FIREMEN WITH FIRE DAMAGE

11/15/2021 (Permalink)

Before SERVPRO comes, the true heroes put out the fire first. However, they often must break windows and cut holes in the roof of buildings on fire. As a fire burns, the fire moves up and down and across, growing very fast. Firefighters break windows and cut holes in roofs to provide ventilation that slows the fire’s growth. Ventilation also helps get rid of dark smoke that makes it hard for firefighters to see where they’re going. The holes and broken windows help firefighters fight the fire more quickly. The bottom line is that breaking windows and cutting holes in roofs help save lives and property. Firefighters will also cut holes in walls at times. That’s not about ventilation. It’s done so the fire department is sure that the fire is completely out. Fire departments don’t want to risk leaving a fire that’s not visible but is still active inside the walls or in other hidden places

DOES YOUR BUSINESS HAVE A SAFETY PROTOCOL?

11/1/2021 (Permalink)

The best way to reduce interruption to your business following a disaster is to plan for it now! It is estimated that as many as 50% of businesses may never recover following a disaster. Of the ones that do, an overwhelming majority of them had preparedness plans in place. 

By developing a SERVPRO® Emergency READY Profile for your business, you minimize business interruption by having an immediate plan of action. Knowing what to do and what to expect in advance is the key to timely mitigation and can help minimize how water and fire damage can affect your business.

Most contingency plans are made up of three main components: incident response, disaster recovery, and business continuity. The SERVPRO® ERP addresses incident response and disaster recovery. Think about potential disasters that could affect your facility. Now ask yourself: Are you ready?

Our SERVPRO® Emergency READY Profile is a start-up approach that provides important information needed to begin mitigation and recovery services.

Why the SERVPRO® ERP?

• A no cost assessment of your facility
  
  
  
  • This means there is no need to allocate funds, giving you a great value at no cost.
  
  
  

• A concise Profile Document that contains only the critical information needed in the event of an emergency. 
  
  
  • It will only take a little time to complete and will not take you away from current projects. But it will save a lot of time if ever needed.
  
  
  

• A guide to help you get back into your building following a disaster. 
  
  
  • This can help minimize the amount of time your business is inactive by having an immediate plan of action.
  
  
  

• Establishes SERVPRO® of South Burlington County as your disaster mitigation and restoration provider. 
  
  
  • You have a provider that is recognized as an industry leader and close by.
  
  
  

• Identification of the line of command for authorizing work to begin. 
  
  
  • This saves time so we can begin the work of mitigating the damage which can save you time and money
  
  
  

• Provides facility details such as shut-off valve locations, priority areas and priority contact information. 
  
  
  • Having a quick reference of what to do, how to do it and who to call provides solutions in advance of an emergency so that during the emergency you are “Ready for whatever happens.”

MOLD IN YOUR HOME?

10/29/2021 (Permalink)

Mold growth can be a nightmare for homeowners. That's why it is important to know the signs of mold so you can stop it before it spreads too far. Most of the time, once the mold has become visible on the surface, it has been growing behind the scenes for quite some time. Make sure you know the signs to look for BEFORE that mold becomes visible. 

If you notice a strange odor, that could be a sign of mold. If an area of your home is giving off a persistent must smell, there is a strong possibility that there is mold in the room. You can typically follow the smell to where it is strongest in the room and find the mold.

Condensation can also be a tell-tale sign of possible mold. It can be excess moisture on windows, or condensation dripping from pipes. If there is excess moisture in your home, that is often a sign that mold may be growing somewhere you can't see. 

A water damage in your home can also lead to mold growth. If there was a leaking pipe or appliance that went unnoticed for some time, there may be mold present. Mold can start to grow as soon as 48 hours after moisture has been present, so if you suspect that you had an ongoing leak, you may want to have a professional inspect for mold. 

If you do suspect your home has mold, give SERVPRO of South Burlington County a call for an inspection 856-988-6195.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE A FIRE

BATHROOM CLEANING WE DID IN A RESTURANT

Step 1: Emergency Contact

The restoration process begins when you call the SERVPRO National Call Center.

