Bio-hazard cleaning – why and what?

Pic Credits: https://goo.gl/1fo6LF

Mention the term bio-hazard, and we think of a risk to human health or the environment arising from biological work, especially with microorganisms. In simple words, if any living organism comes in contact with a biological hazard, it can pose a threat to its health.

We might know what a bio-hazard material is and what the causes are for it.

But do you know what is involved in a bio-hazard clean-up? If you do, Great! If not, then go ahead and read this blog.

When a bio-hazard clean-up takes place, the situation is completely assessed with caution and all items like carpet, furniture, wallpaper, etc. are removed and dealt with carefully. They get disposed of in biohazard bags at a federal and state regulated site for disposal. If you think wearing a safety gear is enough to take up the task for a bio-hazard cleaning then you’re wrong, because no family member, colleague or regular cleaner is trained to deal with biohazardous situations. A professional however will have bloodborne pathogen (BBP) training, own protective gear, would be receiving regular inoculation of Hepatitis B vaccine and exposure evaluation.

Therefore bio-hazard cleaning is no layman's task and requires well trained and equipped professionals. Bio Cleanse Services is a company dedicated to clean and remediate the affected area by following strict guidelines in the clean-up, removal, and disposal of biohazardous and bio-medical waste.

How smoke impacts your house

A devastating experience like a house fire can be overwhelming, making it hard for residents to deal with the aftermath. However, it is important to ensure that the house is safe, cleaned and repaired to avoid any further damages. In a stressful time like this, it's always good to bank on the services of a professional cleaning company to remediate and restore your house.

Even after the fire has been put out, there's a lot of toxic residue, smoke and soot all over the place that can have a bad impact on your health and your house. While some damages are clearly visible, there are few that take a while to show.

Stains:

After a fire, the house is all covered in ash and smoke residue which leads to discolouration of ceilings, walls, and other surfaces. Metal items start to rust and corrode, and plastic items start to turn yellow. Due to the acidic presence in soot, the tiles get stained permanently.

Strong Odour:

The smoke particles produce a strong smoky odour that can linger for long as it embeds itself in walls, carpets, upholstery, furniture, surfaces and other porous materials. This can be treated by detecting the source of the odour, cleaning and deodorising the entire area. Ignoring this may lead to respiratory problems.

Internal Damage:

If the house is not cleaned and remediated early, the soot and smoke particles will penetrate surfaces and destruct the house structure or framework, insulation, ducts, and vents.

Electrical Damage:

In a house fire, there is some amount of damage done to the electrical system. Electrical parts like switches, wiring, fuses, circuits, outlets

and light fixture boxes may get damaged. Hardwired appliances may not function properly and also start to corrode.

If you ever find yourself stuck in a situation like this and wondering how to fix the fire damage, do not worry, give us a call and we shall clean and remediate it all.
