SERVPRO® of Jonesboro Offers NEW Cleaning Service

6/13/2024 (Permalink)

“Restore- Don’t Replace.” with SERVPRO of Jonesboro.

SERVPRO of Jonesboro is excited to announce that we are offering a NEW service! We are now certified Esporta operators!

SERVPRO of Jonesboro is known for our mitigation and cleaning services when it comes to items such as furniture (tables, desks and chairs,) but in homes and businesses that have been affected by a fire, water, mold and mildew, there are many soft textiles (linens, curtains, drapes, bedding, clothes that were hanging in closets) that were often damaged beyond our scope. These items would then be sent to an outside vendor for cleaning.

Now with the Esporta Wash System, SERVPRO of Jonesboro will be your one stop for cleaning of unique articles like sports equipment, household goods and a wide variety of clothing, including leather. This will provide 24 hour turnaround time on emergency items, resulting in happy customers! Insurance companies can benefit by using an Esporta certified company as it significantly reduces claim settlement costs by keeping the entire job “in-house” at SERVPRO of Jonesboro.

The Esporta Wash System utilizes hydraulic action to force contaminants out of the objects to be cleaned. The Hydraulic Action process utilizes chambers, or pockets, inside the drum, and items are placed in these pockets, held in place, and rotated. Proprietary detergents and water complete this patented and revolutionary cleaning process, guaranteeing the best, and safest, cleaning and restoration in the industry. Items that would have been previously deemed non-salvageable can now be restored! Laboratory results indicate that this process is five times more effective than traditional washing machines!

The motto of the Esporta system is “Restore- Don’t Replace.” And we couldn’t agree more at SERVPRO of Jonesboro. By offering this new service we’re aiming to provide quick turnaround and recover sentimental items that may have previously been lost due to extreme damage. This is just another way that we are working to always improve our restoration services and be the best in the game!

Tips from the SERVice PROfessionals: Protecting Your Property from Storm Damage

Trees and branches pose a significant risk during storms; thus, regular trimming can prevent potential damage to your property.

Protecting your property from storm damage is a critical concern for homeowners and businesses alike. As experts in restoration services, we understand the challenges and fears that come with facing natural disasters. Our aim is to provide you with professional advice and empathetic support to help mitigate the risks associated with storms. By taking proactive steps, you can significantly reduce the likelihood of enduring costly and emotionally taxing damages.

Firstly, it is essential to conduct regular inspections of your property. This includes checking the integrity of roofs, windows, and doors, which are the primary barriers against storm elements. Ensuring that these features are in good condition and properly sealed can prevent water from entering your property. Additionally, clearing gutters and downspouts is crucial to avoid water buildup that can lead to roof and foundation damage. For those in particularly vulnerable areas, investing in storm shutters or high-impact glass can offer an extra layer of protection against high winds and flying debris.

Another critical aspect is the maintenance of the surrounding environment. Trees and branches pose a significant risk during storms; thus, regular trimming can prevent potential damage to your property. Securing or storing outdoor furniture and decorations can also minimize the risk of these items becoming projectiles. Understanding your local flood risk and considering appropriate defenses, such as sandbags or permanent flood barriers, can be invaluable. Lastly, ensure that you have an up-to-date insurance policy that covers storm damage, providing you with peace of mind and financial protection.

As restoration experts, our commitment extends beyond the repair process. We are dedicated to empowering our clients with the knowledge and tools necessary to protect their properties and loved ones from the unpredictability of storms. We’re driven to understand and address your concerns, ensuring that you feel supported throughout every step of the preventative and restoration journey. Remember, preparation is key to resilience, and by taking these proactive measures, you can safeguard your property against the elements and minimize the impact of storm damage.

The SERVice PROfessional's Tools of the Trade

4/5/2024 (Permalink)

A dry sponge, moisture meter and infrared camera are common tools of the trade when working fire and water jobs.

As experts in the field, we understand the importance of using high-quality equipment to ensure efficient and effective restoration work.

One of the key tools of the trade when assessing water damage is a moisture meter. A moisture meter is a device that is used to help accurately measure the percentage of water, wetness or dryness, within a given material. Moisture meters can be invasive or non-invasive, meaning they do not have to penetrate the material. At SERVPRO of Jonesboro we use moisture meters with separate thermo hygrometers, meaning that while the moisture meter checks for wetness/dryness, the thermos hygrometer checks the temperature and relative humidity.

Another essential tool is an infrared camera. Infrared cameras are non-contact devices that detect thermal energy and then convert it into an electrical signal, which is then processed to produce an image. Infrared technology uses temperature to determine moisture, cooler temps indicate the material is wet while higher temps are dry. The term FLIR (which stands for “Forward Looking Infrared”) refers to the technology used to create an infrared image of a scene without having to “scan” the scene with a moving sensor, which is what was previously required. A moisture meter is always used to confirm the findings made with an FLIR camera.