Step 2: Inspection and Fire Damage Assessment

Our Professionals will carefully inspect and test the rooms of your property to determine the extent of the fire, smoke, and soot damage. 

Step 3: Immediate Board-Up and Roof-Tarp Service

Fire damage will often compromise windows, walls, and roofs. To maintain security and to protect against further damage, the SERVPRO Franchise Professional can board up missing windows and walls and place tarps on damaged roofs.

Step 4: Water Removal and Drying (if water damage is present)

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. They will then use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove the remaining water and complete the drying process.

Step 5: Removal of Smoke and Soot from All Surfaces

The SERVPRO Franchise Professionals use specialized equipment and techniques to remove smoke and soot from ceilings, walls, and other surfaces.

Step 6: Cleaning and Sanitizing

What is a Water Damage?

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

The term water damage describes various possible losses caused by water intruding where it will enable attack of a material or system by destructive processes such as rotting of wood, growth, rusting of steel, de-laminating of materials such as plywood, and many others. The damage may be slow and minor such as water spots that could eventually mar a surface, or it may be instantaneous and catastrophic such as flooding. However fast it occurs, water damage is a major contributor to loss of property.

What about my insurance?

An insurance policy may or may not cover the costs associated with water damage and the process of water damage restoration. While a common cause of residential water damage is often the failure of a sump pump, many homeowner's insurance policies do not cover the associated costs without an addendum which adds to the monthly premium of the policy. Often the verbiage of this addendum is similar to "Sewer and Drain Coverage".

Flood Insurance

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

If a monsoon or some other storm floods your area and causes water or mud damage inside your home, you won't be covered when you don't have special insurance coverage. You can buy this coverage from the National Flood Insurance Program via your insurance agent. You might have been told all about this when you bought your house. If you are in a flood-prone area, you can't get a home loan without buying this insurance. If your home or someone elses you know suffer from a storm damage, SERVPRO of South Burlington County is here for you. We offer free estimates and a crew of highly trained professionals. We are trained to handle storm damages from little to catastrophic at any occasion. Call us today at 856-988-6195.  

Roof Vents and Stroms

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

A roof inspection is smart and ideal after your home is affected by high winds, storm debris, and hail. If your shingles or other roofing materials have sustained minimal or no damage, you may believe that your home is in the clear. However, your roof vents can be severely damaged by hail and other storm-related forces even when the roof survives unscathed. Examine all roof vents for damage after strong storms to ensure their proper function.

Roof vents suffer storm-related problems including:

• Blockage from storm debris
• Loss of water seal from damaged flashing
• Disconnection from vent pipe or duct
• Compression from hailstorm or tree limbs
• Exposure from missing vent caps and covers

When you aren't sure how your roof vents should normally look and operate, you can hire a qualified roofing contractor to inspect these components.

Commercial Fires

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, as many as one in four businesses that suffer some kind of fire disaster do not reopen afterward. It’s true, overcoming a major loss is extremely difficult, but with the right restoration company like SERVPRO of South Burlington County the chance of your  company surviving is pretty high! Depending on the size of the fire, and the amount of damage, some businesses that have come to Total Restoration for help have reopened just daysafter the fire happened. Thanks to innovations in smoke odor removal, fire damage restoration, and cleaning in general, it is possible for our crew to start work nearly immediately after the fire department clears the scene, and have things back up and running in no time.

Percentage of Commercial Fires

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

Percentage of commercial fire causes 

• 29% were caused by cooking equipment. However, just 6% of these fires caused actual property damage.
• Intentionally-set fires caused the most direct property damage – 21%.
• Electrical equipment is the second leading cause of office fires.
• Just 2% of office fires start in a concealed space like an attic, in the ceiling, or in another conceals space. However, these fires accounted for 13% of the direct property damage.

Time of day most of these fires happen

• Peak time of day for office fires: Noon – 2p.m. (a.k.a. lunch time!)
• 69% happened between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
• The 31% that occurred between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. caused 67% of recorded property damage, because they went undetected longer. This also highlights the need for automatic detection equipment and working sprinkler systems.
• 19% of fires happened on weekends

Fire Damage Facts

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

Here are some facts about fire we think you should know. 

