Lessons about Prevention Gained During Agoura Fire Restoration

SERVPRO can restore your commercial fire damage. call us today!

SERVPRO Advises Agoura Business Owners about Fire Damage

Fire prevention takes effort, yet many business operators give it a minimal priority. Sometimes the results of such inaction are dire if a fire ignites and destroys property. Since one fire incident does not prevent another one from occurring, learning what you can do to avoid fire at your Agoura facility is as important as doing thorough fire restoration.

Unlike doing fire restoration at your Agoura premises which requires immediate actions such as demolition, cleaning fire residues, and rebuilding damaged areas, preventing fire is a longer-term operation. It calls for adjusting how you do things and buying various safety accessories. When the SERVPRO restoration crew inspects your premises, we can identify the procedures you can implement to limit the chances of a fire incident.

Helpful changes that can prevent fires:

• Safeguarding appliances with surge protectors 
• Keeping flammable materials from the heat
• Attending to flames and heat sources
• Reducing clutter 

Every commercial premise is set up uniquely, so the risks vary. Some aspects, such as utilizing electric-powered equipment and appliances, are common in most facilities, so it is easy for a professional to give you helpful advice without having to do an in-depth inspection of the facility. SERVPRO technicians focus on your setup and usage of electronic equipment. Unplugging any equipment when not in use and installing surge protectors rather than plugging them directly into the outlets to minimize the risks of shorts or overheating that can spark fires.

Waste and Clutter Management

If your operations leave materials cluttered around, you increase the risk of fires. Our SERVPRO restoration technicians advise you to pay close attention to handling waste materials such as shredded papers and flammable chemicals. For a laundromat, removing lint from dryers and changing filters enhances fire safety. 

Other useful actions include:

• Ensuring any open flames are attended
• Enforcing policies on cigarette disposal by staff or customers
• Separating waste receptacles

Fire restoration by SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills resolves the immediate issues and can help you prevent future problems. Call us at (818) 991-6292. We're Faster To Any Size Disaster.

One call to SERVPRO will get you the commercial water removal services you need!

Agoura Hills Pet Boarding Facility Can Prepare and Prevent Water Damage

People love their pets and go to great lengths to ensure they are safe and happy if a business trip or vacation far away from Agoura Hills means lodging needs to be found for a furry friend. A reliable pet hotel needs a plan in case of disaster. We suggest they consider partnering with us and developing a blueprint for a response that keeps animals and caretakers secure. 

A high-end boarding Agoura Hills facility for pets has many possibilities for water damage challenges. Grooming area plumbing can fail, or a tub can overflow. Food preparation areas have sinks and taps that spring leaks, and eager dogs, cats, and other guests spill water bowls. Bedding needs laundering, and washing machines that overflow or broken internal pumps send water everywhere. 

With dozens of pampered pets at any given time in the facility, it is a smart move to contact SERVPRO about developing an Emergency Ready Plan and Profile (ERP) for your luxury pet room and board facility. Responding to a water emergency under these unique circumstances goes much more smoothly if you advise us about the animals' individual needs under your care. A thorough explanation of your physical plant, including a map of all areas, makes it much easier to work through a crisis. 

You identify where the animals are housed and the location of utility shutoffs. A speedy response from our SERVPRO crew is crucial to minimizing the chances of secondary water damage. These secondary issues include mold growth and contamination of animal care areas; we suggest you authorize trusted staff members to call for our help and make decisions during the restoration process. 

An experienced SERVPRO project manager meets with you and assesses your facility during the creation of the ERP. This no-obligation visit permits us to make suggestions and brainstorm about restoration challenges while your animal charges are on the premises. We pledge to help you manage the water damage while letting you continue, as much as possible, to host your guests.

Locally Owned Company with National Resources

Avoid the anxiety of dealing with a water damage emergency in your pet board and care. Call SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292 to develop an Emergency Ready Plan and Profile, and then feel confident you have prepared well for the pets of our community.

Drying and Cleaning Agoura Office Carpets After a Leak

1/4/2022 (Permalink)

Fast mitigation is necessary because carpeted floors delaminate after prolonged water exposure.

Water Damage Can Ruin Carpet Floors in Agoura Office Buildings

Many office buildings feature carpeted floors as they provide a pleasant aesthetic and are not often difficult to maintain. Keeping the surface clean can often protect the color and vibrancy of the fibers, but unexpected damages like water leaks and pipe bursts can threaten this flooring. Without swift action, the carpet might need to be removed and replaced.

