National Preparedness Month: Guidelines for our Ventura Community

9/21/2021 (Permalink)

Take the steps to be prepared BEFORE the situation arises.

Week 1: Make a Plan: Make it a family affair! Talk to family & friends about what that plan will be in case of an emergency. How will you communicate to each other to make sure everyone is safe?

Week 2: Build a Kit: Gather your supplies in one area that is easily accessible. Don’t forget to think about the kiddos and pets. If you have to stay in a shelter do you have enough snacks and activities for the little ones?

Week 3: Prepare for Disasters: Take a tour of your home. See if there are any potential obstacles in case you need to make a quick exit. Where is your home owner’s insurance policy? Have you reviewed it the last couple years? These checks will save you time in the long run, and they are low-cost, no cost preparedness

Week 4: Teach Youth About Preparedness: Talk to your little ones! It is never to early to be prepared. Review emergency numbers. What do they do if they get separated from you? Do they know your meeting point? Communication and practice are key for when emergencies arise.

How Does SERVPRO Know What I’m Going Through? Because We’ve Been There!

9/20/2021 (Permalink)

Here's the look of our leaking ceiling! Lucky for us, we are surrounded by SERVPRO Heroes!

Just two months ago, our very own SERVPRO of NW Ventura County got their own water damage surprise. Quiet morning like usual, when our office personnel started hearing soft tapping sounds. Before we knew it, water was pouring out of the ceiling! Pipe had burst and there was no stopping the flow of water.

After the initial feeling of panic. Our staff went into SERVPRO HERO MODE!

Here’s what we had to do.

#1: Stop the water source. Main water shut off was our best friend that day.

#2: Placed buckets to capture as much water as possible before it had time to spread throughout the office.

#3: Notified Property Management of the situation so they could make their own assessment on repairing the pipe. Plumber called out for repairs.

#3: Once the water stopped dripping it was SERVPRO assessment time. Our technician, using his moisture meter, marked the moisture path with blue tape. (Gives us a visual on the extent of damage)

#4: Demo: Ceiling that was physically damaged was removed along with wet insulation. Carpet was lifted and carpet padding was removed to allow carpet to reach drying standards. Carpet padding can retain moisture and typically doesn’t dry.

#5: Drying EQ: Air Movers and dehumidifier was placed to start the drying process. As we know too well in this industry, sitting water turns to mold real fast with no air flow.

#6: Day 3 Re-Assessment: By day 3-5 we have a good idea if materials are going to dry in place or not. Lucky for us our drywall and carpet reached its drying goal.

#8: Now that everything is dry, ceiling replaced and all is well

The Water Mitigation in our office took 3 days because we acted quickly. That is why you shouldn’t wait to call us. Don’t ever assume an area is dry by look or touch. When you assume, water will spread and your initial loss area, can double in size. This will elongate your drying time frame and make it more likely you’ll need costly demo and repairs.

So the next time you find yourself in a Water DISASTER, CALL SERVPRO of NW Ventura County 805-507-5507

WHY SERVPRO? We are SCIENTISTS!

10/5/2020 (Permalink)

As Leaders in the cleaning industry we are here to help! 805-507-5507

There is a lot of science that goes behind our products and procedures. At SERVPRO of Northwest Ventura County, we use that knowledge every day in our daily routine.

The Training is Rigorous

• Initial franchise training
• On-going web-based training 
• Stringent IICRC certification
• Hands-on training on the jobsite
• Lead-Safe training
• Subrogation Training

The Science We Use Everyday

 Electricity

• Amps and voltage, used to determine the power requirements for a job to avoid shortages and fire risk.
• GFCI’s (Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters) essential when working in a wet environment. Acts as a circuit breaker to shut off electricity in the event of a power surge.
• Power distribution boxes that convert 240-volt circuits into 120-volt circuits. Knowing about this is critical to ensure they have the right amount of power to run the correct equipment to get the job done, without going beyond amp capacities.

Equipment/Engineering

• Type of extraction tools & pumps required for each type of job. All dependent on factors such as suction, lift, fluid-type
• Air-movers: How many and what type for each job. Promotes air circulation for drying
• Dehumidifiers; desiccant or refrigerant and where to place. Works to remove moisture from the air and speed the drying process.
• Air Scrubbers: Assessing whether the environment calls for extraction of air pollutants, odors, or removal of mold spores.
• Type of generator for the job. Is there electric power at the site? Sometimes portable generators are required in order to have enough power for equipment.

Weather

• Measuring the relative humidity, temperature of air masses and understanding Equilibrium Moisture Content in materials.
• Creating negative pressure, in order to control cross contamination.
• Understanding Psychrometry, Condensation, temperature control and humidity control

     Chemistry

• Our Cleaning Agents & Products: Determining the right EPA approved chemicals for the job, the correct temperature and ratio. Understanding ingredients of chemical agents and their characteristics of nonionic, anionic, or cationic.