• In a fire, more people die from inhaling smoke than from the flames. Never think that if you avoid the flames you are safe. Always keep away from smoke.
• Soot is a coating of fine, black dust created when wood, coal, or oil-based substances are burned.  These carbon particles float into the air and settle anywhere.  Inhaling soot can caused severe lung deficiencies or even death. 
• The worst possible effect of soot is its tendency to cause cancer and cause serious defects in  newborns. Soot produces polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons are responsible for gene mutation for particular groups of genes. They can cause birth defects and increase the chances of getting cancer.

Firemen and Fire Damages

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

Before SERVPRO comes, the true heroes put out the fire first. However, they often must break windows and cut holes in the roof of buildings on fire. As a fire burns, the fire moves up and down and across, growing very fast. Firefighters break windows and cut holes in roofs to provide ventilation that slows the fire’s growth. Ventilation also helps get rid of dark smoke that makes it hard for firefighters to see where they’re going. The holes and broken windows help firefighters fight the fire more quickly. The bottom line is that breaking windows and cutting holes in roofs help save lives and property. Firefighters will also cut holes in walls at times. That’s not about ventilation. It’s done so the fire department is sure that the fire is completely out. Fire departments don’t want to risk leaving a fire that’s not visible but is still active inside the walls or in other hidden places

Why choose SERVPRO with your water damage?

2/21/2020 (Permalink)

Besides causing a major business interruption, a mold problem can present a serious health risk for your employees exposed at your commercial property. This can cause many issues.

Water Restoration Process.

2/11/2020 (Permalink)

Below is the process that you will most likely go through during a water restoration. Every water damage event is a little different, and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. 

1.) Emergency Contact 

When you call, our specialist will guide you through several questions that will help the SERVPRO Franchise Professional respond to your water emergency more quickly and efficiently. This initial contact is an important part of a fast, effective restoration.

2.) Inspection and Water Damage Assessment

They carefully inspect your property’s water damage, determining the type of water damage and the areas affected. This is a crucial step to creating an effective plan of action that will result in a successful restoration.

3.) Water Removal

Typically, hundreds or thousands of gallons of water are removed using our powerful pumps and vacuums during the water removal process. The SERVPRO Franchise Professionals start this process as soon as possible to minimize further damage and to help prevent mold growth.

4.) Drying and Dehumidification

After the bulk of the water has been removed, SERVPRO Franchise Professionals use specialized equipment to target the water that’s harder to access. They use less intrusive, scientific drying methods to draw the remaining water and moisture from your property with air movers and dehumidifiers.

5.) Cleaning

Water damage also affects your belongings, like furniture, clothing, and personal items. SERVPRO Franchise Professionals can clean restorable items using a number of specialized cleaning techniques. They also sanitize with antimicrobial treatments and remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

6.) Restoration

The last step is restoring your home or business back to its pre-water damage condition. The restoration step can be relatively minor, such as replacing a few drywall panels, or could include major reconstruction, such as rebuilding entire rooms of a home or business.

Don't Let a Space Heater Set a Fire in Your Household.

1/30/2020 (Permalink)

This space heater caught on fire causing the whole room to start burning down in flames.

Statistically there are about 25,000 residential fires a year in the United States from the use of space heaters in the home. Space heaters should be setup at least a three feet away from any thing that can catch fire such as furniture, boxes, paper or other combustible items. Check your space heater equipment often and clean it regularly. New space heaters have more safety features then old ones. It is a good idea to unplugged the space heater  whenever not in use or when you leave your home.  Cleaning your space heater can be done by blowing compressed air throughout the inside and vents to get rid of dust and debris that may accumulate and wiping down where you can. Stay safe and stay warm throughout the winter. 

