Restoring Your Elkton Business Files

5/4/2022 (Permalink)

During a major fire or storm disaster, SERVPRO of Cecil County understands the complexities of your Elkton business go further than the structure itself.  During these types of disasters, content is often compromised such as your important office records.

While these files are often salvageable, it is best to prevent the loss of important files in the event of an emergency.  Place documents in an online platform such as Google Drive or Dropbox.  Storing and backing up your files electronically is a smart and time-saving way to help reduce the effect of a major event on your overall business.

For extensively damaged records, there are a few options that SERVPRO of Cecil County provides for recovering the files.  These options include Vacuum Freeze Drying.  This process of sublimation allows documents to be restored by turning the materials directly from a solid into a vapor, skipping the liquid stage.  Another method that we use is Gamma Irradiation, the process of cleaning and disinfecting documents that have been affected by bacteria.

There are several options for restoring your files, but the best option is to digitize the files in advance.  Preparing for a fire, water or storm event is the best action you can take in order to minimize and prevent damage for your business and its protocols.

Should your Elkton business suffer any type of damage to your property or content, SERVPRO of Cecil County can assist you with all facets of your business.  Our restoration team provides cleaning and recovery services for many forms of content, and we can even provide storage services while your facility is getting back to normal.  To learn more, give us a call at 410-620-3322!

Protecting Your Cecil County Business from Fire Damage

3/2/2022 (Permalink)

At SERVPRO of Cecil County, we understand that fire damage is not a topic that business owners like to discuss.  However, it is a necessary issue to address.  Preventative actions and emergency procedures should be discussed and put into place in order to keep your employees and clients safe.

By preventing and acting quickly in the event of fire damage, your property will suffer less substantial damage as well.  The National Fire Protection Association outlines several critical steps to follow regarding fire damage in your commercial building.

  • Fire alarms and a sprinkler system should be installed.
  • All employees should be informed of an evacuation plan with clear exits.
  • During a fire, the fire alarm should be pulled immediately to inform everyone inside the building.  The fire department will be alerted for the emergency response.

Our Emergency READY Profile Program is another option for helping you to be prepared in the event of fire damage in your business.  SERVPRO of Cecil County offers this free program to all commercial facilities in Cecil County.  Our professionals will assess your property and compile critical information that is needed during a disaster, including details such as water shut-offs, electrical components and the proper emergency personnel.

This information is easily accessible in a digital file for business owners so that you can receive immediate assistance and prevent further damage to the building.  SERVPRO of Cecil County is happy to offer this program in our local area.  Should your business suffer fire, smoke or soot damage, our fire restoration team is here to help!

5/6/2021 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Cecil County often offers board up services in the event of a fire in addition to when it is required to maintain the structure and safety of a building in other circumstances.  These circumstances often involve a vehicular accident where a car runs through a home or commercial building.

We are called to provide this service in Cecil County more often than expected, and we also offer Reconstruction services and partnering contractors to assist with fully restoring a home or facility when this happens.  Should the unexpected happen, SERVPRO of Cecil County is prepared to help make it “Like it never even happened.”

SERVPRO of Cecil County Encourages Building Safety!

5/6/2021 (Permalink)

May is National Building Safety Month!  This is an initiative created by various organizations to educate homeowners as well as insurance and property management professionals on the proper protocols of building and maintaining a safe facility.  Construction, design, safety, affordability and energy efficiency are key points to focus on when it comes to your home or commercial building.

This campaign stresses the importance of adopting modern and often updated building codes in order to maintain a safe structure.  SERVPRO of Cecil County supports this cause since building codes are a key part of maintaining a facility.  Neglecting the proper protocols for your home or business can lead to water, fire or mold damage, which our restoration professionals are all too familiar with.

Through our Emergency READY Profile Program (ERP), SERVPRO of Cecil County offers a related service where all pertinent information for a commercial building is documented in a digital file in case of a fire or water emergency.  Water shut-off valves, electrical systems and building access are a few standard pieces of information that we gather in order to allow the proper actions to be taken immediately with minimal downtime.  To learn more, click here!

Storm Damage At A Large Retail Facility

4/16/2021 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Cecil County recently visited this local retail facility in Texas after the severe winter storm and power outages they suffered had caused the pipes to freeze and break.  This caused a substantial amount of flooding and water damage throughout the building.

Like the thousands of other homes and businesses affected by the storm, water mitigation services were needed immediately for this facility.  Our team traveled to this state in order to assist with the overwhelming damages caused by one of the most large-scale storm disasters our country has faced.

Our crew worked hard to remove the damages from the storm and therefore minimize the downtime for this business.  We completed water mitigation services and placed multiple air movers in the facility in order to dry the affected areas as quickly as possible.  This process takes approximately three days to complete in order to ensure all signs of water are removed and there is no further risk of water or mold damage.

