Biohazard: An Unattended Death Cleanup in Diamond Springs

2/22/2021 (Permalink)

Biohazard cleanups are sensitive in nature, and our team of technicians have the proper training to handle a biohazard, even unattended death cleanups

There are some instances where people may pass away surrounded by loved ones, or at least one person aware of the passing shortly after it happens...but what about those who pass away by themselves without anyone knowing about it for days, weeks, or even months?

These things do happen. When this situation occurs, the person is found by a family member or a friend who has gone to check in on them, or the smell of the decomposing body has alerted nearby neighbors to the issue.

When an individual dies, the body begins the decomposition process. The body tissue begins to break down and fluids follow the force of gravity into whatever layers are below the body. This can be:

• Fabric
• Furniture
• Flooring
• Interior building structure

The lengths these fluids travel will be dependent on the speed of the decomposition process, and the time it took for the body to be discovered. Regardless, the building is uninhabitable and unsafe until every small amount of fluid has been removed and the area is thoroughly cleaned and decontaminated by a biohazard trained professional. We, at SERVPRO of El Dorado Hills/Placerville, are trained to safely remove biohazard content, handle biohazard cleanup, and restore the property to a safe and clean environment. 

For the loved ones left behind or the owner of the rental property, we understand that dealing with the cleanup of an unattended death can be damaging to your health and emotionally traumatic. In these moments, SERVPRO of El Dorado Hills/Placerville is here for you with professional unattended death cleanup any time of day you may need us. We operate 24 hours for biohazard services. With compassion and respect, we will carefully remove all unsalvageable items that cannot be cleaned and meticulously clean everything we can save. We will then make sure every amount of fluid has been removed in whatever structural layers it has flowed into, then clean the entire area to make sure the space is restored and safe. Lastly, we use specialized SERVPRO products to remove any lingering odor. 

So, call us today, at 916-933-3890 for any biohazard-related needs or a death cleanup. We are available 365/24/7.

Coronavirus Cleaning in El Dorado County

3/16/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of El Dorado Hills/Placerville is Here to Help in El Dorado County.

Amid the recent scare regarding the Coronavirus outbreak all over the country and specifically here in Northern California, SERVPRO of El Dorado Hills/Placerville is your trusted bio-hazard cleanup company. Not only does SERVPRO have a national team working with the Centers for Disease Control developing and updating viral disinfection protocols, SERVPRO of El Dorado Hills/Placerville specifically has worked with the State of California Office of Emergency Services, Amador County Health and Human Services, and El Dorado County Health and Human Services on previous projects similar to this. SERVPRO of El Dorado Hills/Placerville has teams standing by with approved EPA-registered disinfectants and CDC-approved protocols for preventative cleaning, known contact, and confirmed Coronavirus COVID-19 cases. Below you will find an excerpt from SERVPRO’s protocol. Call our office today with any questions!

Our proactive cleanup protocol involves a customer that is requesting facility or structure cleaning and disinfection and the customer states that there is NO active known threat of SARS-CoV-2 contamination or exposure. Please note that these are general guidelines only. Building and spaces greatly differ. Each location will require individual planning, complete with on site inspection with necessary personnel.

• The CDC encourages cleaning of high touch surfaces such as counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, toilets, phones, keyboards, tablets, and tables at a minimum. These same surfaces are mentioned in the CDCs guidance for commercial spaces as well.
• Cleaning removes the soil and dirt that harbors the infectious agents, while disinfecting kills the remaining environmental pathogens. Cleaning is a necessary first step in disinfecting a surface. Both cleaning and disinfecting must be a part of the scope of work.
• Due to potential respiratory exposure to particulates, at a minimum a N-95 respirator should be worn by all cleanup personnel. Additionally, all cleanup personnel should wear nitrile gloves and goggles.
• Some materials cannot be cleaned with detergent and water without being damaged. For this reason, paper and paper products are not able to be cleaned and/or disinfected.
• Non-porous materials like hard surface floors, cabinets, countertops, doorknobs, and plumbing fixtures can be disinfected. 
• All used gloves and disposable respirators should be bagged within the work area.
• For business purposes, the CDC recommends routine environmental cleaning. This should include routinely cleaning all frequently touched surfaces in the workplace, such as workstations, countertops, and doorknobs; and provide disposable wipes so that commonly used surfaces (for example, doorknobs, keyboards, remote controls, desks) can be wiped down by employees before each use.
