How We Keep Our Greater Minneapolis Clients Safe 

Restoration 1 already takes precautionary measures whenever possible, with the recent spread of infection and disease, we have put in place the following additional precautionary measures: 

When an initial call takes place, our response team will ask additional questions to check if the owner of the property or business is unwell or any of its inhabitants or employees are unwell.

If this is the case, we will request that a healthy individual meets with us upon inspection.

• We come dressed in fully encapsulated personal protective equipment with full-face respirator masks.
• We handle hazardous and infectious biohazard waste, such as infected materials properly. 
• We use only CDC and IICRC certified sanitizing products
