For people who have low hearing or deafness in Fargo, consider the following:

• Extra batteries for hearing aids
• TTY
• If you Sign, have a pen and paper for people who do not know Sign
• Backup batteries for any augmentative communication devices

SERVPRO of Fargo has seen storm damage lead to power outages.
A power outage can:

• Disrupt communication
• Make transportation difficult
• Shut down water pipes
• Close businesses, grocery stores, gas stations, banks, ATMS, other services

• Lead to contaminated water
• Disable medical devices

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.

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
