Why Choose SERVPRO for Biohazard Cleaning Services?

The cleanup of bio hazard substances should always be completed by professionals due to the health risks involved. SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge has the specialized equipment, training and expertise to safely and professionally handle these jobs. We are capable and have experience in sewage backups, suicide and crime scene cleanups including meth houses, human and animal waste as well as hoarding which many times turns into a bio hazard situation.

Proper cleaning and disposal are paramount and with most of these situations a odor component is also present. Hydroxyls, air scrubbers and vapor sharks are just some of the equipment we employ to eliminate the odor molecules. Having the most current odor eliminating equipment is one advantage to hiring SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge. Improper cleanup of a sewage backup could potentially lead to dangerous mold growth and we have the expertise to assure that does not occur. Having experience in suicide and crime scene cleanups requires a certain amount of tact and empty which comes with our training.

We currently work with many local police departments, state police, county officials and several nursing homes and senior centers in these areas. They know they can trust SERVPRO to complete the job professionally and work with the insurance companies to ensure payment.

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.

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.

This team is extremely professional, courteous, and caring individuals throughout the entire process. Can't say enough about Dawn and her crew (Al, Donny, Dave, Tammy and Corey) for all the hard work that they accomplished. We were amazed at what they did. They should all get raises. Thank You.

You just finished clean up after our sewer line overflowed into our 1/2 bathroom and family room. I wanted to compliment the folks you sent to help do the demo, clean up, and dry out of the space. They were a friendly hardworking group who were also understanding and accommodating of my allergy issues that could have been triggered by some of the clean up process. Chris headed up the job and was especially patient with my questions and explaining the process. I was having difficulty finding a local contractor who does concrete polishing and Chris also shared a contact for a contractor I wouldn't have been able to find otherwise. Thanks for being there and doing what you do to make an unfortunate situation better.
