Category 3 contamination needs full protective equipment and EPA-registered disinfection, not a household cleaner and a mop. Your trained crew handles it safely from start to finish.
Live dispatcher answers 24/7. Certified crew on the way to your Lancaster property as soon as one is available.
Dri-Eaz LGR dehumidifiers, Velo PRO air movers, and FLIR thermal imaging on every truck.
Fast extraction and structured drying stop mold before it starts, typically within 24 to 48 hours.
FLIR thermal mapping and moisture meters document every affected zone for your insurance adjuster.
The area is contained and the crew puts on full protective equipment before entry.
Contaminated material is removed and disposed of according to safety protocols.
Every affected surface is treated with EPA-registered disinfectants.
We confirm the area meets safety standards before calling the job complete.
Category 3 water, which includes sewage and floodwater left untreated for more than 24 hours, carries bacteria and pathogens that pose a real health risk. Your crew handles removal and disinfection with the protective equipment and EPA-registered products this work requires, separate from the general drying scope of a sewage cleanup job.
Biohazard contamination isn't something to handle yourself. A real person answers your call, and a trained crew arrives with the right protective equipment.
Live dispatcher every call, day or night. No voicemail, no answering service.
IICRC-certified technicians with WRT and ASD credentials on every job.
From extraction to mold prevention, one crew handles the full restoration process.
Locally operated in Lancaster, not a franchise call center. We're trained to handle Category 3 contamination safely, whatever the source.
Two situations bring most of our biohazard cleanup calls.
Problem: Sewage contamination carries bacteria that make DIY cleanup genuinely risky to your health.
Our Solution: We contain the area, remove contaminated material, and disinfect with EPA-registered products before drying begins.
Problem: Any Category 1 or 2 water left untreated for more than 24 hours is reclassified as Category 3 black water under IICRC standards.
Our Solution: We treat it with the same full protective protocol as a direct sewage event, since the contamination risk is the same.
No. Category 3 contamination carries bacteria and pathogens that require protective equipment and proper disposal procedures. We strongly recommend against attempting it yourself.
Cost depends on the contamination scope and material affected. Call (972) 630-6656 for a free, in-person estimate.
It depends on the cause and your specific policy. We document the cause and damage to support your claim either way.
Containment and initial removal often happen the same day. Full clearance depends on the scope of contamination.
