We are Ensuring that your commercial property is sanitized to a high standard has, of course, always been important, but now more than ever, areas including, factory floors, bins and recreation spaces, both public, and private must be clean and safe.

It is of equal importance to commit to caring for our environment whilst achieving these high levels of cleanliness. At SERVPRO Of Mountain View, Los Altos  we have worked hard to ensure this through the development of our own market-leading technologies and cleaning products.

Industrial Floor and Sanitation Cleaning

It has long been accepted that it is almost impossible to achieve a thoroughly clean floor or surface using traditional cleaning methods such as mopping, and off the shelf products, which typically only work well when a surface is new. This is because dirt is simply being moved around and along a grout line, rather than removed entirely.

Using only these methods over a sustained period of time is likely to lead to the build-up of dirt and mold and the area begins to look old and worn. The surface in question eventually either has to be totally replaced, or lived with as is. However, we have developed a unique way of combining heat, water pressure, our own detergents and vacuum to guarantee a deep clean with all debris completely removed. This means not only a higher level of sanitation day to day, but also a reduction in costs longer-term as fewer surfaces need to be replaced.
To find out more about the commercial services  work we carry out, get in touch with our team today on 6507702992 or https://www.SERVPROmountainviewlosaltos.com/  A member of our friendly customer service team will assist you with whatever you need.

Keeping Your Building Safe from Covid-19

Keeping Your Building Safe from Covid-19

As our communities get back to business, we all have a new sense of what it means to be clean. In fact, 89% of consumers are uneasy about going back to brick-and-mortar locations*. At SERVPRO of Mountain View, Los Altos, we’re dedicated to inspiring confidence in communities across the country as we find our way to a new normal. And we’re doing just that with Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned.

Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned, our new defensive pathogen cleaning program, goes way beyond standard janitorial cleaning practices. This is proactive viral pathogen cleaning. With over 50 years of experience in biochemical spill remediation and decontamination, you can trust SERVPRO of Mountain View, Los Altos Professionals to bring a higher standard of clean to the places we gather.

In the past year the outbreak of Covid-19 has drastically changed the way we live and work. Now, as vaccines emerge and we learn to live alongside the virus, businesses are considering the best ways to bring their staff back into the office safely.

But how can you make your building ‘Covid safe?’ Here are a few starting points.

Cleaning

In office environments where staff are generally working in close proximity of one another, the spread of Covid-19 may feel inevitable. But research shows that regularly cleansing and disinfecting surfaces can reduce the risk of transmission. It’s important to understand that cleansing and disinfecting are different things. Cleansing (with soap and water) should take place before disinfecting and is essentially a way to swiftly remove the majority of Covid-19 particles from a surface area. Disinfecting uses a detergent products.

Employing professional commercial cleaners to deal with communal areas is beneficial, as is encouraging staff to look after their own work stations and regularly use a hand sanitizing agent, alongside regular hand washing.

Social distancing and ventilation

Offices have always been known as places where bugs notoriously spread often due to poor ventilation systems and cramped conditions. Now more than ever it is important to use ventilation and filtration systems that can remove harmful pathogens in the air. Opening windows will also increase the fresh air flow and allow any harmful particles to be released from the office.

Even with these measures in place, however, your real risk comes from allowing too many people into the workspace. Social distancing measures, such as a limiting the amount of people in the office at any given time, adjusting the layout and floor plan of the office and encouraging remote working and virtual meetings where possible, can help keep the numbers (and consequently the risk of exposure) down.

If you need any help for Sanitizing, disinfecting cleaning at your business, you should call SERVPRO Of Mountain View. In cases of emergency, our team of experts can be on site within the hour to treat the problem.

Repairing Your Gutters After the Cold Winter Months

Repairing Your Gutters After the Cold Winter Months

Our homes are major investments: whether we buy or rent they cost us a great deal of money. So, it’s unwise to neglect simple and inexpensive maintenance routines.

There are few simpler, or more important, household maintenance tasks than keeping your guttering and drainage flowing and in good order.