Sewer Line Backup

1/30/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO can help you 24/7

Sewage backups can ruin your day. Raw sewage can contain some really bad things, even more so if you’re downstream from a hospital or health clinic. The EPA has a long of nasty things that can be in the black water of a sewer line that has been damaged. Horrible things like typhoid fever, cholera, hepatitis A, polio viruses, and helminths! Helminths are parasitic worms that feed off of the host (you) and are also known as intestinal worms. So if you can help it, don’t even walk through the affected area and keep pets away. It is highly recommended you do not go near the sewage line backup at all. Get your local SERVPRO to do the job for you, we are trained for these types of situations. 

What to do after a fire damage

1/30/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO can handle any fire!

• Open up your doors and windows: Assuming that the weather permits it, open the doors and windows in your home to help air out your home and remove the smell of smoke. 
• Clean what you need to: Any items and fixtures that are made of plastic, chrome, porcelain, and aluminum need to be cleaned immediately after the fire. Otherwise, the tarnishing and etching left behind may become permanent and the item may have to be replaced.
• Use damp cloth over return and supply air registers: This will help catch any loose soot drifting through your home. Even if we clean your home entirely, there may still be a few flecks of soot through the air for a short period of time.
• change the air filter on your furnace: Unfortunately, many furnaces use forced air to circulate through the home. When your filter is full of soot and germs from the fire, you will want to ensure that it won’t be dispersing these contaminants through your home.

What not to do after a fire damage

1/30/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO can handle any fire!

• Don’t clean by yourself in general: You may be confident in your ability to clean your carpets and your upholstery, but fire damage can leave behind greater issues than your everyday cleaning supplies can handle. Only professional level tools can tackle these.
• Don’t wash the walls by yourself: While soot may look easy to wipe off, it can actually make a bigger mess if you do not have the proper tools and supplies.
• Don’t touch anything with your bare hands: Your hands have oils on them which can often worsen a situation when you touch the walls or certain fabrics.
• Don’t go back into your home until it’s all clear: Make sure that a professional has confirmed that it is safe for you and your family to enter your home again. Walls, floors, and other fixtures may not be stable and could potentially collapse.

How to save water damaged paper

1/30/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO will help save any water damaged properties!

Following these steps in order can help save your important paper work that has been damaged by a water loss. 

• Carefully move papers to a dry area. It is essential to remove papers from the water as soon as possible.
• Place individual sheets onto plain paper towels and put into direct sunlight.
• To dry books, place paper towels in between the pages and lay the book flat to give its pages room to breathe. Place a paper towel about every twenty pages or so. 
• Place a fan near the papers but face it up and away. This is a slow process, but it is necessary to properly dry your papers. Use a real fan, not a hairdryer or other substitute.
• Place paperweights on the edges of each paper to prevent curling.

Five Tips To Help Prevent Fires This Fall

1/14/2020 (Permalink)

Bonfires. S’more’s. Hot chocolate. Fall decor. Football. Pumpkin spice. And everything nice. All the reasons many people love fall. Sure, fall decor complements your abode, but if you aren’t careful, it can be a safety hazard. A fire can strike your home or business at any given moment, but it doesn’t have to. Prevention is key. In this blog, you will learn about five tips to help prevent fires this fall. However, if it does occur, the fire damage and restoration specialist at SERVPRO® of South Burlington County can be at your residential or commercial property to make the damage “Like it never even happened.” 

Five tips to help prevent fires this fall:   

1. Fall decorations, like dried flowers and cornstalks, are highly flammable. Keep these and other decorations away from open flames and heat sources, including light bulbs and heaters.
2. Keep emergency exits clear of decorations so nothing blocks escape routes.
3. Teach children to stay away from open flames. Be sure they know how to stop, drop, and roll if their clothing catches fire.
4. Remember safety first when choosing a Halloween costume. Consider avoiding billowing fabric. If you are making your costume, choose a material that won’t easily ignite if it comes into contact with heat or a flame.
5. It is safest to use a flashlight or battery-operated candle in a Jacko- lantern. Use extreme caution if using a real candle. Place lit pumpkins away from anything that can burn and out of the way of doorsteps, walkways, and yards.

Difference in Mold Damage and Mildew Damage

1/14/2020 (Permalink)

Have you ever wondered, “What is the difference in mold damage and mildew damage?” Both can have similar characteristics, but they are far from being the same. Don’t confuse mold with mildew. SERVPRO® of South Burlington County can help educate you on this topic. 

