Don't be caught off-guard if your commercial property is vandalized.

Worried About Looters or Vandalism of Your Commercial Property?

After a disaster, it can lead to easy access to the inside of your property. This can attract looters and vandalism to your location. The restoration of your property may take awhile depending on the damage and it is critical to secure the building to prevent any further destruction. At SERVPRO of *Franchise* we can install locks, board up any openings, and if necessary, post 24/7 surveillance on the property. 

What to do immediately after a disaster to your property?

Depending on the disaster, law enforcement may be your first call. Always use your best judgment and call law enforcement when necessary.

If you do not need law enforcement, call your insurance company and find out what will be covered by the insurance you carry. Once that is figured out, give us a call! Depending on the damage to the property, you may want to consider board up or other cautionary services. Don’t let looters or vandalism make your disaster worse, call us today!

Do You Have an Odor Problem in Your Fargo Business?

6/21/2022 (Permalink)

Our technicians are certified to remove odors in Cass County businesses.

There is nothing more off-putting to customers and employees than a bad odor wafting through the workplace. Our local team in Fargo is trained and certified by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification to remove odors in businesses in homes. Sometimes odors are difficult to identify because they arise from sources originating from interior and exterior locations around the commercial property.

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 areas where it is making contact with surfaces, the odor can often be removed over time without a trace. Our technicians use several odor removal products that thoroughly penetrate surfaces and neutralize unpleasant scents.

Call Us!

If you have a terrible odor in your Fargo commercial business or home that you need help removing, our local team in Fargo can identify the source and neutralize the odor “Like it never even happened.” Call us today at 701-232-2455.

Mold Problem in Fargo Commercial Business?

5/17/2022 (Permalink)

We restore commercial mold damage 24-hours a day in Cass County.

Our local team in Fargo restores commercial mold damage throughout the year. Although every mold problem is unique, we follow the same remediation process as follows:

1. Emergency Contact

We’ll ask you questions to determine the necessary equipment and resources.

2. Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment

We follow local and state laws regarding inspection and documentation based on your unique situation.

3. Mold Containment

We may use advanced containment procedures like negative air chambers to isolate the contaminated area with physical barriers and negative air pressure to keep the mold spores from spreading during the cleanup process.

4. Air Filtration

We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.

5. Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials

We use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to eliminate mold colonies and to help prevent new colonies from forming. Removing and disposing of mold-infested porous materials may be necessary to remediate heavy mold growth.

6. Cleaning Contents

We clean your furniture, decorative items, curtains, and other restorable items affected by mold. We’re also trained to remove odors and deodorization using fogging equipment.

7. Restoration

Drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may have been removed during the remediation process. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet, or it may require the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.

Snowmelt Flooding in Fargo?

3/16/2022 (Permalink)

We respond to commercial property damage emergencies 24-hours a day in Cass County.

When your business experiences water intrusion from snowmelt, SERVPRO^® of Fargo’s technicians will arrive quickly to begin the cleanup and restoration process immediately. We respond to water damage emergencies of all kinds every year.

According to the North Dakota State University Geosciences Department (NDSU), the Red River has passed into flood stage at least once per year. The flooding has been minimal for most years, but several floods have been devastating. In a report from NDSU, the Red River is prone to flooding because:

1. The Red River flows northward, and its waters increase due to runoff from both the South and North portions of the valley
2. Ice jams form when ice from the southern valley meets the freshly broken ice in the central and northern valley, causing ice concentrations that build and dam the water flow.
3. The Red River is a young river of about 9300 hundred years old in geologic time, and this “young river” has not had time to carve a significant valley yet.
4. The decrease in the downslope of the river averages five inches per mile around Fargo-Halstad, and the downslope of the Drayton-Pembina is only 1.5 inches per mile. During floods, the lack of slope causes the water to pool.

Call Us Today!

If snowmelt damages your commercial business or home, SERVPRO^® of Fargo’s technicians are Here to Help. ® We are ready to respond to your emergency 24-hours a day. Call us today at 701-232-2455.

Frozen Pipes in West Fargo?

2/22/2022 (Permalink)

We restore commercial property damage 24-hours a day in Cass County.

If you’re one of the many local West Fargo businesses participating in Frostival this winter, the last thing you need is a frozen pipe. SERVPRO^® of Fargo offers this information from the Institute of Business and Home Safety, as frozen pipes are a leading source of property damage during severe winter weather. Here are their recommendations for reducing your risk of damage:

• Seal openings and penetrations:Seal all windows, doors, and other openings on exterior walls with caulk or insulation to prevent cold air from penetrating wall cavities
• Seal cracks and penetrations: Seal all wall cracks and penetrations, including domestic and fire protection lines, electrical conduit, and other utility service lines
• Insulate and seal attic penetrations:Insulate and seal attic penetrations such as partition walls, vents, plumbing stacks, and electric and mechanical chases
• Run faucets:Let all faucets drip during extremely cold weather to prevent freezing of the water inside the pipe, and if freezing does occur, to relieve pressure buildup in the pipes between the ice blockage and the faucet
• Insulate pipes
• Insulate recessed light fixtures
• Install an automatic excess flow switch
• Monitor sprinkler systems
• Provide backup power

Call Us Today!

