Some Homeowners may react to a water damage by throwing down a few towels to clean up the standing water, maybe even placing a fan or two in the area to help circulate the air flow. However, the structural damage may be much worse than one may think or see visually, and not addressing the full problem will lead to bigger issues down the road. There is a science behind SERVPRO of Santa Clara’s drying processes.

SERVPRO of Santa Clara's professionals continually go through a series of trainings to stay current with the industry standards of the science of water mitigation. Holding to specific processes helps to minimize the possibilities of secondary damages (i.e. microbial growth). When you call SERVPRO of Santa Clara to assist with your damages, you can expect our trained professionals to:

• Take a full scope/inspection of the property and the loss area to detect and chase the hidden moisture

Preparing Santa Clara County for Wildfire Season

SERVPRO here to help with your Wildfire Cleanup 24/7

As the hot summer months quickly approach, many Santa Clara County residences may feel anxiety surrounding the possibilities of another Wildfire season. The aftermath of the 2020 SCU Wildfires is still very fresh for much of our community and the fear of the continued dry conditions leading to more fires in the area is very real. It is always a good idea to stay prepared and understand the steps to keep safe for these possible disasters.

If you’re area is prone to wildfires, stay prepared by:

• Knowing your neighborhood exit routes and shelter locations.
• Discuss a plan of action with your household so everyone knows what to expect if evacuations are necessary.
• Have an arrangement for your pets and livestock predetermined as not all emergency shelters accept animals.
• Keep emergency supplies organized on hand and ready to easily transport as needed.
• Register to receive local evacuation alerts and weather condition notifications.

If you’re area is experiencing a wildfire, remember these safety tips:

• Attempt to keep smoke out of your home and reduce respiratory smoke exposure.
• Use high efficiency filters for central air conditioning systems and set your fresh air intake to recirculate mode to prohibit outside air from entering.
• Prepare for possible long-term power outages with supplies of batteries, flashlights, water, food with extended shelf life, etc.
• Keep updated on current conditions and heed Emergency Alert System evacuation notifications.

Now that the wildfire flames have been put out, ensure to follow these safety tips on what to do after a wildfire:

• Do not return home until after authorities have cleared the area.
• Continue to monitor the air quality reports in the area, use N95 respiratory protection as needed, and pay close attention to any health effects.
• Understand that embers and ash may still be hot. Child should avoid affected areas if possible and should not assist in cleaning. Adults should ensure to wear various protection if in affected areas, including gloves, long pants, long sleeves, goggles, shoes, etc. Wash ash off as soon as possible if in your mouth, eyes, or on the skin.
• Be aware of driving and building hazards. Access affected areas during daylight to better see pending hazards.

Experiencing a community catastrophe like a Wildfire is devastating. SERVPRO of Santa Clara professionals understand how traumatic these situations are and have assisted in numerous fire cleanups spanning the past 20 years. We are here to help guide you through each step of the way.

How to Avoid Disaster during a Power Outage

How to Avoid Disaster during a Power Outage

It’s important to prepare for and protect our Santa Clara County homes, businesses and families during power outages as the stormy months approach and many hazards can go unnoticed.

Candles left unattended can quickly turn into a tragedy, possibly creating a structure fire. The safer option would be utilizing flashlights or other battery-operated lighting options that avoid the presence of an open flame. This means keep extra batteries on hand. If candles are your only option, it is vital to never leave the fire unattended and that the candle is placed in a fireproof holder stationed away from any flammable materials and or drafts.

Fire hazards are not the only disaster lurking during power outages. Carbon Monoxide poisoning from indoor grills or generators are also extremely dangerous. If these appliances are used in enclosed areas (including homes, garages or sheds), the outcome could be lethal. Carbon Monoxide gas can go unnoticed as it cannot be seen, smelled, nor tasted. A person may not realize they are being poisoned until it’s too late. It is essential to use these items exclusively outside in a well ventilated area and operated according to manufacturer’s instructions.

If you have experienced any fire, soot or property damage to your Santa Clara County home or business, rest assured our experienced technicians and customer services representatives are here to help 24/7. Please call our office today (408) 392-9700.