Standing Water Concerns 

To begin water damage cleanup for Agoura office buildings, our professionals must fixate first on any pooling water. More significant loss incidents can produce several inches of standing water around the source point, making it critical to overcome these concerns for other restoration and recovery actions to get underway. We have powerful extraction devices to help this venture, though wet vacuums and carpet wands are effective with glue-down short pile carpets.

Delamination of Low Pile Carpeting

Carpeted floors delaminate after prolonged water exposure, a process where layers pull apart from each other until the material is unsalvageable. We must also determine the ideal approach for cleaning and preserving underlying elements like:

• Concrete subflooring
• Wood subflooring
• Previously installed hardwood

Deep Cleaning Options

Our inventory's hot water extraction and deluxe cleaning machines dislodge debris and dirt from the carpets to restore their color and soft feel.

Removal and Replacement When Needed

While controlled demolition and replacing the carpeting is the least desirable option in terms of intrusiveness and the turnaround of a restored commercial facility, it is often necessary after prolonged exposure concerns. With a general contractor license and years of experience, we can complete controlled demolition and reinstallation where needed.

Cleaning up and restoring impacted carpeting in office buildings after water exposure is a necessary mitigative action to keep your business going after a disaster. Even if you have to close for restoration temporarily, our SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills team works round-the-clock to get your doors back open. Call today at (818) 991-6292.

I Want a Say in My Business’s Recovery -- Is There a Way to Prepare for Collaborative Water Damage Restoration in Agoura?

10/11/2021 (Permalink)

SERVPRO employs a variety of methods to dry your business, and enabling you to stay open.

Respectful and Transparent Communication Are Essential Components of SERVPRO’s Relationship with Commercial Customers in Agoura, Sharing the Challenge of Water Damage Restoration

Business owners in Agoura often have a “take-charge” type of personality. Because of this, they perhaps struggle more during the restoration period after a disaster if they feel a loss of control. Finding a disaster recovery firm that prefers to work closely and on an equal footing with commercial customers is a plus. When coordinated constructively, this partnership results in a high level of success and customer satisfaction and often translates into more rapid project completion.

Can Water Damage Restoration Be Structured to Permit at Least Limited Continued Operation?

Many are all too familiar with the statistics that warn an Agoura business might not recover from water damage if restoration lags. Your distribution center needs to move inventory to waiting customers. Loading and delivery can only continue if your restoration company understands your operations and adapts the mitigation and remediation agenda to permit a controlled rendition of “business as usual.” Our managers are creative within the constraints of best practices and are more than willing to devise a plan that allows restoration and operations to occur concurrently.

How Can We Create a Separation of the Active Restoration and Our Business Operations?

SERVPRO is familiar with setting up a flexible series of smaller water extraction and drying areas during a project. Useful in any restoration, the commercial application can be a business saver if planned and executed well. Every commercial building has different configurations, so we depend on you to know your site well and share pertinent information with our project manager. Once we identify together with a space where your staff can continue working in at least a limited way, our crew gets busy:

• Erecting baffles and barriers to prevent the flow of water into your designated workspace
• Identifying containment areas where we can extract water and start structural drying safely
• Using existing doors and partitions if robust enough to separate the area
• Wrapping space with 1.6 mil polyethylene and adding air scrubbing technology inside to seal perimeters and filter and vent contaminated airborne debris

Other tools and procedures we utilize to remove standing water include:

• Pumps and truck-mount extractors
• Wanding at the dry edges of carpeting if in the space to mitigate spread, and then switching to weighted extractors to dry carpeting in place, following the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) best practices

• Periodically testing structures and fixtures for moisture presence and levels
• Using moisture data to determine drying goals

Our drying plans include:

• Striking a balance of air movement, temperature, and humidity to facilitate evaporation of absorbed moisture
• Setting up air movers and dehumidifiers that we trust you and your staff to allow to operate until the achievement of the drying goals

What About Pre-Planning? Can We Get Together on a Proactive Disaster Plan?

