Post-disaster cleaning in Geneva & Lausanne
After water damage, a fire or flooding, every hour counts to limit the damage. Parfanet responds in emergencies across the Lake Geneva region to sanitise, dry and deodorise your premises, in coordination with your insurer.
Act fast to limit the damage
A disaster does not stop the moment the water stops flowing or the flames are out: residual moisture, acidic soot and bacterial contamination continue to degrade the building and furniture for days. On the shores of Lake Geneva, rising damp and flooded cellars demand a fast reaction to avoid mould and irreversible structural damage.
Parfanet mobilises emergency response teams in Geneva and Lausanne, able to assess the situation, secure the premises and start drying as quickly as possible. Our priority is to stop the spread of damage before launching the deep clean.
From sanitisation to full restoration
Depending on the nature of the disaster, we combine water pumping and extraction, removal of unrecoverable materials, soot cleaning, surface disinfection and deep deodorising. Drying is managed using dehumidifiers and moisture readings until a healthy level returns.
We work in close coordination with insurers, property managers and appointed experts. Our photographic reports and readings document the extent of the damage and the operations carried out, a valuable support for managing your compensation claim in Geneva and in the canton of Vaud.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly do you respond after a disaster?
We prioritise fast mobilisation, because every hour counts to limit the spread of damage. As soon as you call, we organise an emergency call-out in Geneva or Lausanne to assess the situation, secure the premises and start pumping or drying.
Do you work directly with my insurer?
Yes. We are used to coordinating our interventions with insurers, property managers and appointed experts. Our photographic reports and moisture readings document the extent of the damage and the operations carried out, which facilitates the management of your compensation claim.
How do you handle odours after a fire?
Fire soot is acidic and strongly odorous. After removing residue and cleaning surfaces, we carry out deep deodorising to neutralise the odours embedded in the materials, rather than simply masking them.
Do you handle drying after water damage?
Yes. Drying is an essential step: we set up dehumidifiers and monitor the moisture level with regular readings until a healthy level returns. Incomplete drying exposes you to mould and delayed structural damage.
Can you treat a flooded cellar or basement?
Yes. Cellars and basements are frequently affected during heavy rain or backflow, particularly in buildings close to Lake Geneva. We handle pumping, water extraction, surface disinfection and complete drying of the affected volume.
Do you also work at night and on weekends?
A disaster does not choose its timing. We organise emergency interventions outside business hours when the situation requires it, to stop the spread of damage as quickly as possible and protect your building.
