Emergency Services
We understand disasters strike at the worst possible
times: after-hours, over the weekend or on a holiday.
That’s why Guarantee STOP is on-call 24/7, including
weekends and holidays to respond to all emergency
needs.
Emergencies require immediate attention to contain
the source of the damage, stabilize the property,

water damage
Removal of hazardous materials and sanitation of property after harmful
waste contamination, including sewage and blood borne pathogens
Security board-up of doors, windows, or structural openings following
a fire or vehicle impact

Our inventory of on-hand equipment includes over 130 air movers, 50 dehumidifiers, portable and truck-mounted extraction units, air scrubbers, HEPA vacuums, ionizers, and ozone machines.

Construction
As a full-service contractor, we have the ability to perform
complete construction repairs following all types of damages,
including water, fire, wind, tree and vehicle impact. Our
project managers, technicians and subcontractors are trained
restoration professionals. They specialize in the demolition,
cleaning and rebuilding of homes and offices, which can
be much different than building from the ground-up.
Too many times we’ve seen the restoration of someone’s
home go south because the contractor failed to plan. Our
project managers are required to plan every job from start
to finish before the job ever begins. Planning systems like daily team coordination meetings and a providing our customers with a Master Job Plan help control the job each step of the way.
Processing insurance claims can be challenging. We have
the experience, know-how, and relationships to smooth out
and speed up this process for you. We will work alongside
your insurance adjuster and within the insurance company’s
pricing standards and scope of work, so that we only do
and charge work that the insurance company will authorize
and fund. In the event additional work is requested, we
charge prices competitive in the open market.
We offer the following:
Signed work authorization/contract with customer
Full Xactimate scope of work for all repairs and damages

Biohazard
After any accident, crime or death involving biohazardous materials, it is imperative that these substances be effectively removed and the property be thoroughly cleaned, disinfected and deodorized. Failure to properly remove such substances can contribute to unhealthy and dangerous environments and pose serious health consequences.
Federal regulations consider all bodily fluids to be biohazards and are considered to be a potential source of infection. Special knowledge is required to safely
handle biohazardous material. In addition, it is crucial to know what to look for at the scene. In many cases, clean-up requires that walls and built-in structures be removed.
Guarantee Service Team of Professionals is capable and competent to deliver biohazard and trauma clean-up services. Our management and field staff are trained in customer sensitivity and efficiency. We have the expertise, equipment and chemicals to properly return a contaminated property to a clean, safe
environment.
Our biohazard clean-up services include the following:
Crime Scene Clean-up, Homicide
Accidental/Intentional Death, Suicide
Decontamination
Law Enforcement Vehicle Clean-up
Animal or Pet Waste
Human decomposition cleanup
Gross filth property cleanup
Industrial accident cleanup
Black water and sewage spill cleanup
Most insurance companies do cover this type of loss. We will work closely with your insurance company to ensure that your claim is handled quickly and properly.

Mold
In normal situations, mold can be completely harmless. While it’s not the “great killer” that many believe it to be, mold problems can be serious, and we take all mold situations seriously. Mold can cause both structural damage to buildings and serious health problems for humans.
We remedy mold contamination using several steps:
1. Containment
2. Reduction or elimination of moisture levels to prevent further mold growth
3. Removal of materials that have mold and fungi growth
4. Cleaning, disinfecting, and rebuilding the area if necessary
Our mold remediation specialists are experts in the latest mold removal techniques. We conduct tests after every remediation job to insure success.

Air Duct Cleaning
When it comes to your air ducts, you could say, “If it’s in your ducts, it’s in your lungs.” Even in homes where the air filter is changed regularly, dust and particles can gather in the system and ducts over time, resulting in decreased air quality and system performance.
In even worse cases, moisture can form in the system, creating a perfect environment for mold growth and a potentially hazardous living environment.
Many times after a building has suffered smoke damage, it is necessary that the air system be cleaned to remove soot and odor deposited by the smoke.
Duct cleaning can improve the energy efficiency of heating and cooling systems, lower your utility bill, reduce the likelihood that your system will need repair and increase the life span of your HVAC system. Furthermore, duct cleaning improves your indoor air quality by removing dust, mold, allergens and bacteria from your HVAC system.
In addition to normal accumulations of dust and dirt found in all homes through regular use, there are several other factors that can increase the need for duct cleaning, including:
Pets
Occupants with allergies
Cigarette or cigar smoke
Water contamination or damage to the home / HVAC system
Guarantee Service Team of Professionals has served the Baton Rouge area for residential, commercial and industrial indoor air quality needs since 1974. We are NADCA certified and comply with the NADCA code of ethics.