A dry sponge is used to test for soot particles after fire damage and are ideal for cleaning surfaces where you can’t use water or solvents. By swiping the sponge across surfaces, we can see the accumulation of particles. A black or brown discoloration is indicative of fire-related particles and white or light gray is normal house dust. The uniqueness of the sponge is all in the cell structure, it is a vulcanized, non-toxic, natural latex rubber sponge. When the product was invented, it was called a chemical sponge, because, at the time, chemicals meant more cleaning power, but there are no actual chemicals within the sponge, and they are entirely safe for use on delicate surfaces.

These are just some of the tools we used every day at SERVPRO of Jonesboro. Investing in the right tools of the trade not only enhances the efficiency of our work but also showcases our expertise and commitment to restoring properties with care and precision.

Tips from the SERVice PROfessionals: Protecting Your Property from Water

One of the key ways to prevent water damage is to regularly inspect your plumbing system.

Water damage can be a homeowner's worst nightmare, causing not only financial strain but also emotional distress. As experts in restoration services, we understand the importance of prevention when it comes to water damage. By taking proactive measures, you can safeguard your home and belongings from potential harm.

One of the key ways to prevent water damage is to regularly inspect your plumbing system. Check for any leaks, drips, or signs of corrosion in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Addressing these issues promptly can help avoid more significant problems down the line. Additionally, installing a leak detection system can provide an early warning in case of any water-related emergencies.

Another crucial step in water damage prevention is proper maintenance of your home's exterior. Make sure your roof is in good condition, with no missing or damaged shingles. Clean out gutters and downspouts regularly to prevent water from accumulating and seeping into your home. Proper grading around your property can also help ensure that water flows away from the foundation, reducing the risk of flooding.

Remember, a little prevention now can save you a lot of headache later on.

Tips from the SERVice PROfessionals: Protecting Your Property from Fire

Pro Tip: Avoid overloading electrical outlets and extension cords and ensure that all appliances are turned off when not in use.

Although we are a fire and water restoration company, we would rather you prevent fires at your home and business. It is the best way to ensure the safety of your loved ones and your property. Fires can strike at any moment, and it is crucial to take the necessary steps to prevent them from happening. In this blog, we'll provide you with some valuable tips on how to keep your home and business safe from fires.

The first and most important step is to make sure that you have functioning smoke detectors installed throughout your home. Smoke detectors are the first line of defense and can alert you and your family in case of a fire. It's important to test them regularly and change the batteries at least twice a year. Because alarm sensors wear out, it is recommended to replace them at least every 10 years

Another important step is to avoid leaving cooking unattended. The kitchen is one of the most common places for fires to start, so it's essential to be cautious when cooking. Make sure that all flammable items are kept away from the stove and oven.

It's also important to have a fire extinguisher readily available in case of an emergency. Make sure that you know how to use it and that it is within reach. Furthermore, avoid overloading electrical outlets and extension cords and ensure that all appliances are turned off when not in use.

Remember that prevention is always better than restoring. By taking the necessary steps to prevent fires, you can ensure the safety of your loved ones and your home. Stay safe, and don't hesitate to contact us for any restoration needs.

SERVPRO Safety: Water and Mold Remediation; ladder usage, electrical encounters

1/8/2024 (Permalink)

Steve Singleton, our construction manager, discussing different SERVPRO safety procedures.

Our SERVPRO mitigation and reconstruction teams held a safety meeting at the start of the year to go over remediation reminders and protocol to safely handle water and mold jobs as well as general safety of using ladders and electrical encounters.

If a water loss is considered to be category 3 by a crew leader- meaning the water is grossly contaminated, containing bacterium, viruses, toxigenic (poison) or other harmful agents that can cause adverse reactions, our team will always wear required PPE such as gloves, boots, coveralls (Tyvek), eye protection and masks. HEPA air filtration (air scrubbers) and HEPA vacuuming will be required, with the possibility of containment of the area.

HEPA is a type of pleated mechanical air filter. It is an acronym for "high efficiency particulate air [filter]" (as officially defined by the U.S. Dept. of Energy) Filters meeting the HEPA standard must satisfy certain levels of efficiency.

If mold is present at a jobsite, containment and PPE will be required along with HEPA air filtration (negative air) and HEPA vacuuming with the possibility of using a HEPA air scrubber. SERVPRO crew leaders will take the lead in identifying the level of containment, getting approval, and implementing PPE and documentation.

Our construction manager, Steve Singleton, will be contacted for mold consultation. He has extensive knowledge in the industry due to his 12 IICRC certifications including: Master Water Restorer, Master Fire and Smoke Restorer, and Residential Mold Inspector. He also has 2 OSHA Health and Safety certifications and is a Licensed Asbestos Inspector. 

There are 5 levels of mold contamination, depending on the square foot of infestation. At 10 square feet of affected area, it is recommended to call a removal company to handle the clean up SAFELY. We would never want you to put yourself in danger. It’s best to let a professional handle a situation such as this. You can trust SERVPRO of Jonesboro to follow all the required protocols necessary to handle any unsafe water losses and mold infestations.

If you experience an emergency water loss or suspect mold, call us today to set up an inspection.
