Why Chose SERVPRO of South Rancho Cucamonga

SERVPRO VAN

-- Knowledgeable: Anyone who is certified by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification has to pass a rigorous set of exams. This means you can trust your professional to know how to handle even the most complex flooding situation. Your team's certification may make them better suited to handle content cleaning, mold removal, and other secondary tasks related to cleaning up after a broken pipe.
-- Ethical: The certification also ensures your team adheres to a certain code of ethics. This code may ensure no corners are cut when doing a water cleanup. If a team cuts corners, your restoration may not be as complete as you thought it was.
-- Insured: Before a company can receive the certification from the IICRC, the businesses must prove that it is fully and properly insured. Working with an insured business benefits you because it relieves some of the financial risks of having workers in your building. Flooding can weaken structures or cause mold growth, but an insured business takes the responsibility for these risks.
-- Licensed: Some restoration businesses follow storms across the country. These companies may not have local or state licenses, which mean they don't know the local codes. A certified business, however, must meet all license requirements

Can Kitchenware Get Reused After a Fire?

4/27/2022 (Permalink)

When it comes to cleaning up after a fire in a Rancho Cucamonga home, a much-loved dishes set can be something a homeowner has their heart set on using again. There are some factors to consider before the dinnerware can get reused, such as:

• If the dishware absorbed heat, it could contain fine cracks that may not be visible before cleaning, so there is no way to predict the outcome until the piece gets cleaned
• Dishes covered in greasy, wet smoke residues have a great possibility of stress cracks due to the high heat of this type of fire
• Crystal and china are delicate and get gentle cleaning by hand as the acidic nature of the soot can etch the surface
• Off-site ultrasonic immersion cleaning
• Smoke particles can get removed through the use of canned (compressed) air or a soft brush

Types of Mold

2/10/2022 (Permalink)

You should not be surprised to know that mold is pretty common. 

Alternaria

Alternaria spreads quickly from the outdoors and usually enters the house through poor ventilation or HVAC units. It also grows under sinks where the pipes leak, and it spreads quickly throughout a home.

Aureobasidium

If you see "pink" mold, it's usually Aureobasidium. It grows on virtually all surfaces, including wallpaper and painted surfaces.

Botrytis

Usually found in bathrooms without ventilation, Botrytis requires a lot of moisture and humidity.

Chaetomium

Commonly found on drywall, Chaetomium has a decidedly musty smell.

Cladosporium

This mold can grow in colder temperatures and often prefers fabrics, carpets, and wood surfaces.

Penicillium

This type of mold grows anywhere that may have been damaged by water (especially carpets, wallpaper, or mattresses). It's usually blue or green. We all know the petri dish story.

Stachybotrys chartarum

Traditionally called "black mold," this nasty, slimy mold grows anywhere its damp (and stays damp). Stachybotrys has a particularly musty odor that makes it easy to identify. 

Serpula lacrymans

Usually, if your wood is rotting out, it's because of Serpula lacrymans. It's yellow in color.

Trichoderma

This hardy variety of mold grows on carpets, wallpapers, and wet surfaces. Trichoderma should be taken very seriously.

Ulocladium

These types of fungi rely on water to grow, so it's usually found in flooded homes. It's usually found on the walls.

What do HEPA filters do?

2/9/2022 (Permalink)

HEPA Filter

HEPA stands for high-efficiency particulate air. A HEPA filter works by filtering air and trapping dangerous particles. The small mesh design of the equipment helps trap smoke, pollen, dander and other fine toxic particles that traditional filters miss. The HEPA filter was designed in similar fashion to operate the same way a water filtration system works, but for air filtration.

At SERVPRO, we use only the highest quality HEPA filter machines in order to fully eradicate mold and other toxic particles from the air. It is a vital component to purifying the toxins that pollute the air we are breathing every day. SERVPRO of South Rancho Cucamonga uses equipment with a HEPA filters .

Understanding Black Mold

2/8/2022 (Permalink)

The microscopic spores reproduce quickly, attacking organic material. Left alone, they could spread among rooms, creating a major sanitation..

-Household Cleaners like bleach won’t do the job.

-Organisms can permeate into porous objects, digging in quite deep. Sprays and liquid chemicals may not reach the entire contamination, leaving the surface looking better but not eliminating the mold and it will eventually return to the same area.