This is just a quick overview of what our technicians are trained to anticipate. Many ask the question “What is the best drying plan when Water Damage occurs?” and the truth is each job will occur in a different environment. At times outside factors can impede the drying process. Because of all these possible factors, there is no straight answer.

Our goal is to get you back to normal. This is why SERVPRO of Northwest Ventura County does not charge for initial inspections. CALL US 24/7 at 805-507-5507

September is National Preparedness Month and SERVPRO of Northwest Ventura County is here to help you set up a plan. Don’t wait until disaster is knocking at your door to have a plan ready. Disasters never wait for you, and NEVER wait for a convenient time.

*Emergency Alerts: Make sure you are set up to receive emergency alerts in your area. For Ventura County residents, check out Ready Ventura County for your VC Alert.

*Evacuation Plan: Start by creating a simple map with the layout of your home. Identify all exits and windows. Make a plan for both floors if you have a two story home. Have all evacuation routes covered. Have two routes in mind and discuss with your family members especially you’re your ones.

*Preparedness Kit: Create a kit that is tailor made for your family. What medical needs do they have if any. Here is a great website from the Department of Homeland Security to get you started.

*Shelter: Have a plan to either shelter in place OR shelter offsite. Check within your community for shelter locations. You may have a family member who lives out of town that may be able to accommodate you in an emergency. Whatever the case have a plan and make sure your family knows where they can find you in the event of an emergency.

*Communication Plan- If your electricity goes out, communication devices like computers and mobile phones can be unreliable. You may not be able to charge your phone and all your contacts will be unavailable. Have a hard copy of important numbers in your preparedness kit. Have a car charger ready. Note that text messages sometimes send when phone calls cannot get through. Text messages will also auto send when service is available again. Here is a great resource from ready.gov

White Mold, Green Mold, Black Mold What’s The Difference!?!

9/3/2020 (Permalink)

Here are a few examples of MOLD on different parts of a home. This is what happens when water is left to saturate into walls.

White Mold: Although white mold is not technically a mold type, you may notice mold that looks white and fuzzy. This usually marks mold in its early stages. You may find this mold growing on furniture, attics and wood framing, crawlspaces. Sometimes efflorescence can be confused for white mold. Efflorescence is the salt/mineral residue left behind when water moves through a concrete structure.

Green Mold: Green mold commonly falls under the name Trichoderma. It usually grows on plants and food however you will see it affect cellulose-containing materials. It is a light greenish color and is at times referred to as toxic house mold.

Black Mold: Black mold known as Stachybotrys or toxic black mold commonly grows on drywall and is a common site after water damage. Stachybotrys Chartarum falls under the Black Mold umbrella and can have a mix of Black and greenish tint. Check out the CDC website on information regarding Black Mold and your health.

Trained mold inspectors can determine what type of mold you have. Do not always assume solely based on color. Call us if you need a referral for mold testing. When it comes to removal, we’re here to assist!

SERVPRO takes mold very seriously and in some situations, a cleaning and sanitation of the area is all that is needed. However when mold exceeds 10 sq ft. you are going to want to call SERVPRO for removal. SERVPRO offers FREE Inspections, so if you are not sure and would like to get a professional opinion.

CALL US 805-507-5507

Call SERVPRO today for a free inspection for your business. 805-507-5507

Every business' mold damage scenario can be  different and require a different solution, but the general mold remediation process stays the same. The steps listed below explain the “typical” process:

Step 1 : Emergency Service. Contact SERVPRO of Northwest Ventura County@ 805-507-5507.

Step 2 : Inspection and Assessments.

Step 3: Mold Containment.

Step 4: Air Filtration.

Step 5: Removing Mold and Mold infested Materials.

Step 6: Cleaning Contents and Belongings 

Step 7: Restoration

Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.

• Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air, and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or on a pet.
• Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. 
• Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return. 
• Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
• Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.

SERVPRO - Water Damage Knowledge

Resedential and commercial water damage services 805-507-5507

WATER CATEGORIES

• Category 1 CLEAN:Water from a clean water source, like a fresh water line for a dishwasher. This water will not cause illness or any ill effects.
• Category 2 GRAY: Water that may cause illness through contact. It may have bacteria in it.
• Category 3 BLACK: Water that is highly contaminated. Contact can cause severe illness or death. Think sewage backup, an overflowing toilet, or storm waters.

Even though water may start out as Category 1, that doesn’t mean it will stay there. Any contamination that the water touches, such as dirty carpet or soil, can change your water damage Category to 2 or even Category 3.  Since standing water breeds bacteria, the longer the water is around, the worse the contamination of your property.

More contamination means that SERVPRO of Northwest Ventura County's restoration team will have to use more aggressive measures to clean your structure and property, and it might mean that soft furnishings, like your carpet, the carpet pad, or even furniture may have to be discarded for your safety.

Water damage can be dangerous and expensive, so preventing water damage is an important part of home maintenance. But if you know the basics of what to do once it happens, you can prevent it from doing its worst.