We urge our commercial customers to consider working with us to develop an Emergency READY Profile and Plan to streamline the response if water or other damage happens on your business property. The purpose of the ERP is to create a concise, digital plan to respond when a property damage crisis arises. An experienced project manager travels to your commercial building to do an assessment. We learn from you about how your business operates, how you store supplies and inventory, what the blueprint of all your working spaces looks like, and where critical equipment and business records are located. Armed with that information we:

• Evaluate the potential vulnerabilities of your property to a range of disasters
• Identify strengths (disaster-related) in your current circumstances
• Prepare recommendations based on the above to help you limit exposure in the event of a water disaster

You can add details through the use of our mobile app, sharing:

• Contact information about vendors and contractors who developed and installed your equipment and systems
• Your determination to appoint us as your designated restoration company
• Your priorities in the case of a water or other disaster
• Designated employees, family members, or other individuals who can act for you if you are not available during all or any part of the restoration process

Your partnership with SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills during water damage restoration ensures a successful outcome. Your strong business skill set proves to be an excellent fit for our training and experience. Call us at (818) 991-6292 for immediate assistance after damage or explore an ERP.

Commercial water damage restoration is a job for SERVPRO. We use the latest equipment for every job.

Protecting Rooms with Fast Extraction for an Agoura Hills Hotel

There are many concerns that the owner of an Agoura Hills hotel should have when faced with spreading water loss effects. With the speed that many of these water damage effects can move from the source throughout the building, many units that you have for guests can quickly become damaged or compromised and uninhabitable to potential or current guests.  Immediately addressing the effects of water loss incidents can be beneficial to your business in multiple ways.

When a Shared Wall Allows Mold into Your Agoura Hills Store

7/19/2021 (Permalink)

Shared walls mean water damage next door can bring mold into your business. Inspect the shared areas often for signs of damage.

Take Care of Mold Damage Before It Becomes a Problem in Your Commercial Space

You have poured everything into your Agoura Hills retail store. Even though you work hard to keep up with everything, making sure the store itself stays clean and free of potential problems, there is always the potential for something to go wrong. You might not even realize how much your store might be at the mercy of adjacent properties before a problem has already started.

If an adjacent store or property has recently fallen victim to flooding or water damage that impacted your shared wall, moisture from this incident can also affect your location. Once the mold has started to grow uninhibited from the present water, it can be a problem that compounds and gets exponentially worse. Professional remediation services can assist you in restoring the mold damage to your Agoura Hills store, but it is imperative to act quickly.

Mold Inspections, Remediations, and Removal

Our SERVPRO specialists are thoroughly trained in mold remediation and restoration services that exceed the standards required for certification through the IICRC. Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and our years of experience, the technicians we dispatch to your store can work quickly to resolve an issue like this that threatens your business.

Ideally, our goal is to mitigate your damage in profit by working quickly to remediate the mold damage in several ways. First, we have to remove the fungus's food source by drying up the water present in the affected areas. Scrubbers are used to clean the surfaces growing mold colonies to remove them entirely.

Deodorization is critical in a store because your customers may quickly note the presence of mold based on its characteristic musty scent. Often the equipment of choice for this process by our SERVPRO technicians is a fogger. The dense chemical compound can disinfect and deodorize affected surfaces, floors, and stock you have in your store. The process neutralizes odorous molecules and leaves behind no scent at all.

Mold damage can be a massive problem for your business, stretching far beyond the potential health effects resulting from exposure. Resolve this problem quickly by calling SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills. Our mold remediation specialists can be reached anytime at (818) 991-6292.

What Flood Restoration Steps Follow After Extraction? 

Pooling is enough of a threat to area businesses, even with the fast response of our SERVPRO team to offer water removal. Because flooding can overwhelm communal areas fast, even mitigative actions like water removal are often not enough. Installing containment barriers can prevent the spread of standing water. Simultaneously, water removal gets underway but can also allow the restoration process and equipment to remain in specifically designated zones so your business can stay open in part while cleaning continues.

What Damage Can Burst Pipes Do in Agoura Businesses? 

Burst pipes can allow for hundreds or even thousands of gallons of clean water into your commercial property. Because much of the plumbing network for your building gets hidden in the wall cavities, a breach in this system can spread into multiple rooms quickly as this pooling moves. Water removal is among the first steps and stages to restoring these immediate effects by burst pipes and ceiling leaks. Porous materials like drywall and carpeting can deteriorate after prolonged moisture exposure, so we utilize efficient evaporative tools and instruments like air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers for moisture and water removal from affected surfaces.