Kitchen Fires – The Most Common Cause of Fires

2/17/2021 (Permalink)

Don't let a kitchen disaster happen to you!

A fire can ignite anywhere, anytime –though kitchens are the most common origin of fires. Every time you turn on the oven or light a burner, the risk of an unintentional fire grows no matter how careful you think you may be. SERVPRO of Santa Clara is here to help you recognize and address the top fire risks to keep you and your family safe.

A great number of fires are created by unattended pots or forgotten meals in the oven. Allowing yourself to get distracted or leaving items unsupervised can end in devastation. Oil can jump out of the pot onto a burner and ignite flames in a blink of an eye, or a casserole can be forgotten in the oven and catch fire. Ensure you don’t neglect your meals and appliances by staying close by and set periodic timers to help remind you to check cooking statuses.

Even the most careful cooks can be a victim of a fire. It is vital to understand the steps to take if and when a fire does occur. Remember to remain calm and act quickly to put out the fire. Keep in mind that oil and water does not mix; attempting to put out an oil fire with water will only cause more damage by spreading the flames. Oil fires should be suffocated with a non-flammable pan or lid and the heat source should be turned off immediately. Other kitchen resources to assist in smothering small fires can include baking soda or salt. However, it is always a good idea to keep a fire extinguisher close by.

Even after a fire is extinguished, substantial damage can still be left behind. Whether the damage is charred walls and cabinets, or lingering soot and smoke in the structure, rest assured that SERVPRO of Santa Clara can assist with your fire restoration needs. With decades of experience, our team will guide you through the entire process by working with you and your insurance company to help get your kitchen and your home back to normal.

Don’t let Rainwater Intrusion Damage your home:

11/20/2020 (Permalink)

Water intrusion can happen to anyone - call our office today!

With winter nearing and possible rainstorms pending, some homes may start to see damages from rainwater intrusion. If your home is experiencing any kind of water intrusion, the first and most imperative step is to repair or resolve the source of the intrusion to stop further damage. This could be by means of a roof tarp, sand bags, sump pump, French drain, or a combination of these depending on your unique situation.

Once the origin of the intrusion has been addressed, your second vital step would be to call SERVPRO of Santa Clara (408) 392-9700. During our moisture inspection, we would determine which materials sustained damage, the severity of the damages, and provide an estimate to dry the structure.

Making the mistake of ignoring water damaged materials is guaranteed to result in secondary damages and mold contamination. For mold to colonize, the organism needs moisture and food. The moisture allows the mold to assimilate and digest its food. The “food” would be considered anything cellulosic (which in layman’s terms means anything derived from plants). Many of the materials used to construct homes are cellulosic, i.e. the paper on drywall and on the backing of vinyl floors, the wood used to frame your home, or any wooden floors, doors, baseboards, trim, etc. etc. The presence of mold contamination within your home will not only damage the structure, but will create an unhealthy indoor environment for you and your loved ones.

If your home has sustained moisture or mold damage, do not hesitate to call SERVPRO of Santa Clara today (408) 392-9700. SERVPRO of Santa Clara has an American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC), Council Certified Microbial Remediation Supervisor on staff who can guide you through the remediation process.

Is that MOLD?! How to Properly Handle Mold in your Santa Clara County Home.

7/31/2020 (Permalink)

Mold can spread through a home in as little as 48 hours.

Microscopic mold spores are naturally present nearly everywhere, both indoors and outdoors, making it literally impossible to remove all mold from your property. The goal in completing a professional mold remediation would be to reduce the elevated levels of mold spore count back to its natural or baseline level, getting an area back to its “normal fungal ecology”. There are some businesses you may have seen advertise “mold removal” and even promise to eliminate all mold, which is erroneous. Consider the following mold facts:

• Mold occurs almost everywhere organically, indoors and outdoors.
• Mold spores are microscopic, invisible to the naked eye, drifting through the air and are able to enter your home through windows, doors, AC/heating systems or even on your clothing or a pet.
• Mold spores flourish in moist conditions. Mold spores will rapidly colonize when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
• Before mold remediation can begin, any issues causing water damage or excess moisture must be addressed and repaired otherwise the mold will re-colonize and return.
• Mold often generates a pungent, musty odor and can help lead you to possible mold problem areas when the mold is hidden inside wall cavities.
• Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. It’s best to maintain an indoor humidity level that is below 45 percent.

