Planning & Organization

To begin, we provide a full assessment of the incident and the area(s) affected. We will determine the level of containment needed and inform you of the plan of action. 

Safety as a Priority

It is key to perform biohazard removal with special attention to safety and industry and OSHA standards. Our trained technicians wear special personal protective equipment to keep themselves safe. They also contain the area, taking the appropriate steps to keep you and your family or employees safe as well. 

Medical Waste Removal

Hazardous medical waste, such as spinal fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, and other bodily fluids, is handled following OSHA regulations. It’s then sent to a licensed hazardous medical waste incinerator. If there are area of medical waste, we will section the area from the rest of the home, so only professionals wearing sufficient PPE.

Thorough Cleanup & Decontamination

All affected porous material will be removed in accordance with industry standards and Indiana state regulations. All other infectious material will be safely discarded as well.  For non-porous surfaces, we will dry the affected area before applying a disinfectant. After allowing the materials to soak, we scrub, repeating the process to disinfect the space.

Deodorization

Typically, once the biohazard area is cleaned and sanitized, the odors dissipate. However, our crew will determine whether further deodorization is necessary. If we do need to complete a deodorization, we use hydroxyls or ozone to ensure the odor is gone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our services

Property damage restoration is the process of repairing and restoring a
property after it has been affected by property damage, such as water, fire,
mold, or biohazard. The goal is to mitigate further damage and clean and
restore the property to its pre-loss condition as quickly and efficiently as
possible.

Yes! Even minor property damage can lead to long-term issues like structural damage and reduced property value. Professional restorers, like PuroClean Franchise Owners and their teams, are licensed, trained, and trusted to handle property restoration for both residential and commercial properties. They are equipped to mitigate damage from everyday events such as water, fire, mold, and biohazards, as well as severe damage from weather emergencies. Hiring a professional restoration company ensures effective, long-lasting results, preventing further complications and minimizing disruption to your property. Attempting DIY repairs or relying on small-scale contractors can lead to hidden damage and future complications, often without proper insurance coverage.

These terms are often used interchangeably, but actually each refers to a different stage of the recovery process. Mitigation aims to reduce or prevent further damage, such as extracting water or stopping fire spread. Remediation focuses on removing contaminants or hazards (like mold or asbestos) to ensure the safety of the environment. Restoration involves repairing and rebuilding the property to return it to its pre-damaged condition. Each process plays a vital role in bringing a property back to its original state, ensuring safety, and minimizing future damage.

The cost of property damage restoration varies widely based on factors such as the type and extent of damage, the size of the property, and the required services. PuroClean of Schererville utilizes industry-standard pricing systems to ensure consistency and fairness across the company’s network of franchises, helping determine accurate pricing for property restoration services. According to a Forbes Home report, “the average cost of water damage restoration is between $1,300 and $5,600. It’s not a cheap service, but it’s critical in many situations.” Forbes Home also notes that the “national average of fire damage repair for a house is $12,900… minor fire emergency restoration in part of your home can cost as little as $1,200 while whole-home repairs that include kitchen restoration or roof replacement cost up to $72,300.” Insurance coverage plays a significant role in how much a property owner ultimately pays, as many policies may cover part or all of the restoration costs depending on the type of damage. For an accurate estimate, it’s best to consult a restoration professional like PuroClean of Schererville.

Yes! PuroClean of Schererville offers 24/7 emergency services, 365 days a year including holidays and weekends, to mitigate property damage disasters. Quick response is crucial to minimize further damage and assist property owners in getting back to normal as quickly as possible, reducing stress and uncertainty.