• Mold growth brings the potential for health effects, which is amplified if your staff enters the building before proper cleaning is complete. While there are a few products on the market for control and reduction of mold, nothing compares to the EPA-registered anti-microbial and cleaning agents that SERVPRO stocks on our Green Fleet of vehicles. 

Extraction is Vital for Any Flood Damage Project 

Fast action to begin extracting all standing water is imperative for any Agoura commercial or residential flooding situation. Any moisture left to fester for too long brings the potential for mold growth and the onset of foul or musty odors. Our crew will: 

• Remove any solid debris, such as mud, silt, and flood-damaged content and building materials.
• All items removed for disposal or packed out to be cleaned off-site get carefully inventoried for your records and ours.
• Any salvageable surface areas touched by floodwater get treated using EPA-registered anti-microbial solutions.

Extraction commences by way of tools and equipment carefully selected by our crew chief. This may include powerful truck-mounted extractors and submersible pumps.

Is the Carpeting Within Our Office Area a Total Loss? 

Whenever there is significant contamination within the floodwater, it is better to remove all carpeting and padding below thoroughly to replace it with all-new materials. If we deem carpeting salvageable, we use several tools to facilitate water extraction, such as: 

• Truck-mounted or portable extractors
• Weighted extractors, also known as rovers that use the weight of the technician to get moisture up and out of the carpeting
• Light-wand or carpet wand extractors 

For any commercial space areas with hard surface flooring, we also have squeegee wands to help execute faster water removal. 

How is Drying Handled? 

Once cleaning completes, your building and any of the remaining salvageable contents must dry. Whether open-air drying or drying equipment gets used depends on a variety of factors, such as: 

• Power availability
• Whether the ventilation and heating systems of your commercial building are functional
• The level of moisture content within your impacted materials 

SERVPRO brings a range of drying equipment to each flood water cleanup project, including dehumidifiers, fans, auxiliary heaters, and more. We also check on all aspects within the flood zone and just outside of it using moisture meters to monitor moisture content. This monitoring continues throughout the drying phase to ensure we are on the right track to achieving our goals. 

When the situation permits, we can open up windows and doors to create the optimum airflow for natural drying. Should the structural materials be allowed to dry naturally, we must thoroughly check moisture content before moving into the rebuilding phase. It is important to note that natural drying can take longer if the temperatures are not ideal. Either way, taking the time to verify that all materials have gotten sufficiently dried is critical to cutting back on future issues, such as microbial and fungal growth. 

SERVPRO is here from start to finish to ensure your commercial property gets returned to preloss condition. You can count on us to coordinate professional controlled demolition to remove any unsalvageable materials for full replacement with brand-new materials. This includes drywall installation, flooring replacement, carpet installation, painting, and much more.

My Town Experienced a Flood but Only Part of My Business Flooded- What Should I Do?

After your home suffers flood damage, you need a team of professionals to assist you with cleanup. Call SERVPRO right away! We are always available.

SERVPRO Flood Restoration Specialists Can Create Drying Zones to Target Only Impacted Areas of Your Agoura Business.

Flooding for an Agoura business does not mean that your company is doomed forever, especially if only a portion sustained damage. SERVPRO technicians establish drying zones to target only the affected areas of the structure and its interior. We understand that walking into your office and seeing the break room flooded from an intense summer storm can hinder the office productivity and impact your daily business. We understand that by targeting only the loss-area you can run the rest of your office as normally as possible. 

What is a Drying Zone? 

A drying zone is just like it sounds; the affected area of your Agoura business can be sectioned off by sealing plastic curtains (polypropylene 6-mil in thickness) along entry-ways. This is particularly effective with flood damage in an office suite setting so that you can still function while the impacted area dries. This way, technicians can control the humidity and temperature in the drying zone to expedite the process while allowing free movement of people and air in other areas. High humidity can also damage electronic equipment, fixtures and furniture.

What Are Some Things to Consider in Drying Zones?

• Air movement equipment facilitates dry air traveling across wet building materials.
• Dry air in the drying zone stays dry and does not become tainted with outside humid air.
• A drying chamber between the affected and unaffected areas allows a place for SERVPRO technicians to dry contents without bringing the items into the untouched area. 

There are times when flooding is severe, and many contents sustain damage. In those cases, the items may require attention in an offsite storage facility to aid in their restoration. For 24/7 assistance after a flood, contact SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292.

