Mold Infestation in Murrieta Hot Springs Home?

3/21/2023 (Permalink)

A person discovers mold growing in their home. We remediate mold outbreaks in Riverside County.

Have you noticed a musty odor you can’t place in your home? If so, you may have mold growing somewhere in your home. Mold is often a symptom of water damage and can colonize quickly when the perfect warm and moist conditions present themselves. Our local Murrieta team is trained and certified by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) to remove mold from homes and businesses in Murrieta Hot Springs.

According to the National Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, you can keep mold out of homes and buildings by inspecting buildings for evidence of water damage and visible mold as part of routine maintenance and correcting any issues to prevent mold growth.

At home, you can control hold growth by controlling humidity levels. Keep humidity levels as low as possible – between 30 and 50 percent all day long. An air conditioner or dehumidifier can help. Humidity levels will change over the day, so you will need to check them more than once a day. Additionally, you can reduce the chances of a mold problem by doing the following:

  • Promptly fixing leaky roofs, windows, and pipes
  • Thoroughly cleaning and drying after flooding
  • Ventilating shower, laundry, and cooking areas

When you need mold removal services for your home or business in Murrieta Hot Springs, our local Murrieta team can help. We’ll locate and remove the mold outbreak “Like it never even happened.” Call us today at 951-894-4392.

Have You Become “Nose Blind” to Bad Odors in Your Murrieta Business?

3/14/2023 (Permalink)

A dog’s nose dominates the photograph. We specialize in odor removal services in Riverside County.

Bad odors are bad for business. Sometimes odors build up over time, and we may become “nose blind” to them. Odor identification and removal can be challenging as odors may stem from many sources inside and outside the building. Our local Murrieta team is trained and certified by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) to identify and eliminate offensive odors from commercial businesses and homes. We never mask odors or take shortcuts as these methods do not work.

Odor Identification

The first step is to identify the source of the smell and locate where the odor is contacting surfaces. Sometimes the odors originate from more than one location in the building.

Common Causes of Bad Odors

  • Dirty drains
  • Bacteria
  • Sewer systems
  • Dead animals in walls or crawl spaces
  • Garbage disposals
  • Rotten food

Odor Elimination Process

Once we identify the cause of the odor and determine the conditions where it contacts surfaces, the odor can often be removed over time without a trace. Our technicians use several odor removal products capable of thoroughly penetrating surfaces to neutralize unpleasant scents.

Our local Murrieta team is trained and certified to restore storm damage. The powerful Santa Ana Winds can cause significant damage to homes and businesses.

  • Bring in unsecured objects from outside and secure objects that could blow away and cause damage or injury

Here are the definitions of wind alerts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA):

High Wind Warning: Take Action! Sustained, strong winds with even stronger gusts are happening. Seek shelter. If you are driving, keep both hands on the wheel.

High Wind Watch: Be Prepared! Sustained, strong winds are possible. Secure loose items and adjust plans as necessary so you’re not caught outside.

Murrieta Home Damaged by Strong Winds in Recent Storm?

2/21/2023 (Permalink)

Palm trees are blown by strong winds. We are leaders in storm damage restoration services in Riverside County.

Murrieta has experienced its share of inclement weather this year. Wind storms and strong wind gusts have preceded many winter storms, causing damage to properties in the area. Our local Murrieta team is trained and certified to restore storm damage quickly and efficiently. Here are some tips for protecting your property from wind damage from the Federal Emergency Management Agency:

Secure Fencing, Porches, Canopies, and Sheds

Have them inspected and make sure they are firmly attached and in sound structural condition. Secure any parts of fencing that appear weak or loose.

Anchor Any Fuel Tanks and External Utility Links

If you have an exterior fuel tank or any utilities located outside, anchor or tie them down according to the ground anchor instructions. This will help reduce the risk of them overturning and sliding.

Replace Gravel and Rock Landscaping Materials

Rock and gravel materials can cause serious damage during a severe wind event. Gravel has been found in mailboxes during very strong wind events and has even shredded vinyl siding. Replace these materials with a softer material, such as mulch or dirt.

If you look closely at your workplace would you notice dust on light fixtures, cobwebs in the corners of the ceilings, or dull finishes on floors and hard surfaces?