Here are some similarities and differences in mold and mildew: 

Similarities:

• Keen on moisture
• Can grow on surfaces (food, shower, walls, etc.)
• Both are a fungi 

Differences:

• Size
• Color
• Texture 

According to HGTV, “mildew is a surface fungi that can easily be identified as a patch of gray or even white fungus that is lying on the surface of a moist area. Mildew is easily treated with a store-bought cleaner and a scrubbing brush.”

“Mold, on the other hand, can be black or green and is often the result of a much larger infestation. This type of fungus can appear almost "fuzzy" — especially when it is found on food — or even slimy in nature.”

Speaking of mold, a common misconception that many people have is that bleach can kill mold. This is a myth. 

Something else we’d like to educate you on is mold removal and mold remediation. There are clear differences. If you spot signs of mold, you’ll want to get a professional out to your home or business as quickly as possible. Because mold growth can start in as little as 48 hours. 

Now that you know the difference in mold damage and mildew damage, if you happen to have mold damage at your residential or commercial property, count on the heroes of SERVPRO® of South Burlington County, who are your local mold remediation and restoration specialists. When you’re ready for us to make that damage Like it never even happened,® just email us at SERVPRO8494@GMAIL.COM  Or give us a call at 856-988-6195.

Do's and Dont's During a Fire Damage

1/2/2019 (Permalink)

What To Do After A Fire

• Limit movement in the home to prevent soot particles from being embedded into upholstery and carpets.
• Keep hands clean so as not to further soil upholstery, walls and woodwork.
• Place clean towels or old linens on rugs, upholstery and carpet traffic areas.
• If electricity is off, empty freezer and refrigerator and prop doors open.
• Clean and protect chrome with light coating of petroleum jelly or oil.
• Wash houseplants on both sides of leaves.
• Change HVAC filter.
• Tape double layers of cheesecloth over air registers.

What NOT To Do After A Fire

• Don't attempt to wash any walls or painted surfaces or shampoo carpet or upholstery without contacting us.
• Don't attempt to clean any electrical appliances that may have been close to fire, heat or water without consulting an authorized repair service.
• Don't use any canned or packaged food or beverages that may have been stored near the fire, heat or water.
• Don't turn on ceiling fixtures if ceiling is wet. The wiring may be damaged.
• Don't send garments to an ordinary dry cleaner. Improper cleaning may set smoke odor.

Fire Cleaning From SERVPRO

1/2/2019 (Permalink)

We offer a range of specialized cleaning methods:

• Bonnet Cleaning: A less aggressive method for short piled carpets.
• Hot Water Extraction: A deeper cleaning method for all carpet types.
• Deluxe Precondition and Rinse: Helps restore deeply soiled areas.
• Showcase Premier Cleaning: The most thorough cleaning method in the industry.
• Dry Cleaning: When color-fastness is an issue.

Our professional cleaning can address moderate and heavy soil conditions in your carpets. How often you’ll need professional cleaning depends on soil build-up, traffic, type and color of carpeting. A good rule of thumb would be to professionally clean your carpet every 12 months. The best advice is to clean carpets before they become totally saturated with soil. If you wait until carpets look really dirty, the carpets may never be restored to their former appearance. Dirt builds up in layers, and when a carpet looks dirty you are only seeing the dirt at the tips of the fibers. More dirt is hiding below the surface down near the base of the pile, causing damage to the carpet. When a carpet is saturated with dirt, the soil has penetrated crevices and has become firmly lodged.

Stachybotrys chartarum is the type of mold often called black mold, and it does produce allergens and irritants. However, many types of mold can produce allergens and irritants. Treat any mold with caution – stay out of affected areas and don’t touch or disturb the mold.

How Do I Tell If It’s Black Mold?

Understanding Mold

When water intrudes into your property, mold growth can start in as little as 48 hours. Consider the following mold facts:

• Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
• Mold spores are microscopic, float along in the air, and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
• Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
• Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise the mold may return.
• Mold often produces a strong, musty odor, and that odor can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
• Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.

