The Dangers of House-Fire Aftermath

7/17/2019 (Permalink)

Smoke moves quickly throughout your home during a fire. Even small fires may require professional cleaning and restoration services.

Inhaling any type of smoke can be detrimental to your health, even for short periods of time. In fact, the leading cause of death in house fires is not from the fire itself, but instead smoke inhalation. Just a few minutes of smoke exposure to lungs can cause cardiac arrest, brain damage, and even death. But even after the fire stops, the damage left behind can pose further dangers to your health.

Every year, there are over 1 million house fires. Each of these fires leaves beyond VOCs (volatile organic compounds), which are released from the burning contents within the structure. One of these VOCs is cyanide, which is released when synthetic materials--such as rubber, plastic, or foam--are burnt. Because exposure to these toxic VOCs can cause permanent health issues, it is important that you call a professional to access your damage, large or small. If you have experienced a house fire, call SERVPRO today to help restore your home and protect your health from the dangers of smoke and fire damage.

Summer Outdoor Maintenance Checklist

6/7/2019 (Permalink)

As the weather gets nicer, we are ready to emerge from our indoor winter hibernation. For many of us, nicer weather can often mean we have some work to do In our yards and home exteriors. This is because the long winters sometimes leave our homes and outdoor spaces in need of maintenance. If you own a home or have an outdoor space, see our list below for some project ideas:

• Check the exterior of your home for damaged or rotting pieces of siding. To keep siding looking fresh and to protect it from the elements, it is good to use a power washer for a deep clean every year.
• If you find any chips, cracks, or fading on your siding, it is important to touch them up. This will ensure your siding is protected from further damage and will ultimately last longer.
• Wash your windows on both the inside and outside. Dirty windows make your view less than satisfactory and let in less light.
• Inspect your foundation for cracks . Cracks in your foundation can spread and create entry points for water and pests. If you find significant cracking, you may need to have it inspected by a professional to avoid further damage.
• Power wash your wooden deck or patio. Not only does this make your outdoor spaces look like new, it can protect your wood surfaces and prevent it from cracking.
• Inspect your driveway for cracks. Small cracks can eventually turn into structural damage over the years, as water continues to freeze inside these cracks every winter. For this reason, it is important to refill these cracks as you discover them.

Why Choose SERVPRO for Duct Cleaning?

4/22/2019 (Permalink)

Ducts can collect large amounts of dust and dirt build-up.

Your ventilation system is often the leading factor in poor indoor air quality. Routinely inspecting the ductwork at your home or business should be a high priority. Soiled air ducts can circulate odors, mold and irritating dust throughout your home or business. Rodents, insects or pests, dust, dirt, debris, bacteria, mold, or pollen: all of these factors can significantly reduce your air quality.

At SERVPRO, we provide cleaning services for your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit (HVAC). Keeping this system clean can potentially lengthen the life of your HVAC by allowing it to function at its peak condition; this can also save you money on utility bills and possible equipment repairs in the long run. We also offer sealing and coating to be sprayed in order to address odor issues or microbial concerns.

In other cases, duct cleaning is not always routine. Duct cleaning can become an essential service after a fire, smoke damage, or suspected mold growth. In case of a fire, smoke travels quickly through your ducts, especially if your HVAC system is running at the time. This can lead to ongoing odor issues in your home or business.

If you have a fire or need a routine cleaning service, SERVPRO of Moline/Rock Island is “Here To Help” with your duct cleaning needs 24/7!

Why Choose SERVPRO for Odor Elimination?

SERVPRO professionals assess your odor source and present you with the best options for elimination.

Unpleasant odors can be tough to get rid of in your home or business. This is especially true following a fire. Even a small fire can cause oppressive odors to linger for years unless the soiled areas are properly cleaned and deodorized. Left untreated, the aftermath of the soot and smoke from fires can become permanent. This is because, as smoke and soot travels throughout your structure, residues and deposits can get left behind in hard to reach places; the longer this sits, the more time it has to soak into the affected surfaces or materials.

At SERVPRO, our highly trained technicians have years of experience cleaning and deodorizing odor sources. Whether you have odor caused by fire, mold, pets, or cigarette smoke, we have the experience and expertise to tackle any size job at your home or business. We do not simply cover up the orders with fragrances; instead, our team of professionals pin-point the exact location of your odor and eliminate the source. Once we identify the source, we use our own proprietary cleaning products designed to eliminate odors and prevent them from returning. This service also includes any items within range of your odor problem that also need treatment, such as furniture, draperies, floors, walls, HVAC systems, ceilings, and more.

If you are in need of deodorization services, call SERVPRO of Moline/Rock Island today at 309-797-1199 and we will make it “Like it never even happened.”
