Microbial Removal

6/6/2023 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of San Jacinto/Idyllwild/Lakeview is a microbial growth removal company providing high services to help customers in our surrounding areas near and far. Our technicians are highly trained in the remediation process who work closely with the water damage technicians and the drying technicians to find the source of moisture and begin the removal process.

We follow a four-step process:

Containment – installing plastic barriers with negative air pressure inside the containment to stop the distribution of the microbial spores. We seal any vents or seals such as the HVAC system and set up clean rooms and decontamination rooms.

Microbial Removal – porous materials must be removed and disposed of following guidelines, while the non-porous materials can be cleaned and sanitized. Any structural materials that are heavily damaged must be removed due to their structural integrity being compromised.

Cleanup – starting from the highest areas and working our way down and out, our technicians will wipe and disinfect all areas to remove any dust or settled spores.

Dry the Materials – once the source has been identified and repaired or removed, the entire area including structure and contents will be dried to its normal moisture content level.

Whether you find microbial growth in your home or commercial building, at SERVPRO we are happy to schedule an inspection with our trained technicians to begin the process. We can offer advice on the best approach to take and the safety measures needed to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

You may be wondering, does the owner of the building cover anything?

How to Deal with Clogged Gutters

4/5/2022 (Permalink)

Trees are constantly falling and leaving behind issues to deal with. Sometimes the trees even fall into the gutters which causes them to become clogged. It is important that we are aware of this issue so that we can prevent further issues from happening.

If you take care of the situation before more damage occurs, it will be simple for the professionals to take care of.

Also as water seeps under shingles it refreezes, expanding and creating a gap for future drainage to fill and further the cycle. This could cause the water to leak into the house and cause immense damage.

Here at SERVPRO of San Jacinto/Idyllwild/Lakeview we are prepared to handle any situation that we come across. If the job seems too complicated for you, do not be afraid because we are here to help. Our main goal is to be there for you and help you through this situation.