What is the Fastest Way to Get Water Out of the Floor of a Gym in Agoura?

5/21/2020 (Permalink)

When commercial water damage is the issue, call SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292.

SERVPRO has the extraction equipment and training to turn around any size water loss to an Agoura property

When water damage happens in a commercial property, the cleanup needs to begin rapidly, so the business has as little downtime as possible during the restoration services. Failure to act quickly can result in bigger issues such as mold or foul odors to deal with on top of the water.

Can Carpet on Concrete Get Reinstalled After Commercial Water Damage Cleanup?

Commercial water damage in an Agoura gym needs rapid responses for the best outcome. The materials that make up the carpet used in a gym or other public use business are part of what determines how restorable an item is. Other considerations include:
    •    Whether or not mold is present
    •    Length of time water exposure occurred
    •    How degraded the water on-site is

Restoration Steps in Commercial Properties

SERVPRO techs put safety for all first during cleanup from water loss and tape off the loss area to avoid dangerous situations such as slip and fall accidents. The carpet in most gyms gets made from easy-to-disinfect materials such as latex or rubberized coatings and also repels water. This makes the potential for reuse after cleaning in the property owner's favor. SERVPRO technicians extract the water and use their equipment to track the migration path to ensure nothing gets missed during cleanup. Then they dry the loss area and hand clean all surfaces to get the gym ready for patrons once again.

When commercial water damage is the issue, call SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292. The certified technicians show up quickly and are available 24/7 to restore your property from any size water loss.

Concerted Efforts Resolve Commercial Water Damage at an Agoura Family Owned Pub.

2/16/2020 (Permalink)

Water damage to your Agoura pub can be a very frustrating situation, SERVPRO will be there to back you.

Let SERVPRO help resolve your Agoura water damage.

The proprietor of a local family-owned pub in Agoura had a rough time when water supply lines within the facility burst, leaving contents soaked and floors covered in inches of water. The employees did what they could to salvage the situation, but it was not enough to manage the circumstance, so they called SERVPRO.

It was a severe case of commercial water damage at the Agoura pub since the leak brought down the ceiling with gallons of water, which accumulated as the workers took time to locate the main shut-off valve. The water collected on the main floor, up to an inch deep. Considerable efforts to extract, clean, dry, and patch up the affected areas was necessary to restore normal operations at the entertainment joint.

When our SERVPRO crew arrived at the loss site, we noticed that all the contents were still in the flooded area. The only precaution workers had managed, was to lift the chairs, and other light furniture from the floor, placing them on top of tables and other elevated surfaces. Our crew chief decided that making a partial move out was a priority to protect contents from the high humidity levels occasioned by the water spill.  A storeroom at the back of the pub that the water spill did not affect provided the necessary storage space for the move-out.

For the owner, fast restoration of normal operations was as crucial as proper restoration considering all the employees were off work. As a family-run business, the welfare of the staff is vital to the owners. Our SERVPRO team could cater to that speedy removal with our high-efficiency equipment, including a truck-mounted water extractor. We also brought enough technicians to the loss site to manage all aspects of the restoration, including cleanup and moving contents back to their original locations, making it, "Like it never even happened."

Water loss incidents can ruin a good week for business. Call SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292 to help. We are available 24/7.

The Permeance of Materials and Commercial Flood Damage in Agoura

Flooding in Commercial businesses can often require several technicians to ensure that the job is completed as efficiently as possible. Smaller private residencies can need urgent assistance; however, as the property manager of a bar or restaurant, temporary closure due to flooding has a significant impact on revenues. Longer-term closures can affect the reputation of your restaurant, which is essential to successfully running an independent business in this community.

Our commercial flood damage team here in Agoura is capable of providing the human resources and equipment to get your business back on track. In a restaurant, floodwaters do not just affect the structure but also the furnishings and contents. These can be expensive to buy new, which is why SERVPRO crew chiefs have a mandate to restore items rather than replace them.

By understanding different materials and their response to water exposure, SERVPRO can utilize advanced cleaning techniques to salvage contents. Carpeting and upholstery are highly permeant materials meaning that they absorb moisture quickly. When contamination is present, they may also absorb contaminants requiring special cleaning or disposal. By testing materials, we can ensure they get the right treatment to make a full recovery. Cheaper materials, like thin carpets, may be cheaper to replace than to restore.

