What Malabar Property Owners Ask About Decontamination
What is considered a biological hazard?
A biological hazard is any living organism or material from one that can harm health. Examples are bacteria, viruses, mold, blood, bodily fluids, sewage and animal waste. Chemicals and radiation are a different type of hazard.
Can carpet and mattresses be saved?
Sometimes, but often not. Porous materials soak up fluids, and germs can remain deep inside where disinfectant cannot reach. The team looks at each item and explains which can be saved. Items that cannot be cleaned are removed, sealed and hauled away.
Does insurance cover decontamination?
Sometimes. Some homeowners and renters policies cover cleanup after a covered event, and some exclude certain causes. Call the insurance company before work starts, take photos and keep every receipt. Ask the team whether it can supply paperwork.
Do I need to be home during the work?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call.
