Mold and Odor Removal: Water losses not handled in a timely manner and dried down quickly can lead to secondary damage such as microbial growth, as well as cause structural components to lose their integrity, potentially impact indoor air quality, and may ultimately result in compromised occupant health issues to develop. PuroClean’s IICRC certified technicians follow industry standards to properly remediate mold that has infected and/or damaged and return the property to a pre-loss condition. Once a scope of remediation and repair has been determined, they will implement engineering controls and containment to prevent cross-contamination to unaffected areas of a building utilizing negative pressure with HEPA air filtration devices. A remediation protocol is developed to remove contaminants by:

• The removal of compromised materials and contents per industry standards.
• A thorough cleaning using HEPA air filter devices and HEPA vacuums.
• A thorough cleaning of all surfaces with cleaning solutions that can include EPA registered disinfectants, followed by another HEPA vacuuming of all surfaces.

Many people use bleach to clean mold; however, this is an ineffective strategy as bleach does not kill the spores; it only bleaches them. PuroClean’s mission is to return your property to a clean and safe condition.

Odors are an indicator that something could still be wet. If something has a musty pungent odor it can indicate microbial issues that can create MVOC’s (microbial volatile organic compounds) and can cause health related issues.

Water Damage Assessment:

• Our technicians will first conduct a thorough assessment, perform daily inspections and monitoring to develop drying strategies and answer: What’s wet, how wet is it, is it drying, and has it reached its dry standard.
• The assessment helps determine what damaged material may need to be removed due to structural integrity issues, damage not restorable, or contamination. Our goal is to dry all materials such as drywall, wood, carpet and padding, baseboards, furniture, insulation, furniture, upholstery, and more, providing they are not contaminated, or structurally compromised according to industry standards.

Emergency Extraction of Water in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA

We begin by strategically using specially designed water removal equipment in order to quickly get rid of standing water.

• Our specialized pumping equipment will be used to remove all standing water immediately upon arrival. Your affected property will be removed to be stored or discarded.
• The equipment is taken away upon completion and the PuroClean technicians will discard the water at another location.

Dehumidification and Drying

Once all areas needing attention have been identified, the areas are isolated and prepped for drying and dehumidification.

1. This process requires all belongings to be relocated to thoroughly complete the water removal.
2. When ready, the PuroClean technician will place air moving machines around the isolated area. Remember that these machines are loud. The air movers will be focusing on areas of the house or business that contain moisture to remove any trapped water.
3. Next, the water will be pulled into the air by the air movers, which are specially designed to increase evaporation in the given space and create airflow so dehumidifiers can be most effective. All of the water pulled out is to be disposed of by the PuroClean professional in another location.
4. Once the moisture levels are normal, our technicians will bring back moved items and property to their original location. The humidity levels are closely monitored by our technicians to ensure that things can get back to normal as soon as possible.

Final Cleaning Processes

Odors can form in a carpet that has been water damaged very easily due to soils and potentially from other issues such as mildew and may spread beyond the affected area to your entire home or business. PuroClean’s professional process of cleaning, deodorizing and spot removal will safely and effectively remove soils and organics that are odor-causing.

• Our technicians will begin with a complete inspection and dry vacuuming of your carpet.
• To properly repair the affected carpet, where needed, your furniture may require repositioning.
• Pre-treatments may be required for heavily soiled areas, spots, or pet odors.
• Post cleaning treatments can include textile or fiber protection, the cleaning of hard surfaces and contents that can help protect and prolong the value of your property.

PuroClean Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA‘s Water Damage Dos and Don’ts

Although the repair of water damage in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA is a high priority, safety of our customers and technicians is our most important goal. The following tips will help reduce risk of suffering setbacks due to a heavy rain, flood, roof leaks or faulty plumbing or AC units; regardless of whether you are mitigating or restoring water damage.

To Do:

• Shut Off Your Water: Shut off the home’s water source and call a plumber for repairs.
• Be Cautious: Watch your step, as floors may be slippery. Also, watch for any trip and fall hazards as well as for exposed electrical wires.
• Water removal: Mop as much water as possible. In cool weather, open windows to help speed up drying and in hot weather, only if it’s safe to do so, turn your air conditioning on.
• Upholstery should be propped up: All loose cushions and upholstered furniture should be propped up in a dry place.
• Manage Area Rugs and Obstacles: Remove any area rugs and pick up any items that are sitting on the floor.
• Dry Storage Containers: Please open and dry all of your wet storage containers, bins, or suitcases. If possible, have them dry in the sun.
• Protect Valuables: Move any paintings and other artwork to a safe, dry place.
• Dry Clothing: Quickly dry all articles of clothing. Hang leather and fur goods to dry at room temperature.
• Furniture Protection: Put aluminum foil or some sort of plastic under all furniture legs touching wet carpets. Open cabinet doors and drawers to dry out interiors (but do not force them open).

• Don’t Operate Electrical Appliances: DO NOT TURN ON TVs, radios, computers, ceiling fans, or any other electrical appliances especially while standing on wet carpets or floors, particularly concrete or tile floors.

Does homeowners insurance cover flooding or water damage? Do you work with insurance companies to minimize the cost and hassle?

Homeowners insurance provides coverage for sudden and accidental damage (such as water heater ruptures or pipe bursts). However, flood damage, no matter the water source, is NOT covered by standard homeowners policies. Also, a standard homeowners insurance policy will not cover water damage that results from a lack of maintenance.