Frozen Pipes

Extreme cold weather can cause pipes to freeze and burst. In general, pipes are more likely to freeze when the temperature is below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. The resulting water damage can be extensive. Outdoor pipes and pipes in unheated areas of the home can freeze if they are not properly insulated or if temperatures are severely cold. SERVPRO Franchise Professionals can quickly and safely repair water damage caused by frozen pipes.

Outdoor pipes most likely to freeze include:

• Outdoor hose bibs
• Swimming pool supply lines
• Water sprinkler lines

Pipes in unheated or partially heated areas are also at risk of freezing, including:

• Basements
• Crawl spaces
• Garages

Ice Dams

An ice dam is formed when snow melts unevenly on a roof and refreezes into a dam at the edge of the roof, near the eaves. This dam prevents any further snowmelt from draining off of the roof. This standing water can back up under shingles, leak into a home, and cause significant water damage to ceilings, walls, and other areas. Ice dams can also tear off gutters and loosen shingles.

Roof Damage

Snow and ice can cause significant damage to your gutters and roof. The additional weight of snow and ice can even cause a roof to collapse. When there’s a cold snap, water can get into cracks and small spaces and expand when it freezes, causing larger cracks and more damage. The repetition of freezing and thawing cycles can cause small cracks to get larger.

SERVPRO^® suggests the following steps to help minimize additional damage to your property while waiting for disaster professionals to arrive.

• If the water has entered the structure through the flooding of a creek, stream or river, or if it has filtered through insulation during its intrusion, it is considered to be black water and could be hazardous to your health. Avoid contact with contaminated items as much as possible.
• Take the greatest caution while entering your home, and wear sturdy shoes and protective clothing when dealing with flooded areas.
• Do not attempt to operate any electrical equipment while standing in wet or damp locations.
• Throw away all foods—even canned goods—that have come into contact with flood waters.
• Remove and prop wet upholstery and pillow cushions for drying. Wipe excess water from wood furniture after removal of lamps and tabletop items.
• If your home has a crawlspace, be aware excess moisture in this area can often foster mold growth.

Mold Remediation process

Understanding The Mold Remediation Process

Every mold damage scenario is different and requires a unique solution, but the general mold remediation process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate the “typical” process:

The mold cleanup and restoration process begins when you call our National Call Center. Our representative will ask a series of questions to help us determine the necessary equipment, resources, and personnel.

Step 2: Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment

SERVPRO Franchise Professionals will carefully inspect your property for visible signs of mold. Mold feeds on cellulose and water and can be hidden from plain view. They use various technologies to detect mold and hidden water sources.  

Step 3: Mold Containment

They use various containment procedures to prevent the spread of mold. They may use advanced containment procedures like negative air chambers to isolate the contaminated area with physical barriers and negative air pressure to keep the mold spores from spreading during the cleanup process. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread of mold.

Step 4: Air Filtration

Their specialized filtration equipment allows their Professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. They utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.

Step 5: Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials

The mold remediation process depends on the amount of mold growth and the types of surfaces on which the mold appears. SERVPRO Franchise Professionals use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to eliminate mold colonies and to help prevent new colonies from forming. Removing and disposing of mold-infested porous materials, like drywall and carpeting, may be necessary to remediate heavy mold growth.

Step 6: Cleaning Contents and Belongings

SERVPRO Franchise Professionals clean your furniture, decorative items, curtains, clothing, and other restorable items affected by mold. They use a variety of cleaning techniques to clean and sanitize your belongings. They’re also trained to remove odors and deodorization using fogging equipment.

Step 7: Restoration

Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may be removed. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet; or it may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.

Do You Know The Signs of Mold?

10/29/2018 (Permalink)

Do you know what's going on behind your walls?

Mold growth can be a nightmare for homeowners. That's why it is important to know the signs of mold so you can stop it before it spreads too far. Most of the time, once the mold has become visible on the surface, it has been growing behind the scenes for quite some time. Make sure you know the signs to look for BEFORE that mold becomes visible. 