Almost all gutters will become blocked by windblown grit, foliage or slipping tiles at some point, and when this happens some expensive damage can result, such as crumbling brickwork, internal damp, impacted down pipes and drains, and rotting soffits. Chronically over-spilling rain water can cause internal damp problems, such as rotting floor timbers. If the debris accumulates in the down pipe and drains you might find that your sinks and showers empty more slowly or that the washing machine overflows.

Solutions

A problem for many when they wish to undertake some guttering maintenance is that accessing gutters often requires climbing a high ladder. If you don’t have a head for heights or aren’t as fit as you used to be then you shouldn’t be considering this and it is much better left to a professional.

SERVPRO Of Mountain View, Los Altos are experienced in ladder and walk-board safety, and also know how to care for your roof. They will also alert you to any issues with slipping or cracked tiles, corroded or broken screws, separating or buckling guttering, as well as any evidence of spill or splash back onto soffits, fascia or brickwork.

Unlike the average property owner or tenant, professional contractors can do more than get up there and scoop out the muck by hand. Specialist tools include pressure hoses and vacuum pumps, and they can apply remedial timber or brickwork treatments if needed and sometimes repair cracks and holes with caulk before they become a bigger problem.

Protect your biggest investment – your home – with SERVPRO Of Mountain View, los Altos.

Time Savings

Restoration is typically faster than refurbishment or repair and, in some instances, can be faster than replacement, particularly for assets such as equipment and machinery.

Prompt action taken at the outset of a loss can mean dramatic time savings down the line. In some instances, if the correct Immediate Measures are not taken quickly, unnecessary secondary damage can occur and restoration and recovery may not be possible at all.

If it’s your home that’s been affected, restoration can mean you get back into your home and back to normal quicker, with less disruption and significantly less upheaval.  If it’s your business that’s been affected, restoration can mean you get back in business quicker, or sometimes even mean staying in business altogether.

Cost Benefits

Failure to act quickly or act at all can mean the difference between a successful recovery or a lengthy and costly road to recovery.  In some scenarios this can even result in a ‘total losses.

Restoration is often the most economical way to recover with costs typically only 10% - 30% of alternative replacement or repair costs.

Costs associated with alternative accommodation and storage, or business interruption costs can also account for a significant proportion of the overall costs on a loss.  These costs can also be significantly mitigated or even
avoided all together with an effective restoration program.

At SERVPRO Of Mountain View, Los Altos we pride ourselves on working closely with customers sharing our technical expertise and know-how.  We will guide, support and help you choose the optimum recovery route, even if this doesn’t include restoration.

We offer solutions to often very complex and challenging problems based on years of experience working with customers to find the best recovery options.

Whether it’s the installation of an advanced drying system meaning you can stay in your home or restoring your business-critical machinery meaning you can continue production on a temporary basis our experts will work closely with you to meet your needs when you need us most.

- Clean Up After Death

What are the potential diseases from exposure to bodily fluids?

Extreme caution must be taken when dealing with bodily fluids due to the risk of infection and exposure to diseases.

Direct exposure to body fluid spills do not result in infection. In general, the risk of human infection from spills is very low. However, risk of contracting a disease from direct contact to blood, urine, vomit and feces is based on many factors, including but not limited to the following:

  • The infectious agent involved
  • Duration and type of exposure
  • The amount of body fluids/feces involved in the exposure
  • The amount of infectious agent in the body fluids/feces at the time of exposure

The 3 main diseases that can be transmitted by exposure to body fluids are:

AIDS, Hepatitis B & HIV

What to Do When a Leak Is Suspected

If you discover, or even suspect, that there is a water leak in your home, you will benefit greatly from some professional assistance. And it will take more than just a plumber. A plumber can fix the leak but can they find it? And what must be done to prevent mold?

This is when you need the help of a professionally certified water damage restoration company, like SERVPRO Of Mountain View. Our water damage specialists have the necessary tools to pinpoint any leak and remediate any damage the leak has caused. Structural drying is always necessary to prevent mold from growing. Simply removing what is wet and replacing it without proper drying is a recipe for disaster. In nature, wet always goes to dry if it can. Any moisture that is not removed from structural materials (wallboard, subflooring, wall studs, etc.) will be absorbed into any replacement materials and may result in mold growth.
