5/3/2022 (Permalink)
When in need of additional warmth many people use a portable heater or space heater. While they provide extra heat space heaters are an alternate source of heat and aren't intended to be a primary heating source. Space heaters are responsible for 1/3 of home heat fires and 80% of home heat deaths. Be mindful of the safety tips below when using a portable heater or space heater not only at home but also in cold offices. As any heating element can catch fire, follow the safety tips below to ensure you/your family's safety.
- Never leave children or pets unattended near the heating element
- Keep 3' clearance from any flammable products (furniture,curtains,bedding, clothing)
- Always place heater on a stable surface ( to avoid tipping )
- Never use extension cords
- Always shut heater off when not in use
- Do Not leave on when going to bed or leaving the home
- Plug directly into a wall outlet never use a power strip
- Never pull by the cord to unplug (Unplug by the adapter)
- Be sure the cord isn't hot to touch, check for split wires
- Be sure to have a smoke alarm

Business Owners: Have You Planned For This?

Business owners, do you have a plan in place in the event of a disaster?
We often see how easy it is to get so caught up with running a business that many business owners forego an emergency plan because they are “too busy.” And while disasters and daily operations don’t usually mix, if the former happens, it usually interrupts the latter as well.
However, that doesn’t always have to be the case. By having an Emergency Ready Profile in place, you can make sure a potential business interruption is just a hiccup in daily operations.
While 50% of businesses never recover after a disaster, our ERPs help to navigate these kind of events without the frantic stress of finding key contacts and shut off valve locations by compiling this information beforehand and putting it all in one place. Whether that’s a binder or on our Emergency Profile app. You can find all the information you need with a quick turn of a page or a scroll on the screen.
Don’t wait until its too late to put a plan in place. Contact SERVPRO of Fall River today to schedule your FREE Emergency Ready Profile.

As we move further into Governor Baker’s Reopening Massachusetts’s plan, many businesses are reopening at higher capacity. As life returns to normal, we are still at risk for positive COVID-19 cases.

However, positive cases can still happen! If you’re notified of a positive case in your workplace, call SERVPPRO of Fall River to schedule a disinfection.

We do this by compiling a list of important information such as emergency contacts and shut off valve locations to cut down on response time and limit the extent of the damage.

Clean Environment

As businesses are preparing to go back into the office it is more important than ever to have a clean, healthy work environment which can impact business in more ways than you may think.
Having a tidy, professional appearance portrayed to customers and business associates, who frequent your business, is probably the most obvious benefit. A clean office space can portray your business as organized, competent and professional upon first impressions.

Even if your work space doesn't have frequent customer traffic a clean commercial space can improve business in many ways.
Here are a few ways routine commercial cleaning by SERVPRO can drive revenue & productivity for your business:
-Healtheir environment- keeping air & surface quality high reduces unanticipated employee ‘sick’ days.
-Improved morale & productivity in employees
-Safer work environment- Avoid and/or reduce: the number workers compensation injuries, spread of viruses and diseases.
-Regular disinfecting

Our Disaster Recovery Teams are on the front lines rebuilding Lousiana following the devastation of Hurricane Laura.
When it comes to average-sized homes suffering water damage, local SERVPROs such as SERVPRO of Fall River are so familiar with handling the challenges that arise when dealing with the restoration process that we could probably do it with our eyes closed (don’t worry, we won’t).
However, what about the challenges that come when restoring a 150,000 square foot facility following a disastrous fire? Or a 600,000 sq. ft. commercial building that’s been damaged by strong winds and storm damage. Or even a community that’s been devastated and destroyed after a hurricane. You know to call SERVPRO for your “contained” disasters. But who do you call when the world around you is turned upside down?
The answer is simple: it’s still SERVPRO.
Yes, SERVPRO franchises are independently owned and operated, but when it comes to rebuilding cities and regions after extreme losses, we work together like a well-oiled machine.
When hurricane season hits southernmost parts of the United States, when wildfires rage in California, or when cold fronts overwhelm the north, or even when your state of the art fire suppression system accidentally goes off in your facility, there is nothing we can’t handle. Call SERVPRO of Fall River for all your disaster needs, whether large or small, we have an army at our disposal.