If you notice a strange odor, that could be a sign of mold. If an area of your home is giving off a persistent must smell, there is a strong possibility that there is mold in the room. You can typically follow the smell to where it is strongest in the room and find the mold.

Condensation can also be a tell-tale sign of possible mold. It can be excess moisture on windows, or condensation dripping from pipes. If there is excess moisture in your home, that is often a sign that mold may be growing somewhere you can't see. 

A water damage in your home can also lead to mold growth. If there was a leaking pipe or appliance that went unnoticed for some time, there may be mold present. Mold can start to grow as soon as 48 hours after moisture has been present, so if you suspect that you had an ongoing leak, you may want to have a professional inspect for mold. 

If you do suspect your home has mold, give SERVPRO of South Burlington County a call for an inspection 856-988-6195. 

Signs of Water Damage in Wood Floors

10/29/2018 (Permalink)

Hardwood floors are a popular flooring option for many homeowners due to their aesthetic as well as the relatively low maintenance required. While hardwood floors are extremely durable, they can be quite vulnerable to moisture. If your home has hardwood floors, it is important that you are always on the lookout for signs of water damage to the wood flooring. 

A very common sign of water damage in hardwood floors in known as cupping. This occurs when moisture causes the wood to expand, which then pushes the boards together and deforms them in the center. Another common sign of water damage in wood floors is called crowning. Crowning is essentially the opposite of cupping. While cupping causes a depression in the center of the wood planks, crowning is when the boards are pushed together and result in a raise in the center of the wood boards. Both cupping and crowning can lead to a buckling floor if left unchecked. Buckling is when the floor boards have actually begun lifting from the subfloor, causing considerable damage to your wood floor. 

Other signs to be aware of are if the floor starts to crack, the boards are separating, or the wood becomes soft and weak. If you notice any of these signs occurring in your wood floor, you have wood floor water damage, and need to take action to prevent further damage.

The first step in preventing further water damage is to determine the source of the damage. If you have an active leak, it is best to turn of the water to the home and have a leak detector or plumber inspect to determine the cause of leak and make a repair. 

You should also call SERVPRO right away to begin the mitigation services. If the floor is salvageable, we can place drying equipment (including a floor drying mat system) to repair the damaged floor to its preloss condition.

Are You Ready For Whatever Happens?

10/29/2018 (Permalink)

The best way to reduce interruption to your business following a disaster is to plan for it now! It is estimated that as many as 50% of businesses may never recover following a disaster. Of the ones that do, an overwhelming majority of them had preparedness plans in place. 

By developing a SERVPRO® Emergency READY Profile for your business, you minimize business interruption by having an immediate plan of action. Knowing what to do and what to expect in advance is the key to timely mitigation and can help minimize how water and fire damage can affect your business.

Most contingency plans are made up of three main components: incident response, disaster recovery, and business continuity. The SERVPRO® ERP addresses incident response and disaster recovery. Think about potential disasters that could affect your facility. Now ask yourself: Are you ready?

Our SERVPRO® Emergency READY Profile is a start-up approach that provides important information needed to begin mitigation and recovery services.

Why the SERVPRO® ERP?

• A no cost assessment of your facility
  
  
  
  • This means there is no need to allocate funds, giving you a great value at no cost.
  
  
  

• A concise Profile Document that contains only the critical information needed in the event of an emergency. 
  
  
  • It will only take a little time to complete and will not take you away from current projects. But it will save a lot of time if ever needed.
  
  
  

• A guide to help you get back into your building following a disaster. 
  
  
  • This can help minimize the amount of time your business is inactive by having an immediate plan of action.
  
  
  

• Establishes SERVPRO® of South Burlington County as your disaster mitigation and restoration provider. 
  
  
  • You have a provider that is recognized as an industry leader and close by.
  
  
  

• Identification of the line of command for authorizing work to begin. 
  
  
  • This saves time so we can begin the work of mitigating the damage which can save you time and money
  
  
  

• Provides facility details such as shut-off valve locations, priority areas and priority contact information. 
  
