Every job follows the same order. Assess the area, contain it, remove contaminated and hazardous materials, disinfect, treat odor and dispose of the waste under the rules. Crews are available 24/7 in Lakes East and throughout Western Connecticut Planning Region.
With roughly 1,227 residents, Lakes East is a small community, and biohazard cleanup is available here the same way it is in a big city. About 94% of homes in Lakes East were built before 1980, and older carpet, subfloor and wood trim absorb fluids deeply.
