Fungi and mold naturally occur in our environment.  In fact, over 100,000 kinds of fungi have been identified.  Fungi produce some very useful results.  Yeast is a type of fungi used in preparing breads, baked goods and other foods products, including some alcoholic beverages. The unique flavor of blue cheese is a result of mold. An edible mushroom is simply a type of fungi.

Even though some forms of mold can add value to our lives, other forms can be harmful.  Excessive amounts of mold, different types of mold, and/or exposure to molds may present health concerns for some people.

After the fire trucks leave, your home likely suffers from fire and smoke damage and extensive water damage from firefighting efforts. SERVPRO of Tacoma has the specialized fire restoration training needed to restore your home to pre-fire condition.

If you look closely, you will see that ceiling fan blades are bending down.

Most interior walls are built with drywall, which absorbs water.  Even a small amount of water at the base of the wall can become a big problem over time, affecting the framing materials behind the wall.

When drywall gets wet, it isn’t normally salvaged and will need to be replaced.  The longer the drywall is saturated, the chances are more likely that they will need to be replaced.

The key to dry wet walls quickly is to get air moving around them. 

By drilling holes, we can dry the wall cavity from the inside out. If the interior wall was wet for a short period, the wall cavity can be dried by the inside out by drilling holes at the base. Drilling holes allows efficient drying with minimal damage, reducing mitigation and rebuild costs.

Our technicians work in unusual areas. 

There was water damage upstairs and we needed to check to see if the water went through to the storage room below. The tight space didn't stop us!  The owner loved how thorough we were.

The break room in this Tacoma Construction company had a bottleless water cooler.  This type of water cooler is plumbed directly into the cold water line.  In this scenario it burst overnight flooding the break room and the other areas of the office. The owners were pleased to see that we were able to work around their schedule.  By working around schedules we were able to prevent excessive downtime in the business.

The kitchen fire caused so much heat it melted the blinds in the next room.  The homeowner was relieved at how quickly we arrived and how quickly we were able to clean the soot from the walls and ceiling.

Here is one of our technicians ready for mold mitigation.  At SERVPRO of Tacoma, it's always safety first with our team, and he is suited up and ready to go!

Today Kevin is introducing you to a Jet CXV Turbordryer...

A Jet CXV Turbodryer is a high powered airmover designed to help accelerate the drying of building structures and contents.  The unit is designed for maximum airflow with minimal amp draw, as well as versatility, durability and ease of use.  This is ideal for both commercial and residential use for drying things such carpets, walls and hard floor surfaces.

This unit can be set up two ways...one sitting upright resting on its two feet, and two, set on all three legs with the front grill facing down - this position directs air down at the floor for focused spot drying.

You may see a dehumidifier in your home if you've had a water loss. The dehumidifier sucks in moist air and condenses the water vapor, turning it to liquid. The water exits the machine through a tube to a predetermined drainage point, such as a bathtub or sink. In addition, the air that is sucked in is then heated and put back into the room. The dehumidifier speeds up the drying process for any wet materials, such as carpet or upholstered furniture. It also helps control moisture levels and humidity and can be used in homes, warehouses, businesses or any indoor location a water loss has happened.

This was a water damage in a home due to a fallen tree during a storm.We were quick to the scene and able to clean up the debris and dry out the structure before any secondary damage was able to occur. 

Fire damage in your home can be stressful, overwhelming, and often times, out of your control. This was a porch fire caused by lightning on Vashon Island. The interior of the home had significant smoke and soot damage. The homeowner was pleased at how well we were able to restore the home to pre-loss conditions "Like it never even happened."