  
  • Having a quick reference of what to do, how to do it and who to call provides solutions in advance of an emergency so that during the emergency you are “Ready for whatever happens.”

Tips For Preventing Water Damage in Your Apartment Community

10/29/2018 (Permalink)

With so many shared walls and spaces, water damage in an apartment community can get messy pretty quickly. Of course you can never know when an emergency situation will occur, but it’s in your best interest as a property manager, as well as in the best interest of your residents, to always be ahead of the game. Take these measures today to prevent water damage tomorrow.

1. Check On Aging Appliances Regularly – If the property you manage includes a fridge, dishwasher, and/or washer/dryer in unit, you should closely monitor the age of the appliances as well as routinely checking them for cracked or damaged hoses or connections. Washer hoses should be replaced about every five years. It’s a good idea to replace washers and dryers before there’s a problem. It may cost more money now, but it could save you a lot of money and a headache or two in the future.
   
   
2. Repair Old or Damaged Roofs When It’s Dry – Don’t wait for a big rain storm to find out that the roofing at your unit(s) needs replacing. Make routine checkups to monitor the condition of the roof(s) at your property. Make time and room in the budget to make any replacements or upgrades necessary during the dry season so that you can avoid water damage in the wet season.
   
   
3. Stay in Touch with Your Residents and Know When they’re Traveling – Many people go on vacations during the summer. Talk to your residents about having their water shut off while they’re gone or, alternatively, having someone check on their apartment from time to time while they’re gone. If a water leak occurs while they’re away and no one is checking in, a small problem could potentially turn into something much worse.
   
   
4. Clear Downspouts Consistently – This is especially important if there are a lot of large trees throughout your apartment community. When leaves, branches, and other debris clog the gutters, the risk of flooding is increased. Clear all debris from the gutters frequently. If you know a storm is about to hit, make sure everything is clear and that water is being effectively carried away from the building.
   
   
5. Apply Dry-Proofing Methods – One cost effective way to prevent large scale water damage in low-lying areas is to apply waterproofing coatings and sealings. You can also elevate electrical equipment at least three feet off of the floor and install waterproof structures around circuits and electrical breakers.
   
   
6. Check For HVAC System Blockages – If the line that moves condensation from the HVAC system is backed up, it can create serious water damage. Backed up water can seep through ceilings and through light fixtures or in between walls. When water leaks between walls, it can go undetected and result in mold damage in addition to water damage.

Effects of Mold from Water Damage – House Cleanup & Health

7/11/2017 (Permalink)

Mold Remediation

When an area experiences a major flood, water damage is not the only deadly culprit lurking around. As devastating as the damage is when the waters recede, residents are often faced with the new threat of mold contamination.

Porous materials that absorb water can confine mold infinitely. Anything that can harbor mold should be discarded immediately. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), some people are sensitive to mold because exposure can cause symptoms such as eye irritation, wheezing, nasal congestion or skin irritation. Those who are seriously allergic to mold, may experience more severe reactions such as shortness of breath or a fever. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) found sufficient evidence linking indoor exposure to mold with upper respiratory tract symptoms, wheezing and coughing in healthy individuals in addition to those with fragile immune conditions.

Mold and mildew can begin growing within 24 hours after a flood. Mold can begin colonization throughout your home, from the attic to the basement, and then to your crawl spaces. Porous materials such as rotten wood, drywall, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, rags, upholstered furniture or stale carpeting can trap mold indefinitely and should be discarded immediately. During cleanup, the EPA recommends that you wear gloves and use an N-95 respirator in a well-ventilated area.

Wet places need to be cleaned immediately and not allowed to remain damp. Mold cannot grow without moisture. Non-porous objects such as metal, plastic, glass or ceramic should be cleaned with a solution of household bleach, detergent and water. Use up to 1 cups of bleach per gallon of water. Do not forget to wear rubber gloves, goggles, an air filter mask and other protective clothing when working with bleach solutions. Never mix bleach and ammonia together. Mold contaminated areas should be washed down. Have ductwork inspected by a professional and don’t forget to change your air and furnace filters. Be sure to monitor the area for any signs of new mold growth and moisture.