If your home or business has a mold problem, call our experts today to inspect and assess your property using our specialized training and equipment to remediate your mold infestation.

Fire, Smoke, & Soot Mitigation Services for our Santa Clara Community

7/31/2020 (Permalink)

Smoke and Soot Damage Can Cause an Invasive Odor in Your Home. Call the experts at SERVPRO of Santa Clara.

Smoke and soot is extremely overtaking and will infiltrate numerous cervices inside your home, causing concealed damage and odor. Our years of smoke damage experience and expertise enables us to inspect and assess the precise degree of the damage, allowing for the development of a comprehensive plan of action.  

Smoke and soot specifics:

• Hot smoke migrates to cooler areas and upper levels of a structure.
• Smoke drifts around plumbing systems migrating through the openings around plumbing pipes between levels
• The type of smoke can dramatically affect the restoration process.

Various Types of Smoke

There are two different types of smoke–wet and dry. Each type of smoke creates a different kind of soot residue after a fire, each requiring its own unique cleaning procedure. Before restoration commences, SERVPRO of Santa Clara will test the soot to identify the type of smoke damage that is present in order to develop the appropriate remediation plan. Here is some additional information:

Wet Smoke – Deriving from Plastic and Rubber

• Low heat, smoldering, pungent odor, sticky, smeary. Smoke webs are more difficult to clean.

Dry Smoke – Deriving from Paper and Wood

• Fast burning, high temperatures, heat rises therefore smoke rises.

Protein Fire Residue – Produced by evaporation of substance rather than from a fire

• Practically invisible, discolors paints and varnishes, severe pungent odor. 

Our Fire Damage Restoration Promise

Every structure affected by smoke and fire damage reacts in its own unique way and requires its own individually tailored restoration plan.  SERVPRO of Santa Clara has the right equipment, expertise, and experience to professionally mitigate your fire and smoke loss.  We will treat your family with empathy and respect, and your property with intricate care.

Information on the Coronavirus

CDC is responding to an outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus that was first detected in China and which has now been detected in more than 100 locations internationally (as of this publication), including in the United States. The virus has been named “SARS-CoV-2” and the disease it causes has been named “coronavirus disease 2019” (abbreviated “COVID-19”). On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak a “public health emergency of international concernexternal icon” (PHEIC). On January 31, 2020, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex M. Azar II declared a public health emergency (PHE) for the United States to aid the nation’s healthcare community in responding to COVID-19. On March 11, 2020 WHO publiclyexternal icon characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic.*

In the past two weeks, the number of cases of COVID-19 outside China has increased 13-fold, and the number of affected countries has tripled. There are now more than 118,000 cases in 114 countries and 4,291 people have lost their lives. Thousands more are fighting for their lives in hospitals. However, of the 118,000 cases reported globally in 114 countries, more than 90 percent of cases are in just four countries and two of those – China and the Republic of Korea - have significantly declining epidemics. 81 countries have not reported any cases, and 57 countries have reported 10 cases or less. **

How Can SERVPRO of Santa Clara Help You?

SERVPRO of Santa Clara cleaning specialists can perform proactive cleanup protocol services to those properties that have had no known positive cases of COVID-19. SERVPRO of Santa Clara would need each Customer to acknowledge that the proactive cleaning and disinfecting applies only to the current condition of the property and would not protect from potential future exposure from COVID-19 contagion if an infected person was to access the facility after the proactive cleaning was completed.

Proactive Cleaning Work Scope

For both residential and commercial areas, the CDC recommends cleaning and disinfecting all high-touched areas and items on a routine basis. These surfaces include but are not limited to doors, knobs, windows, cabinets, tables, light switches, bathroom fixtures and knobs, phones, electronic devices, elevator buttons, handrails, books, toys, water fountains and faucets, etc. ***

SERVPRO of Santa Clara Proactive Cleaning Procedures

Our effective proactive cleaning procedure would entail the cleaning of all porous and non-porous surfaces and disinfecting of non-porous surfaces. Porous surfaces that are water-tolerant like fabrics and carpet can also be sanitized. We would finalize the services by cleaning and disinfecting all of the SERVPRO equipment and supplies used during the cleaning and disposing of all debris.