When large bodies of water enter a property, they can significantly raise humidity levels. Vapor barriers used in vinyl wallpapers prevent water from escaping but can result in air bubbles appearing. SERVPRO can wash, rinse, and dry vinyl using a cleaning solution. Our essential cavity drying equipment can prevent bobbling to appear on wallpapers so long as we can apply them in time.

There are primary and secondary damages that can occur as a result of flooding. Primary damages may include carpet delamination, buckling of wooden floors, or rust. Secondary damages are humidity related and cover ceilings, walls, and in some cases, microbial growth control. SERVPRO prevents primary damages by using air-moving equipment and extraction. Secondary damages can be controlled through dehumidification and training in Psychrometrics.

Get your business back sooner rather than later. Contact SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292.

An experienced crew chief can stay in contact with you throughout service. We do this to ensure that, where possible, we can work together so that we can meet your needs, budget, and timeframe.

We complete an assessment of a flooded structure in a time-efficient manner. At SERVPRO, we call the assessment process a scoping procedure. Crew chiefs can examine the structure for weaknesses, water contamination, or potential hazards. Large volumes of water can exert significant pressure on walls, ceilings, or flooring, which can be both dangerous and damaging. If you need specialized services like document recovery or electronics, we can safely remove these from the structure during scoping and begin mitigating against further damage.

Our general method of the removal of floodwaters is by pumping out the standing water, before moving in to remove the residues, clean and dry the affected area. When standing water levels are above two inches, we use submersible gas pumps; beneath two inches, we use specialized water extractors. Industrial cleaning agents can tackle potential staining or discoloration of furniture and walls. Proper drying equipment can be deployed overnight to reduce the likelihood of expensive, secondary damages.

Commercial Water Removal Technicians In Agoura Hills Talk About Drying And Deodorizing

If moisture ever finds its way into your Agoura Hills yarn shop, many of your building materials and contents could get damaged. Once your products and structural components get wet, it is important to call in a professional company such as SERVPRO to conduct commercial water removal. Once things get wet inside a building, the relative humidity level indoors increases. Once there is an elevated level of water vapor in the air, moisture can easily soak into porous materials that are located far from the original leak. Since your yarn store sells a large number of porous materials such as fabrics, drying out contents and deodorizing them could become a large part of your commercial water removal project.

If any of your fabrics get wet after a leak, our SERVPRO technicians can take extra steps to return moisture levels to normal. During most commercial water removal projects in Agoura Hills, we set up a combination of air movers and dehumidifiers. The fans create air circulation inside the building that pushes wet air that has evaporated from materials away from the surface so more moisture can evaporate from the affected substances. The dehumidifiers then pull moisture from the atmosphere and dispense it in liquid form. If several of your products get affected, then we can set up extra dehumidifiers that can help dry out wet porous materials.

If your products retain moisture after water damage there is a chance that the fabrics can hold in mildew-like smells. Sometimes even after a structure has been dried how unpleasant aromas still exist. The first step to any deodorization process is to remove the source of the smell. Any wet materials that seem to be the source of the odors get removed, but if the source is your products that can be saved, then we can take steps to remove the malodor particles that penetrated your contents.

Most deodorization processes involved masking and pairing agents. Masking agents attempt to cover up foul odors with more pleasant scents and get added to cleaning chemicals. Pairing agents chemically combine with the malodor particles and neutralize them. These often get dispensed using an Ultra-low volume fogging machine. If you ever suffer from a water leak at your yarn shop, call SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292 24/7.

The Importance Of Moisture Sensors In Agoura Hills During Our Water Damage Restoration Process

12/3/2018 (Permalink)

If water ever enters your Agoura Hills sewing shop, the moisture can ruin many of your products and your building's structural components.

Commercial Water Damage Technicians In Agoura Hills Talk About Moisture Sensors

If water ever enters your Agoura Hills sewing shop, the moisture can ruin many of your products and your building's structural components. Once water enters your place of business, it is wise to call in a professional commercial water damage restoration company like SERVPRO. Whenever a pipe breaks or an appliance malfunctions, many gallons of water can get pumped into your store and increase the moisture levels of the materials that make up your building's structure and contents. It can be tricky to tell if certain items inside your shop got negatively affected by moisture or not. To find all of the wet areas inside your sewing store, we always use advanced technology to detect moisture in building materials and in the air that helps us figure out the severity of your commercial water damage situation.

