Why It Matters in Los Gatos
Decomposition releases bacteria and gases, and fluids can reach subflooring and units below. Cleaning only the surface usually leaves odor and contamination behind, which can affect resale, rental and health.
DIY cleanup can spread pathogens such as hepatitis B and C into other rooms. Providers serving Los Gatos use respirators, protective suits and hospital-grade disinfectants to protect everyone in the building.