When it comes to commercial storm losses, SERVPRO of Cecil County is “Faster to any size disaster.”  Our storm team travels on a local and national level to assist those who have suffered water or storm damage.  Whether a small leak or major weather event has occurred in our local community, we are here to help!  We cover all of Cecil County when it comes to water, fire, mold and cleaning services!

Does Your Cecil County Business Need an Ozone Treatment?

3/9/2021 (Permalink)

When your business experiences fire or smoke damage, it often takes more than cleaning the affected areas to fully restore the building for your employees and clients.  Ozone treatment is used in special circumstances where the odor or fire damage is too powerful to be removed on its own.  This method is also used in the event of other offensive odors.

SERVPRO of Cecil County understands how critical it is to keep your business running.  Therefore, we offer our odor deodorization techniques in order to keep your company functioning with as minimal downtime as possible.

Ozone treatment involves a piece of equipment that traps the air in a home or facility.  This machine creates ozone that attaches to the odor in the air and neutralizes it.  This treatment is typically performed for at least a 24 hour time period in order to ensure all signs of smoke odor are gone. 

During this process, we also often recommend a duct cleaning since the smoke can enter the system and continue to spread throughout the property.  This process will eliminate further health risks.

Should your business experience fire, smoke or soot damage, or be in need of removing a strong odor, feel free to give SERVPRO of Cecil County a call for a free quote.  Our restoration professionals are happy to discuss our techniques and work with you on what works best for your business!

Preparing Your Business For Hurricane Season

6/9/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Cecil County is prepared for any storm damage that may occur in our Elkton and local area during this hurricane season.  With the season officially here, it is critical to be prepared for what the bad weather can bring to your home or business.  Having a plan in place for you and your employees is essential in the event of an emergency for proper safety protocol as well as actions to take when the storm is over.

In the event of severe weather due to a hurricane, please remember to create and share a plan with all employees and ensure they are aware of the proper steps to take.  Often, businesses hire an inspector who can identify any issues or structural damage that can significantly impact a facility in the event of a large storm.  Issues such as roof leaks, loose gutters, and broken pipes can all lead to severe water damage and should be fixed immediately.  An inspector can also ensure that all windows and doors are sealed tightly and safe for strong winds.

Once your business is declared safe and any structural damage has been repaired, be sure to remove any outdoor safety hazards such as yard signs.  Continue to listen for weather alerts in your local area and decide on a plan that is best for you and your staff.

Should you discover that your home or business is suffering from water, storm or structural damage, our restoration professionals are ready to help.  SERVPRO of Cecil County offers 24/7 emergency services for destruction due to hurricanes, flooding and other severe weather.  We handle any size water, fire, mold or storm disaster, and we take pride in helping our customers to overcome an often overwhelming situation.  To learn more about our services for your business during this hurricane season and beyond, please give us a call at 410-620-3322.

Fire Safety Tips to Protect Your Restaurant Business

3/18/2019 (Permalink)

Restaurants always have the risk of fire damage since heat is a key ingredient in this industry.  There are actions you can take to prevent this risk by following these steps.

  • Install an automatic fire-suppression system in the kitchen. In the event of a fire, this system will release chemicals to put out the flames and shut off the electrical power to other cooking equipment to prevent further damage.
  • Keep a fire extinguisher in the kitchen. A Class K fire extinguisher should be used in the kitchen, while a Class ABC fire extinguisher should be used for any other fires not located in the kitchen.
  • Regularly maintain all cooking equipment and exhaust systems.
  • Train your employees in proper fire prevention techniques.

Following these procedures will save your restaurant from devastating fire damage and keep your business, employees and customers safe. If your business does suffer from fire loss, contact the fire restoration professionals at SERVPRO of Cecil County.  Our emergency services can get your business back up and running quickly.

Did you know that SERVPRO of Cecil county is a 24/7 restoration company?  One of our tag lines "Faster to any size disaster" was certainly put to the test when we got this phone call from a commercial residential apartment complex.

campsite in the woods Homeless Encampment

SERVPRO of Cecil County recently received a phone call from a commercial business asking us if we did clean-ups and clean-outs, our answer:  Of Course!

Upon asking further questions we realized this would not be the typical clean-up job.  This commercial business wanted us to clean up a homeless encampment close to their facility.  As you can see from the picture, it was quite the job.  However, this is only one picture of the many that we took.  To see the rest, check out our Facebook page HERE.  

We did treat this as a bio-hazard condition based on the amount of material we had to move.  We had 2 bobcats, 5 dumpsters, and a dozen crew members who tackled this job and not only helped our valued commercial client, but cleaned up nature as well!