- In nature, the spores eat away at logs and branches. Inside, this is troubling as the organisms could feed off of paper, drywall, ceiling tiles and some flooring. When that happens,mold remediationshould occur, tearing out absorbent items that show infestation.

-Mold can't spread without water. It is the essential ingredient; thus, strive to keep flood exposure and humidity levels low. Run fans and the air handler. Wipe up spills immediately.

Make sure to work with mold remediationprofessionalswhen you detect mold in your home.

Here at SERVPRO of South Rancho Cucamonga, we’re passionate about preparedness. As we head into the 2021 summer season, we recommend homes and businesses prepare power outage kits for the instance they find themselves without power.

Kits should include things like water, canned food, a can opener, flashlights and batteries. Food and water rations should be enough for each person in your household or place of business for 5 days.

To start a power outage kit, grab an old backpack or duffle and add in plenty of bottled water, battery-operated radio and clock, flashlight for each member of your household including extra batteries, non-electric can opener, and list of emergency phone numbers including family and friends and a first aid kit.

Water Damage

When the certified technicians work on any water loss event in a home, they bring a diverse array of equipment and experience. Their knowledge enables them to limit the loss and return properties to their pre loss condition using the latest advances in the restoration sciences industry. 

Effective Drying Takes Care of Several Issues

After water loss in the home, SERVPRO of South Rancho Cucamonga technicians work to extract water and move quickly to dry the property.

Technicians monitor properties and take readings to determine humidity levels and set drying goals. They scope the area during and after the drying phase to ensure the attainment of the air quality goals.  

Can the Water in the Home Be Too Deep?

Residential Water Damage Mitigation

Initial Inspection

The damages were caused by a broken pipe located in the upstairs bathroom affecting cabinets and upstairs sub floor. The drying equipment was placed for a few days. We had to remove part of  the kitchen ceiling in order to dry the studs.

Our client was really happy with the results.

Regardless of its source, such water may adversely impact your home. In the discussions below, SERVPRO of South Rancho Cucamonga describes the dangers of water damage and some of the various means and ways of mitigating them.

Carpets are highly absorbent. They easily soak up plenty of water which subsequently weakens its fabrics. If the situation is left to go on unabated, this may often lead to the diminished overall lifespan of the carpets. This means that your carpets can end up being obsolete before their time.

If you experience a similar situation call SERVPRO of South Rancho Cucamonga at (909)758-0189.

We see disasters everyday... and one of the saddest things is when people don't have rental insurance and loose everything.  If you have questions about rental insurance you should speak to an agent for more information.

Top myths and the facts—about renters insurance:

1. The landlord's insurance covers your possessions. Don't count on it. Most landlords' insurance covers only the building and damages due to negligence. 
2. Renters insurance is expensive. In this case, the numbers speak for themselves. The average renters policy costs just $12 a month for up to $30,000 in personal property coverage. That's solid coverage for less than the cost of a couple of cups of coffee a week.
3. Still concerned about price? Your insurer will work with you to find the combination of coverage and costs that suits your needs. You might even qualify for a discount by taking some simple home safety precautions or purchasing another policy, such as auto insurance, with the same insurer.
4. You don't need insurance if your stuff isn't expensive. Most renters' belongings cost more than they think. 
5. Think that number is too high? Take a moment to add up the approximate cost of your computer, television, stereo, furniture, jewelry, and clothing. If a fire gutted your apartment tomorrow, would you have the cash to replace it all?
6. Renters insurance covers only your possessions. In fact, renters insurance covers much more than just your personal property: The average policy also includes up to $100,000 in liability coverage. That means in the event of a covered loss your insurer will help cover the costs if you're held responsible for injuring another person or damaging another person's property, including your landlord's. 
7. Renters insurance isn't hard to get. You can research providers, compare quotes, and even find an agent online

The IICRC Develops The Standards For The Restoration Industry

The IICRC has been the driving force in establishing the main industry standards and reference guides for professional carpet cleaning, water damage restoration and mold remediation. These IICRC standards take years to develop and require the coordination of experts in the field: manufacturers, industry organizations, insurance professionals, training schools, contractors, and public health professionals.

Every five years, the standards are reviewed and updated. The water damage restoration field changes rapidly with advancements in technology and science, and therefore the standards must evolve to keep pace.
