Water & Fire Damage: Commercial Buildings
8/11/2023 (Permalink)
Fire Damage can be stressful enough, but most commercial buildings have a setup in place for water to go off to put out the fire, like a sprinkler system. Although this can be very efficient to keep the fire damage to a minimum, your commercial property may experience flooding or water damage depending on how soon someone is able to arrive to turn the sprinkler system off.
We are professionals in handling large loss projects and have been there to help huge businesses. We also understand that your business needs to be back up and running as soon as possible, and at times we will work with other SERVPRO® franchises to ensure that all hands are on deck to make this possible for you.
Our team will be in constant communication with you to make sure everything is going well and we will have an estimated timeframe of when the project will be complete. Dry ice blasting can be common to remove heavy soot and grime from walls if it is present after a fire, and we typically place many air movers to remove water damage from areas to get everything dry as quickly as we can.
Give us a call at 610-776-7774 if you experience fire, water, or even mold in your commercial business or property. We can handle anything from colleges, manufacturing buildings, salons, daycares, and even government buildings.

Commercial Building Maintenance Tips
4/12/2023 (Permalink)
Safety is an extremely important topic when it comes to commercial buildings where people are constantly working and going in and out of. These tips will be able to offer insight on how to keep your commercial space as safe as possible during the winter months with colder temperatures and weather conditions.
Commercial buildings are typically using heating systems with the frigid weather outside to keep their employees warm and comfortable during their working conditions. SERVPRO can inspect your heating systems and make sure they are being well-maintained to survive the colder months and make sure they are efficiently working and are as up to date as possible.
Even if it appears that your heating systems are working perfectly, cold winds and dropping temperatures can freeze pipes and affect temperatures as well. By calibrating your thermostats and making sure everything is according to plan, you will be able to have a similar success with your heating system
- Inspecting Doors and Windows
Doors and windows are primary locations where you can find a sudden rush of cold air entering your building. Even a small crack left open in a window can cause your heating bill to skyrocket if it is constantly trying to keep up with maintaining warmth throughout the building with the breeze coming through the window. Doing a walkthrough of your building at least once a day and making sure doors and windows are properly closed and locked will save you both money and warmth
Employees are at risk during icy and snowy conditions, especially if the building is still up and operating after a snowfall overnight. If it is safe for employees to come into work, it is crucial that sidewalks and walkways leading to and around the building are both efficiently salted in order to prevent anyone falling and hurting themselves. Rock salt and de-icing liquid are two options that your building could invest in to prevent any accidents happening during these snowy months.
SERVPRO is a commercial cleaning company that can keep your building in perfect condition and help with any needs you may have.

There are many different types of mold. A common one that can be growing inside your commercial business is known as Botrytis mold, also known as gray mold. It can be found almost anywhere that plants are being grown including inside your business. It can spread easily through wind and water, and grow on a variety of surfaces. It first appears as a white fuzzy color rapidly turning to gray, and sometimes even brown. Like most molds Botrytis thrives in moisture and attacks the weak part of a plant and spreads to the healthy areas. Some frequent household foods that are affected are strawberries, grapes, lettuce, onions, and cabbage. Botrytis mold is highly allergenic. Because of all these issue, it is very important for this mold to be removed right away. At first sight any infected plant must be removed and disposed of to stop any further growth.

What is a Green Roof and How it Will Benefit Your Property
8/12/2020 (Permalink)
Storm water runoff is among the highest causes of basement flooding. SERVPRO of Western Lehigh County professionals are called out to more homes and businesses impacted by storm water flood damaging their properties; as rural areas continue to develop into urban sprawl, it's important to think green and continue to invest in sustainable construction options such as green roofs.
So what are the benefits of having a Green Roof? Although the structural, waterproofing, and drainage requirements of green roofs will always make them more expensive than traditional roofs, green roofs offer significant long-term economical and environmental advantages that more than justify the higher initial cost:
• Green roofs are visually attractive. The variegated coloring of flowers, grasses, and wild herbs is more appealing than stark black or white monolithic surfaces. Green roofs can transform urban wastelands into urban gardens.??• Green roofs are energy-efficient. They are cool in the summer and can be as effective as white roofs in reducing the urban heat island effect. The thermal mass of the soil reduces heat gain and loss by isolating the building from temperature extremes.
• Green roofs are permanent. By shielding the waterproofing from the sun and reducing temperature swings. Imagine the plants soaking up all the sun instead of a normal roof which will raise the temperature in the building.
• Green roofs significantly reduce storm water runoff, typically retaining half to three-quarters of the annual rainfall and retarding the runoff of most of the remainder.
Just think of how much nicer your roof will look, and the amount of flood damage they can reduce
