The SERVPRO team is well known in the Green Bay area for our work with fire, water and mold damage restoration, but our technicians’ skills go well beyond those subjects. Did you know they’re trained to handle biohazard, crime scene and vandalism cleanup as well?

Hazards like biological and chemical contaminants can pose serious health risks to people and animals. If you experience an issue with these kinds of contaminants, you can put yourself in danger trying to handle the cleanup on your own.

SERVPRO professionals are trained to safely, efficiently and effectively remove these biohazardous substances. They have the necessary equipment and cleaning products to ensure your home or business will be clean and safe once more.

It’s important to note, SERVPRO teams are trained to meet all OSHA, EPA, state and local health regulations.

A few examples of the biohazards our technicians can take care of include:

  • Bloodborne Pathogens – Techs are trained to remove and dispose of bodily fluids, tissue and other pathogenic substances that may result from accidents, trauma, crimes or deaths. The technicians will thoroughly clean, disinfect and deodorize following any such incident.
  • Methamphetamine (Meth) Labs – The chemicals that go into the meth making process can be volatile and dangerous. Such chemicals are often left behind after a meth lab is found. SERVPRO professionals follow state and federal guidelines to properly clean these up.
  • Crime Scene Residues – Our techs are able to clean up anything from fingerprint power to tear gas and pepper spray residues, ensuring safety and cleanliness.
  • Vandalism – SERVPRO’s team can clean up vandalism like graffiti.

The technicians are not limited to those four categories, some more biohazard incidents they’re prepared to handle include:

  • Arson
  • Sewage Backups
  • Animal Waste
  • Certain Chemical Spills
  • Black Water Intrusions