Following the recommendations of the CDC, SERVPRO of Santa Clara would proceed with the usage of a hospital-grade disinfectant with labeled effectiveness against similar virus organisms. SERVPRO’s proprietary disinfectant, SERVPROXIDE, fits this description and has many EPA-approved claims in Norovirus, Staphylococcus (MRSA), Human Immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), Hepatitis A, B & C,  E. coli, Salmonella, Rotavirus, and Swine Flu (H1N1) to name a few. ****

SERVPRO is ready to blitz to your property 24/7!

Being one of the largest food consumption days in the United States with households hosting friends and family to watch the “big game”, Super Bowl Sunday can bring unanticipated dangers to your property. Below are some suggested steps to help avoid property damage and keep the focus on having fun!

Dangers in the Kitchen:

Biggest rule in the kitchen – DON’T GET DISTRACTED. Ensure the safety of your guests, your property, and yourself by keeping an eye on your oven and stove top. Do not leave your oven unattended while cooking, set timers to avoid burning food, never discard hot grease in a trash can, clean up splattered grease and oil immediately, and keep cooking surfaces clear of flammable items.

Congested Circuits:

Maxing out your power sources by overloading electrical outlets and using excessive extension cords creates not only tripping hazards but is also a leading cause of electrical fires. When a circuit tries to draw more electricity than it is designed to handle, the systems can overheat resulting in a high risk of fire. Remember to keep circuit usage within appropriate limits of the circuit load. Space out plug-in devices or appliances, unplug anything that does not need to be used, be aware of any warning signs of an overloaded circuit (diming lights, bussing outlets, burning odors, etc.)

Plumbing Dilemmas:

Complications with clogged drains can be a nightmare with a full house. With the potential of water damage ruining the fun, it’s best to check pipes for leaks, keep food and grease away from kitchen drains and be cautious of what is flushed down toilets.

SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE GAME!

Now that you have a plan in place to keep problems at bay, it’s time to relax while cheering on your favorite NFL team and kicking back with friends and family!

If a disaster does occur – remember SERVPRO of Santa Clara is here to help 24/7. Call our highly trained team for assistance (408) 392-9700.

PREPARING YOUR BUSINESS FOR AN EMERGENCY: IMPORTANT THINGS YOU CAN DO NOW TO BE READY FOR A FUTURE DISASTER!

PREPARING YOUR BUSINESS FOR AN EMERGENCY

HERE TO HELP WITH BIG & SMALL STEPS
To Prepare your commercial property for an Emergency

We have supported countless home and business owners and property managers across Santa Clara County with water, fire, mold and storm property damages. One thing we have learned: Emergencies happen every day. We understand that your lives are busy, it can be overwhelming to add being prepared in case of an Emergency to your list, and getting started is often the hardest part. We also know that being prepared can make a huge difference when faced with a disaster situation and can help get your life and operations back to normal more quickly afterwards.

HOW SERVPRO CAN HELP YOUR BUSINESS
BEFORE, DURING & AFTER A DISASTER

The SERVPRO® Emergency READY Profile® will help ensure you and your business is "Ready for whatever happens." in the event of an emergency. Our ERP is a comprehensive document containing critical information about your business and building, including emergency contact information, shut-off locations and priority areas to help minimize the damage and interruption to your business operations, with an immediate plan of action.

Preparation is a key component for making it through any size disaster, whether it's a small water leak, a large fire, or a hazardous flood. The best time to plan for any event is not when the water or flames are interrupting your routine, but well before it happens. The SERVPRO® Emergency READY Profile® serves as a quick reference of important building and contact information or can be an ideal supplement to any existing well-designed emergency preparedness plan or contingency program. Rather than reacting to a disaster situation, it's far more beneficial to take proactive measures to establish a plan and relationship with a trusted leader in the restoration service industry.