When your West Fargo commercial business or home has a frozen pipe problem or another form of property damage, SERVPRO^® of Fargo has a team of highly trained technicians on-call and ready to assist you 24-hours a day. Call us today at 701-232-2455.

How Many Air Movers Does It Take to Mitigate a Large Commercial Building?

9/28/2021 (Permalink)

Nearly all of our air movers were used to help mitigate a large commercial water loss

When we get a call about a large commercial building having MAJOR water damage, we know what to do to make it “Like it never even happened.” First, we send a large crew to the building to remove the standing water and document all of the damage that had occurred in the building.

Electrical Fire Fiasco

When one of my buildings in Downtown Fargo caught on fire, the Fargo Fire Department determined the fire was started due to some old, damaged electrical wiring.

My insurance adjuster told me to call SERVPRO^® of Fargo.

Waterworks in West Fargo

When I saw the water pooling on the floor in my medical clinic, I knew I had to act fast. The clinic would be opening in a few hours, and I was hopeful the problem could be fixed before I had to see patients. There was no way to tell where the water was coming from, but I suspected it was coming from somewhere inside the wall. I called SERVPRO^® of Fargo and they quickly sent out a team of water restoration technicians.

The technicians used sensitive moisture detection equipment to identify the water’s location inside the wall and were able to repair the damaged pipe and clean the area quickly. They set up drying machines to remove the excess moisture from the air and documented the entire drying process. Because they responded so quickly, I avoided a more costly repair as there was no structural damage. Now it is difficult to see where the water damage was to begin with.

Commercial lighting equipment safety information for Fargo

11/3/2020 (Permalink)

Office lighting is the second most common cause of commercial fires – stay safe in Fargo.

According to the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association), one of the most common causes of commercial fires is electrical and lighting equipment. This type of fire is not easily predicted, as the lighting equipment can look totally fine on the outside in your Fargo business. SERVPRO® of Fargo wants to share the following information about commercial fires and how safety equipment helps to lessen the damage and can assist in preventing any bodily injury:

• Wet pipe sprinklers installed in the ceilings of commercial buildings are very effective in helping to fight the fire(s)
• Building sprinklers should be examined and tested every 5 years 
• There should always be a fire extinguisher in reach inside of a commercial building and they must be checked annually to ensure they are in working order
•  If an office building is on fire, exit the building immediately and do not try to fight the fire yourself 
• If there is a lot of smoke inside the building, cover your mouth and nose and do your best to not inhale any of it

In the unfortunate event that a commercial building does catch fire, rest assured that SERVPRO of Fargo is prepared to help clean up any fire damage the building/area has sustained.

How to Use Fire Extinguishers in Fargo

10/14/2020 (Permalink)

When using a fire extinguisher, remember PASS; Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep.

Here at SERVPRO of Fargo we hope you never experience the devastation that comes
with fire damage. However, in the event that disaster strikes, be aware that our IICRC certified
technicians are qualified in all aspects of cleaning up the damage left by smoke and fire in your
business or residence in Fargo

Fire extinguishers may help prevent fire damage or smoke damage, but only if you know how to
use them.
SERVPRO of Fargo wants to share these tips from FEMA. You can try to fight a small fire
only if:

• You have alerted others in the building that there is a fire
• Someone has called the fire department
• You are physically able to use a fire extinguisher
• The fire is small and contained (like a wastebasket)
• You are safe from the fire’s smoke
• You have a clear escape route

How to Use a Fire Extinguisher: SERVPRO of Fargo suggests you remember
PASS: 

Pull the pin. Hold the extinguisher with the nozzle pointing away from you and release the
locking mechanism
Aim at the base of the fire
Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly
Sweep the nozzle side to side

Mold Spores can Survive Harsh Conditions in your Fargo Home or Business

10/14/2020 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Fargo is Here To Help when mold and microbial damage occurs.

Mold grows out of tiny spores. Spores are tough enough to survive indoors or outdoors in harsh
conditions. Spores can survive for years. Scientists have found ancient mold spores that could
grow into mold.
Standing water and moisture can lead to mold growing in your home. Mold does not need visible
water to grow. Humidity inside the home is enough. Small amounts of water vapor can help
mold grow.
SERVPRO of Fargo knows that storm or flood damage can allow the mold spores to open
up. Any dampness can lead to mold.
SERVPRO of Fargo can remediate mold that grows on:

• Wood
• Paper
• Carpet
• Insulation
• Drywall
• Crawl spaces
• Attics
• Basements
• Bathrooms
• Anywhere in your home or business

To treat mold correctly, it is critically important to first stop the source of moisture. SERVPRO
of Fargo can clean and repair the damage caused by mold in your home or business. More
important, SERVPRO of Fargo has a specialty in mold remediation.
