Job completed for Michael T.- Chatham, NJ - Biohazard

Completion date: February 12, 2026

Location: Chatham, NJ

Solutions provided:

Michael T. contacted PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration after discovering a significant biohazard situation inside his Chatham, NJ home that required immediate professional attention. The loss was caused by a severe sewage backup that spread contaminated water and hazardous waste across the hardwood flooring and surrounding contents. In Chatham, NJ, sewage removal and biohazard clean-up must be handled with strict safety protocols to prevent exposure to harmful bacteria and pathogens. Our team performed emergency Sewage Removal, removing contaminated debris, extracting black water, and isolating affected materials to prevent cross-contamination throughout the Chatham, NJ property. High-touch surfaces, flooring, and porous materials were assessed for Category 3 water damage, and compromised materials were safely disposed of following industry-standard biohazard clean-up procedures. The homeowner’s insurance policy covered the sewage backup and associated disinfecting service, helping to streamline the restoration process in Chatham, NJ.

Once containment was established in Chatham, NJ, our certified technicians conducted a full Disinfecting Service using hospital-grade antimicrobial treatments to neutralize bacteria, viruses, and odor-causing contaminants. Specialized equipment, including HEPA air scrubbers and negative air machines, was deployed throughout the Chatham, NJ residence to ensure proper air filtration and environmental safety during the trauma clean-up and sewage removal process. All affected hardwood flooring showing visible contamination was carefully cleaned, sanitized, and evaluated for structural integrity due to prolonged exposure to biohazardous materials. Moisture detection tools were used to verify that no hidden contamination remained beneath the subflooring in the Chatham, NJ home. Detailed documentation was provided for the biohazard clean-up and sewage removal to support the insurance claim and confirm regulatory compliance. The project concluded with thorough deodorization and final clearance testing to restore safe, habitable conditions inside the Chatham, NJ property.