CALL US TO GET STARTED TODAY!

PREPAREDNESS PLANNING FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Identify Potential Problems

Are floods frequent in your area? Identify which natural disasters are most common in your area and determine your business's risk factor. Start by preparing for the most imminent threat first. Also consider things like power-outages and smaller emergencies like plumbing issues or vandalism.

Develop & Practice An Emergency Response Plan
What if a fire started in your facility kitchen? An emergency response plan is what your business will implement in the event of a man-made or natural disaster. The plan should include how you will protect your employees and customers, manage business operations, and communicate during and after the disaster. Practice this plan. How easy is it to exit your office building on foot? How long does it take to reach the designated meeting place? Who will help customers or employees who need mobility assistance?

Make A Crisis Communications Plan
The crisis communications plan is how you will keep in contact with employees and customers. Your plan helps your business respond promptly and accurately during and after the disaster. Determine in advance who will be the spokesperson for a specific audience.

Create A Business Continuity Plan
How will your business continue to operate in the event of a disaster? Can you continue to receive orders online; is your customer data available off-site? A continuity plan includes how to manage communication with customers and suppliers, how to fulfill orders and service contracts, and how to recover lost company data.

Talk To Your Insurance Agent
Business insurance may help protect your company from substantial losses in the event of a covered claim. Beyond property coverage, you might also consider business interruption coverage, which may help reimburse you if you're temporarily unable to do business after a covered loss. Each business's needs will vary, depending on the type of business and the risk associated with your area.

Our specialized equipment and highly trained professional staff has the scope of services to handle your property restoration needs. We understand you may not have all the answers - this maybe the first traumatic experience with your residential or commercial property. Calling our team connects you to a professional staff that can provide the answers to your restoration concerns and tailor a solution to restore your home or business.

Fire Smoke & Soot Cleanup Services

7/2/2019 (Permalink)

Smoke and Soot Damage Can Cause an Invasive Odor in Your Home. Call the experts at SERVPRO of Santa Clara

Smoke and soot is very invasive and can penetrate various cavities within your home, causing hidden damage and odor. Our smoke damage expertise and experience allows us to inspect and accurately assess the extent of the damage to develop a comprehensive plan of action.  

Smoke and soot facts:

• Hot smoke migrates to cooler areas and upper levels of a structure.
• Smoke flows around plumbing systems, seeping through the holes used by pipes to go from floor to floor.
• The type of smoke may greatly affect the restoration process.

Different Types of Smoke

There are two different types of smoke–wet and dry. As a result, there are different types of soot residue after a fire. Before restoration begins, SERVPRO of Santa Clara will test the soot to determine which type of smoke damage occurred. The cleaning procedures will then be based on the information identified during pretesting. Here is some additional information:

Wet Smoke – Plastic and Rubber

• Low heat, smoldering, pungent odor, sticky, smeary. Smoke webs are more difficult to clean.

Dry Smoke – Paper and Wood

• Fast burning, high temperatures, heat rises therefore smoke rises.

Protein Fire Residue – Produced by evaporation of material rather than from a fire

• Virtually invisible, discolors paints and varnishes, extreme pungent odor. 

Our Fire Damage Restoration Services

Since each smoke and fire damage situation is a little different, each one requires a unique solution tailored for the specific conditions.  We have the equipment, expertise, and experience to restore your fire and smoke damage.  We will also treat your family with empathy and respect and your property with care.

If your Commercial Building has sustained Water Damage, Call SERVPRO of Santa Clara at (408) 392-9700 to inspect, assess and mitigate the loss to minimize your down time. Commercial Water Damage Restoration cannot be compared to residential restoration. There are hidden areas and structural voids where water can migrate. Many of the losses we encounter are multilevel structures that have sustained damage to electrical rooms, server rooms, elevator shafts, vast ceiling cavities, large HVAC systems and the list goes on and on. Having the expertise to assess and mitigate the entire structure holistically is essential to preventing secondary damage and future problems. It is equally important to have the resources necessary to recover documents, books, computers and electronic equipment. Depending on what was affected by the loss, office cubicles and desk systems may need to be dismantled, labeled and reset in the correct location once the loss is mitigated. SERVPRO of Santa Clara has the experience, equipment and resources to mitigate your water loss and keep your business operating.