Items can get ruined if they come into direct contact with water or when the relative humidity indoors rises. Whenever mitigating commercial water damage problems in Agoura Hills, our SERVPRO technicians' goal is to prevent secondary issues caused by moisture in the air from occurring. We know that elevated humidity levels can cause damage to many of your store's products. We also know that mold can form on organic substances that stay wet for more than 48 hours. To prevent elevated humidity levels from causing problems and mold from growing, we extract moisture then set up drying equipment to rapidly dry out your contents and structural components.

To figure out the best way to rapidly dry out your structure, we start by test the moisture content in your contents and building materials. We figure out which sections of your carpet are wet by using a moisture sensor that has a handle and two metal probes and lights up and makes a noise when moisture is found. To test moisture content in wood and drywall, we use a moisture sensor that has a digital display and a metal probe. We hammer the probe into the wood or drywall, and we get either a percentage or parts per million moisture content reading.

We take readings in both affected and unaffected areas to determine our drying goals. If your sewing shop ever suffers damage from a water leak, call SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills at (818) 991-6292 any day of the week.

Keep the Coffee in the Cup and the Water Off the Floor in Your Agoura Hills Cafe--Call SERVPRO for Water Damage and Restoration

Plumbing Leak Fixed--Time to Call SERVPRO for Water Cleanup and Damage Restoration 

Sometimes accidents can happen in your business during closed hours while you are not there to help stop them, like water damage. Upon arriving in the morning to set up for opening in a couple of hours, you discover the bathroom has water leaking out from under the door. One of the pipes underneath the sink leaked throughout the night, and now the tile floors and the walls are wet. Once a plumber leaves you with a service bill, you may be unsure of what to do next.

However, it is essential for you to call for a professional remediation company immediately; the sooner they can handle the water damage in your Agoura Hills cafe, the better it is for the survival of your property and commercial interest. If water should stay for a prolonged time, it can damage the floor and walls inside of your restroom. Not to mention that it can also damage the wooden structure that cradles the bed of your sink. Additionally, the longer water stays in one place, the higher the chance there is for a mold colony to develop and grow. You should never leave water damage to chance.

Depending on the severity of the issue, this process could include extraction with any number of tools.

Water Damage Can Affect Multiple Residents at Your Agoura Hills Apartment Complex

3/28/2018 (Permalink)

When facing water damage in an apartment complex, it is best to bring in professional water damage restoration technicians. Contact SERVPRO quickly.

SERVPRO Technicians Remediate Large or Small Scale Commercial Water Damage  

Depending on its size, dozens or more families could depend on the apartment building that you own in Agoura Hills. When a water emergency threatens even one of these units in the place, several adjoining properties could also subsequently be in jeopardy. Finding yourself in this position requires you to move quickly and to respond to the occurrence with professional restoration services.
 
Unfortunately, you might not always be aware of the problem when it occurs, as many residents might choose to attempt to handle the commercial water damage in their Agoura Hills apartment without making you aware of the issue. Often the time that you hear about an issue is when it has already presented itself in another apartment sharing a common wall. By this point, the damage could be widespread and cause structural damage to the entire building.
 
Our experienced SERVPRO professionals get to work right away in assessing the full scope of the damage to the property and work to discover where the problem originated (or continues to originate from). Locating the source helps to ensure that further damage does not result and that the job can get appropriately restored this time around.
 
Often our team relies on thermal imagery to see inside of walls and into flooring and ceilings to determine the full reach of the water. This process determines the kind of equipment that gets used to pull moisture and present water from all of the affected areas. For water trapped inside of walls, our SERVPRO injectidry system uses several points to force air into this space and dry it all. Floors with deep water penetration can get restored using our large drying mats.
 
The objective in all of this is to ensure that compounding damage does not occur. While water damage alone can present some significant threats to residents and the structural integrity of the building, allowing mold damage to occur on top of this can escalate the situation significantly.
 
When any disaster occurs in an apartment building, several units are going to be at risk to see some of the symptoms and effects. You can trust our SERVPRO of Agoura / Calabasas / Hidden Hills team to help you clean up the mess efficiently, and get your building back to its optimal conditions promptly. Call us today at (818) 991- 6292.
