wait. Our biohazard services include crime scene and trauma scene cleanup, unattended death cleanup, hoarding cleanup, bloodborne pathogen remediation, and the safe cleaning of bodily fluids and other potentially infectious materials. This work is governed by strict safety regulations and should never be attempted by anyone without proper training and protection, because improper cleanup can leave behind hidden contamination and serious health risks. Our technicians follow OSHA safety standards, including bloodborne pathogen protocols, and carry American Bio Recovery Association certification. We contain the affected area, remove and dispose of contaminated materials according to regulation, and clean and decontaminate every surface with professional grade disinfecting agents before verifying the space has been returned to a safe condition. Throughout the process, we treat the property and the people involved with care, and we document the work thoroughly for insurance and other needs, so that no one has to face a burden like this on their own.
Services We Provide

- Blood
- Bodily fluids
- Decomposing tissue
Our professionals are trained to deal with these unique and sensitive issues using specialized, state-of-the-art equipment. We focus on ensuring that your home or business can return to a clean and safe environment as quickly as possible.

Suicide presents many hardships. Your peace of mind is important to us, and our discreet and speedy cleanup and sanitization process will ease your stress. We’re dedicated to providing speedy, discreet, and considerate cleanup so you can concentrate on your family or business affairs.
Hoarding Cleanup
Dealing with extreme clutter seems like an impossible task. Where do I start? How do I remove everything? How do I ensure that it’s sanitary? SERVPRO can provide the answers, expertise, and resources to bring your property back to a sanitary and habitable space.
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.”
Illicit Substances
The production and use of illegal drugs can result in exposure to volatile and harmful chemicals. Our professionals follow federal and state guidelines when cleaning and decontaminating the affected areas of your home or business.
Chemicals and Residues
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
- Tear gas
- Pepper spray
- Fire extinguishers
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.
Viruses & Pathogens
Through our Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned program, we offer a specialized viral pathogen deep cleaning service that ensures that you and your space are both healthy and clean. SERVPRO can assist with C diff, HIV-1, Norovirus, MRSA, and many other viruses and bacteria.
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.
What our
customers are saying
Jerry, Leo, Corine, Ernesto ,Amato and Jeremy were amazing. Thanks so much for the great service they rendered.
If you need restoration services these are the guys to call! From day 1 they showed up and started the process with such professionalism and punctuality! Great communication as well.
In life you often hear of tragic events that happen to someone else but never expect those types of events to happen to you. On September 22nd, 2025 it happened to my family. My wife and I were in the emergency room with my 92 year old mother from very early on that day keeping us away from our home until late that evening. I stayed with my mom in the emergency room and my wife went home to get some much needed rest. The plan was to relieve me the next day. When she walked in our home that night she stepped in water. As you can imagine she was in a panic. I could not leave my mother alone so I called my neighbors who graciously came to help my wife. My next call was to SERVPRO. Jerry and his crew mobilized and showed up within two hours. He quickly accessed the situation and immediately began to mitigate certain areas to prevent more loss. He updated me every step of the way on the progress during the night which gave me and my family much needed peace of mind. The feeling of helplessness I endured in the beginning by not being able to be on site was quickly alleviated by Jerry’s calm, reassuring demeanor.
I hope no one reading this ever has to go through what we went through but they happen more often than we realize. Two things I learned throughout this process -
1) We are so blessed to have special neighbors who will help drop what they are doing and come help you in a pinch day or night and -
2) Call a company like SERVPRO who has management that are extremely wise enough to hire professional people like Jerry and his crew.
Julian and alex and all the rest of SERVPRO team shaw were excellent. They were kind, polite, and courteous and went above and beyond both before during and after my flood Restoration, they were quick to answer any questions or call back or text back with any concerns I might have had communication was excellent, the work and the installation by the work crews was excellent and timely huge props to the whole team for making my time through this flood Restoration easier
About Us
When water, fire, smoke, or mold damages your home or business anywhere in the Lake Houston area, SERVPRO of Lake Houston responds 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of the year. We serve the communities ringing Lake Houston, from Atascocita and the master-planned neighborhoods of Walden on Lake Houston, Eagle Springs, and Summerwood to the historic timber settlement of Harmaston on the lake's northwestern edge. Our certified local crews know this market, a place defined by the water itself, where custom waterfront homes, lakeside subdivisions, marinas, and the offices and retail centers along FM 1960 and West Lake Houston Parkway all sit within reach of the San Jacinto River and the reservoir it feeds. They also know how fast Southeast Texas weather, from the floodwaters that follow a tropical system and force releases at the Lake Houston dam to the hard winter freezes that burst pipes, can damage a property.
We provide water damage restoration, fire and smoke damage restoration, mold remediation, sewage and biohazard cleanup, storm and flood recovery, specialty and general cleaning, air duct and HVAC cleaning, contents packout, commercial restoration, and full reconstruction. Every project begins with a clear, documented scope of work for your insurance carrier and is explained to you at each step.
What sets SERVPRO of Lake Houston apart is the combination of local knowledge and professional capability. Our crew chiefs and production managers are IICRC certified in Water Damage Restoration, Applied Structural Drying, Fire and Smoke Restoration, Odor Control, and Applied Microbial Remediation. We follow OSHA safety standards, including bloodborne pathogen, fall protection, and respirator protocols, and we carry American Bio Recovery Association certification for biohazard work. We work directly with all major insurance carriers, hold national account status with most, and communicate clearly with your adjuster so your claim keeps moving and closes quickly.
As part of the SERVPRO Team Shaw family and the acclaimed SERVPRO Disaster Recovery Team, with offices in all fifty states, we can scale our response to a single burst supply line or a regional event like Hurricane Harvey in 2017, when San Jacinto River flooding and Lake Houston dam releases inundated thousands of homes around the lake, or the February 2021 winter freeze that ruptured pipes across the region. From an Atascocita lakefront home to a business along FM 1960, we bring the same certified crews and the same standards to every job. Whatever the size of the loss, our goal is the same. We work quickly and thoroughly to make your home or business “Like it never even happened.® ”