Prevent Damage to Your Home from Rainwater Intrusion

3/7/2019 (Permalink)

Mold Growth supported by Rainwater Intrusion

With the recent and ongoing rainstorms there have been many residences that have sustained damage from rainwater intrusion. If your home has experienced moisture intrusion, the first and most important step is to stop the source of water intrusion by means of a roof tarp, sand bags, a sump pump, a French drain, or a combination of these depending on the source of water intrusion. Then give SERVPRO of Santa Clara a call to perform a moisture inspection, determine which materials sustained damage and provide an estimate to dry the structure. If moisture is left on the building materials and is not addressed, the conditions can cause secondary damages and mold contamination. For mold to colonize, the organism needs moisture and food. The moisture provides the means for mold to assimilate and digest food. The food is anything cellulosic which in layman’s terms is anything from plants. This includes many of the materials that are used to construct your home, i.e. the paper on drywall and on the backing of vinyl floors, the wood used to frame your home, wooden floors, doors, baseboards, trim and the list goes on and on. Mold contamination can damage your structure and create an unhealthy indoor environment for you and your family. If your home sustains moisture damage from rainwater intrusion or if you suspect moisture or mold contamination call SERVPRO of Santa Clara. Our friendly office staff will help schedule a time to inspect your home and recommend the steps necessary to dry the structure and remediate any mold that is discovered. SERVPRO of Santa Clara has anAmerican Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC)Council Certified Microbial Remediation Supervisor on staff, who can guide you through the remediation process.

3/7/2019 (Permalink)

Disaster Preparedness

The recent fires in California emphasize that the need for an emergency plan for each household is essential in staying safe during these emergencies. SERVPRO of Santa Clara expresses that an important component of practicing safety is making a Go-Bag.

SERVPRO of Santa Clara has put together a list of items that are needed for your Emergency Go-Bag. These items should be ready to go and are simple to grab during an emergency if you must evacuate quickly. You might not always be at home when a disaster strikes so make sure you keep additional supplies in your car and at work. Make sure to take your Go-Bag with you if you are not going to be home for an extended period of time. Disasters are unpredictable. 

Put the following items together in a backpack or another easy to carry container. Make sure each member of your family or household has one of these Go-Bags, that include supplies for your pets, in case family members are separated during the evacuation. 

• Flashlight
• Radio- Battery Operated
• Batteries
• Whistle
• Emergency Cash and Change for Laundry and Phone Calls
• Sturdy Shoes
• Changes of Clothing
• Water and Food to Last a Few Days

Every Fire is Different - Restoring Fire damage requires a "Customized Restoration Plan" SERVPRO of Santa Cruz will formulate the right plan for you.

Smoke and soot are very invasive and can penetrate wall cavities, ceiling cavities, attic spaces and the sub-area crawlspaces of your home or business. Because of this it is a challenge to address hidden damage and the resulting odors that can permeate long after the damage initially occurs. Our smoke damage expertise and experience enables us to locate hidden damage. Our thorough Initial Inspection will provide you with an accurate assessment of the extent of damage and a comprehensive plan of action to bring your home and life back to normal again.

There are several components to consider when dealing with a fire damage:

• Hot smoke migrates to cooler areas and the upper levels of a structure.
• Smoke flows around plumbing systems, seeping throughopenings where pipeswere installedbetween levels.
• The type of smoke may greatly affect the restoration process.

That is why consideration of the type of smoke produced by the fire is extremely important to facilitating the removal process. Because there are different types of smoke there are different types of soot residues found after a fire damage. Before restoration begins, SERVPRO of Santa Cruz will test the soot to determine what type of smoke damage it is and the best way of treating it. The cleaning procedures will then be based on the information gathered in the pretesting process. Here is some information on the types of smoke and residue -

Wet Smoke- Plastic and Rubber - Low heat, smoldering, pungent odor, sticky, smeary. Smoke webs are more difficult to clean.

