Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

Whether it involves an unattended death, crime scene, blood or bodily fluids, or another hazardous material situation, our South Austin team is trained to handle biohazard cleanup safely, thoroughly, and with discretion.

We understand these situations come with real emotional weight, which is why our technicians work quickly and respectfully, so families and business owners can focus on what matters most instead of the cleanup itself. Once any necessary police or fire investigations are complete, our team begins with a full safety and damage assessment before starting cleanup and restoration.

Our biohazard remediation services include:

  • Blood & Bodily Fluid Cleanup: Safe removal and disinfection following IICRC-recommended protocols
  • Crime Scene & Trauma Cleanup: Thorough, discreet restoration of affected areas
  • Unattended Death Cleanup: Compassionate, professional handling of sensitive situations
  • Hazardous Material Cleanup: Safe removal and disposal of biohazardous waste
  • Odor & Contaminant Treatment: Restoring air quality and eliminating lingering effects

We also coordinate directly with insurance providers to help keep the claims process moving, so you can get back to a clean, safe environment with less to manage on your own.

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.

Nancy Nusser

Tyler Haddock

So Miguel Hector Sabrina Sai, Darwin, Darwin, Darwin, an outstanding job when they were here I highly recommend this company to anybody that wants to use sure pro in the future for water restoration. Thank you for the great job.

Robert Trimble

Quick response and professional service from the start. Jester was fantastic as project manager. Hector and his crew with Nate, Alec, Marco, Darwin, and Andrew made daily check ins and modifications to ensure mitigation went smoothly. Best of all their standards and work were completely in line with insurance expectations and their documentation was top notch.

Austin Manning

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 — Outstanding Service, Communication & Quality of Work I had an excellent experience with SERVPRO for both water mitigation and mold remediation in my kitchen. From beginning to end, the entire team was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. I especially want to thank Nick, who was wonderful from the very beginning. I know their team has a lot on their plate, and mine was a relatively small job, but I never once felt like a small customer. Nick made my situation feel just as important as a much larger project. He kept me informed, responded to my questions and concerns, and made sure things kept moving forward. That level of communication and customer service meant a lot to me. The two gentlemen who performed the remediation work were equally wonderful. They were professional, respectful, and took great care of my home throughout the process. They listened to my concerns and were very thoughtful about how the work was performed, making sure everything was remediated thoroughly and correctly. Dealing with water damage and mold in your home is stressful, and having a team that communicates well, listens to you, and genuinely seems to care about doing the job right makes an enormous difference. I couldn’t have been happier with my experience and would absolutely recommend SERVPRO. 10/10 for customer service, communication, professionalism, and quality of work.

Amazing work!! So appreciative of their fast and great work.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this ServPro. We recently needed a fast clean up. From the time I contacted them until the job was finished was less than 5 hours. Carlos was very efficient in getting me the quote and information needed and replied graciously to my many texts. Yuli, Rosa and Xai were also very efficient and thorough in cleaning up an unpleasant situation. Going above and beyond when the next morning I realized I needed to retrieve something I had asked them to throw away they not only found it but dropped it off at the site. I really was blown away!

Teri Smith

Got a water leak up stairs, which also impacted my kitchen downstairs. Crew showed up within an hour of me calling and had the place stabilized within a couple hours. They did clean work taking down the walls, insulation, backsplash, and getting the place dried. They checked in every day to see the status. Couldn't ask for more. Shout out to the crew Jester, Juan, Edward and Drew as well as the two men that showed up to stabilize the place after my initial call (sorry, I forgot your names). Great job guys! (No, they don't give discounts for reviews. I wanted to mention this as some places do shady stuff for reviews. I wrote this to help the team and because I am genuinely happy with the service)

Jeremy Amberg

Hector Castro, Jose Pinedo, and Kendra Soto were great. Efficient and friendly!
