Unattended Death Cleanup

7/13/2016 (Permalink)

No one wants to do what you’re about to do. You have to face an unattended death, and you’re overwhelmed. How in the world will you clean this up?

SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge can help. We’re experts in the cleanup of unattended deaths, and no matter how long the situation has gone unrecognized, we know what to do. There are consequences to biological contamination beyond stains and odors; we know how to account for them and make your environment safe again.

Dealing with a body means dealing with the possible spread of diseases, some of which may be life-threatening. Swine flu, E. coli, MRSA, hepatitis — all these diseases are blood-borne, and some of them can stay in affected environments for years before they become active. Protecting you from them is our responsibility. That’s sanitization and disinfection.

Because even small traces of biological contamination can present these risks, we don’t stop until a scene is safe, even if that means the removal of sections of carpet, flooring, or other materials. Also, emergency services are under no obligation to help you remove traces of fingerprint powder, broken glass, or any other foreign material at a crime scene — but we are. That’s remediation.

SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge takes our responsibility to sanitize, disinfect and remediate your home, business or vehicle very seriously, and we communicate how and why we’re doing so throughout the whole process. That’s why we’re Northeastern Pennsylvania's premier crime scene cleanup and biohazard remediation company. Call us at (570) 235-1646 for 24/7 emergency service. When you need to deal with an unattended death and you’re asking yourself, “What now?” — trust SERVPRO of Carbondale/Clarks Summit/Old Forge anywhere in the Scranton area to answer the question.
