At ServiceMaster Restore, we understand the importance of proper cleanup and disinfection when it comes to biohazardous materials and pathogens. That is why our highly trained technicians use industry expertise, specialized products and equipment to properly remove biological waste. We take all necessary precautions to prevent the spread of infectious contamination, including isolating the affected area, removing unsalvageable items, and thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting every surface. Our team follows strict protocols and uses Health Canada approved disinfectants to ensure that all affected areas are completely sanitized. You can trust us to leave your commercial business safe and free from any potential health hazards.
Hard surfaces can be cleaned and sanitized after water damage occurs. Affected items that cannot be sanitized will require disposal. Porous materials such as drywall, ceiling tiles, insulation, particleboard, paneling, etc. that have been directly affected by the damage should be removed during the emergency service visit.
After fire and smoke damage in your home, we do not recommend you attempt any “do-it-yourself” cleaning methods without first consulting your ServiceMaster Restore qualified Restoration Technician. Pre-testing, using the right cleaning agent for particular items, mixing deodourizing agents with cleaning solutions and using correct dilution ratios are just some of the ways an expert fire restoration technician attains professional and controlled results. Professional cleaning systems and products used by experienced, trained technicians give you the best chance for successful restoration of your property and belongings.