At SERVPRO of Fall River, we understand that your loss is the loss that matters most. However, there are always some cases that stick with us long after we load up our equipment and leave after a job well done. One of those jobs happened on September 11, 2001.
Many SERVPRO franchises across the nation were called to help restore one of our country’s most important buildings, The Pentagon, after the terrorist attack on that fateful day. While we were honored to have been chosen as the clean-up and restoration company for such a significant assignment, we knew it was not a job only one franchise could handle.
This is why, just like many Americans banded together to help one another, SERVPRO franchises also combined forces to get the job done. When large disasters happen, it’s important to have the necessary manpower to restore and clean-up the mess as quickly and correctly as possible.

Did someone say "hairball"? Not anymore, thanks to SERVPRO of Fall River!
Recently, our techs were called to the rescue at a local veterinarian’s office. Thankfully it was not for a biohazard case! But what they saw was a true crime: dusty air ducts. Because of the nature of the business, pet dander and fur contributed to the excess amount of dust trapped in the vents.
We’re glad they called SERVPRO of Fall River to handle the cleanup and get the vents looking brand —or, you know, “like it never even happened!” Our techs walked out of that office breathing better and cleaner for the fur babies that walk in.

HEPA stands for high-efficiency particulate air. A HEPA filter works by filtering air and trapping dangerous particles.

The HEPA filter design is essentially similar to the way a water filtration system works.
SERVPRO of Fall River only uses the highest quality HEPA filter machines in order to fully eradicate mold and other particles from the air. It is a vital component to purifying the toxins that pollute the air we breathe. SERVPRO of Fall River uses equipment with a HEPA filter after sewage and similar category 2 and 3 losses, mold mitigation to remove the mold spores from to prevent health hazards as well as contamination of previously uncontaminated areas of the building, as well as biohazard cleanup jobs where a room or structure is contaminated.

Commercial Fire Damage
4/27/2018 (Permalink)
Coping with the aftermath of a fire can be chaotic for anyone, but for a business owner it can be even more stressful. The first instinct is to clean up and get back to the daily operations of running a business. Unfortunately fire damage cleanup can be a very involved, and complex process. SERVPRO helps businesses get back to the normal day to day operations by efficiently and quickly cleaning affected structure of the building and processing the fire damaged materials.
Fire damage is especially devastating for a business or commercial property. In addition to the fire and smoke damage, significant water damage from firefighting efforts and fire suppression systems may occur. Every hour spent restoring your business back to pre-fire condition is an hour of lost revenue and productivity. If your business experiences a fire loss, call the fire and water damage restoration experts and we’ll respond immediately to get you back to business.

How To Prevent Mold Problems in Your Commercial Property
4/24/2018 (Permalink)
A mold problem can be tricky to foresee. There are many places this common fungus likes to hide, and sometimes you don’t know mold growth is happening until it is a big enough problem to require professional remediation. There are a few things you can do to head it off at the pass, though. Mold prevention involves knowing the kind of environment mold likes and eliminating as many such environments as possible.
A Mold-Friendly Climate
Mold is always present, but it requires specific circumstances to settle and grow. There are four main criteria needed for rapid mold growth:
• Moisture
• Darkness
• Organic material
• Surface to grow on
Besides causing a major business interruption, a mold problem can present a serious health risk for people exposed at your commercial property. Mold infestations can be caused by minor water intrusions, like a slow roof leak or loose plumbing fitting. Every hour spent cleaning up is an hour of lost revenue and productivity. If you suspect your property has a mold problem, call SERVPRO of Fall River, who will respond quickly and work fast to manage the situation.