Dry Smoke- Paper and Wood - Fast burning, high temperatures, heat rises therefore so does the smoke.

Protein Fire Residue - Produced by evaporation of material rather than from the fire itself. - Virtually invisible, discolors paints and varnishes, extreme pungent odor.

Does Your Santa Clara County Home Have A Mold Problem?

1/26/2018 (Permalink)

In Santa Clara County, mold can spread through a home in as little as 48 hours.

Microscopic mold spores naturally occur almost everywhere, both outdoors and indoors. This makes it impossible to remove all mold from a home or business. Therefore, mold remediation reduces the mold spore count back to its natural or baseline level. Some restoration businesses advertise “mold removal” and even guarantee to remove all mold, which is a fallacy. Consider the following mold facts:

• Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
• Mold spores are microscopic and 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 can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
• Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.

If your home or business has a mold problem, we can inspect and assess your property and use our specialized training, equipment, and expertise to remediate your mold infestation.

Emergency Readiness- How Ready Are You?

Plan ahead with "Emergency Ready Plan" from SERVPRO

For a property owner, a worst-case disaster scenario involving fire or water damage can seem unthinkable and then suddenly become a reality. In the aftermath of a disaster, quick response time by a disaster recovery and restoration specialist can help minimize property damage as well as inventory or home contents loss. To provide home and business owners with a quick and convenient way to call in the experts when disaster strikes,SERVPRO of Santa Clara has the SERVPRO Ready Plan Mobile Application. In the confusion and panic that often surround a disaster, a property owner or manager can reach out for expert help right from the scene, using their cell phones."

Our “ERP” application allows both residential and commercial property managers and owners to create an Emergency Ready Profile that contains critical facility information that can help speed up response time after fire or water damage occurs. In addition to property details, the application tracks prior loss history, utility shut off locations, and key contacts; stores photos of the damage; and integrates local weather forecasts and more, including the address and contact information for our franchise.

Through the application, the user can quickly call SERVPRO of Santa Clara or submit an electronic "First Notice of Loss" (FNOL), setting the wheels of recovery in motion. Rapid response from a disaster cleanup and restoration specialist can help the property owner evaluate options, start the insurance process and take the right steps from the beginning to bring their property back to normal, "Like it never even happened."

Faster to your Santa Clara comercial or residential fire

9/19/2016 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Santa Cruz will restore your fire and soot damaged property with industry leading service and trained technicians.

Title: SERVPRO of Santa Clara Comercial and residential Smoke and Soot Cleanup

Category: Fire Damage

Photo Caption: Smoke and Soot Damage Can Cause a Pervasive Odor in Your Santa Clara county Home.

Body:

Smoke and soot is very invasive and can penetrate various cavities within your home, causing hidden damage and odor. Our smoke damage expertise and experience allows us to inspect and accurately assess the extent of the damage to develop a comprehensive plan of action.  

Smoke and soot facts:

• Hot smoke migrates to cooler areas and upper levels of a structure.
• Smoke flows around plumbing systems, seeping through the holes used by pipes to go from floor to floor.
• The type of smoke may greatly affect the restoration process.

Different Types of Smoke

There are two different types of smoke–wet and dry. As a result, there are different types of soot residue after a fire. Before restoration begins, SERVPRO of Santa Clara will test the soot to determine which type of smoke damage occurred. The cleaning procedures will then be based on the information identified during pretesting. Here is some additional information:

Wet Smoke – Plastic and Rubber

• Low heat, smoldering, pungent odor, sticky, smeary. Smoke webs are more difficult to clean.

Dry Smoke – Paper and Wood

• Fast burning, high temperatures, heat rises therefore smoke rises.

Protein Fire Residue – Produced by evaporation of material rather than from a fire

• Virtually invisible, discolors paints and varnishes, extreme pungent odor. 

Our Fire Damage Restoration Services

Since each smoke and fire damage situation is a little different, each one requires a unique solution tailored for the specific conditions.  We have the equipment, expertise, and experience to restore your fire and smoke damage.  We will also treat your family with empathy and respect and your property with care.
