3/30/2022 (Permalink)
Fire safety in the workplace can save money and lives.
A fire at your Gobles commercial building can cause severe damage to business structures, equipment, and inventory. As a business owner, focusing no fire risk assessment, fire prevention, and staff education can help reduce the chance of fire and smoke damage to your business.
Below are some tips for fire safety in the workplace:
- Have an evacuation plan - every business should have an evacuation plan to make it safer and more efficient for employees and customers to exit the building during a fire.
- Maintain fire safety equipment - smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and sprinklers should be inspected regularly. Any faulty equipment should be replaced immediately.

- Properly store and dispose of hazardous materials - designate a well-ventilated area to store flammable materials like solvents and fuels. This includes office cleaning products, which are often flammable.
- Schedule routine equipment maintenance - machinery, appliances, and computers should be maintained on a regular basis.
- Designate smoking areas - designating a smoking area far away from your building, inventory, and combustible items can help prevent a fire.
- Eliminate electrical hazards - overloaded outlets, defective wiring and overhead equipment are some examples of electrical hazards in a workplace, which area common causes of commercial fires. If repairs are needed, make sure it is done by a qualified electrician.

Signs Your Bloomingdale Business May Have A Mold Issue
3/15/2022 (Permalink)
This mushroom and mold growth was caused by an undetected water damage.
Mold can be a major problem for anyone, especially a business owner. In addition to disrupting your employees productivity and potential health effects, active mold growth can cause damage to your building, contents, and more. Many business owners respond to mold growth once it's a major predicament. Below are some signs that you can look for to hopefully catch the mold growth before it becomes a complete mess.
- Visible Mold/Mushrooms - one of the most obvious signs is actually seeing mold growth or mushrooms. Contact SERVPRO of Van Buren County to provide a free estimate to remediate the damage.
- Musty Smell - mold doesn't always grow in visible places. Under a sink, behind drywall, or under flooring are just a few places it can hide. Mold gives off a musty smell, so if you detect a musty odor in your business, it's best to have SERVPRO of Van Buren County test for mold.
- Recent Water Damage - mold can start to grow in as little as 24 to 48 hours in the right conditions. Quick drying and antimicrobial application helps to deter mold growth, but many water damages go undetected longer than they should. If you notice water damage in your facility, call SERVPRO of Van Buren County right away.
Mold growth can disrupt your Bloomingdale business, but it can also be taken care of by a mold remediation company. Our team at SERVPRO of Van Buren County has successfully remediated many businesses that have been affected by mold over the years. Call us today for a free estimate, 269-639-0464
Does Your Burnips Business Have a Fire Evacuation Plan?
12/10/2021 (Permalink)
A fire evacuation plan for your business is key.
When a fire threatens your employees and business, there are numerous things that can go wrong. While fires are dangerous enough, the threat is often enhanced by panic and chaos if your company is not prepared. The best way to prevent this from happening is to have a detailed and rehearsed evacuation plan. The following are ideas to start your plan or to improve your existing one:
- Plan for various scenarios - you want to start your plan with basic questions to uncover primary threats your business may face in the case of a fire. The following are a few questions to ponder, where might fires start? How and why would they start? What if "X" happens?
- Determine escape routes and nearest exits - the best plan will include primary and secondary escape routes. Exit routes and fire escapes should be clearly marked and clear of furniture or other obstructions. It is also very important to designate an area outside for employees to gather and collect a headcount.
- Create a communication plan - designate someone whose primary job is to call the fire department as well as communicate with customers and the news media if necessary.
- Know your tools and inspect them - the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends refilling reusable fire extinguishers every 10 years and replacing disposable ones every 12 years. When's the last time you checked yours? Make sure to periodically remind employees about the location of fire extinguishers throughout the workplace as well.
- Rehearse fire evacuation plan - conducting regular fire drills minimizes confusion and can reduce panic when a real fire occurs. You should plan for annual or semi-annual rehearsals.

Workplace Fire Extinguisher Safety Tips
4/7/2021 (Permalink)
Make sure your employees know how to correctly use a fire extinguisher.
The most common emergency small businesses must plan for is a fire, according to OSHA. Fire extinguishers can be invaluable tools to help fight smaller fires in the workplace. It is important for employees to know how to use an extinguisher properly and also know how to accurately assess a fire situation.
The PASS method is a simple training technique for fire extinguishers:
- Pull the pin on the extinguisher
- Aim the hose nozzle low toward the base of the fire
- Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent
- Sweep the nozzle from side to side at the base of the flames until extinguished
Fire extinguishers are meant to handle only small fires. If a fire becomes too large, or the environment becomes too dangerous, employees should know when and how to evacuate the area; and if appropriate, sound the fire alarm, or call the fire department immediately.
SERVPRO of Allegan/Barry/Van Buren Counties is available 24/7 if your business incurs damage from a fire. Call us at 269-686-0664, we are Here to Help!
The First 24 Hours After Damage; How Critical Are They?
4/5/2021 (Permalink)
Act fast. The first 24 hours after fire or water damage are critical.
Water or fire losses, even smaller incidents, can result in costly claims over time. The longer smoke, soot, or moisture have to permeate contents and structural components, the more secondary damage can occur.
Experience has shown that quick, appropriate action delivered within the first 24 hours after damage can dramatically reduce secondary damage. Smoke and soot have less time to chemically interact and damage or destroy contents, and moisture is prevented from spreading and breaking down structural components or promoting the growth of mold and mildew.
Offering 24-hour emergency services, SERVPRO of Allegan/Barry/Van Buren Counties is committed to responding to fire and water claims during the most critical time period following a loss, usually onsite in less than four hours.
The objective of critical response is to help return business owners' properties back to preloss condition while also controlling costs.

Preventing Mold Growth in the Workplace
3/19/2021 (Permalink)
Call SERVPRO of Allegan/Barry/Van Buren Counties for your business mold remediation needs.
Mold is found everywhere and can grow on almost any substance when moisture is present. They reproduce by spores, which are carried by air currents. When spores settle on an ideal surface, they begin to grow. While some molds can cause health effects, not all molds are bad. Not everyone that comes into contact with mold will be affected; some people are more sensitive to mold than others. Because there are so many variables to mold, it's best to keep mold out of your business.
The best way to prevent mold is to control moisture. The following are some tips to help keep your business mold free:
- Fix water leaks - any known water leaks should be fixed quickly. Have a contractor inspect for unknown leaks.
- Limit condensation - keep room temperatures warm and/or well insulated.
- Reduce humidity - open windows, install exhaust fans or use a dehumidifier.
- Clean wet/damp areas - any wet or damp area, material, or affected equipment should be cleaned within 48 hours to prevent mold growth.
If your business experiences mold growth, call SERVPRO of Allegan/Barry/Van Buren Counties to remediate as we have the proper training and personal protective equipment. Call us today, 269-686-0664, we are Here to Help!

Preventing Commercial Grease Fires
12/16/2020 (Permalink)
Large or small damage, we can handle it!
There are a variety of different ways that a grease fire can start in a commercial kitchen. A mixture of flammable items and a chaotic environment is a recipe for a fire eventually. Luckily, there are safety precautions that you can take to prevent a kitchen fire.
Always make sure that you keep everything clean. Most kitchen fires begin when flammable cooking material such as oil or grease are ignited. It is also important to make sure that deep fryers and hood filters are properly maintained. Although having a clean kitchen doesn't make it completely fireproof, it highly decreases the likelihood of experiencing a fire.
Make sure you have proper safety equipment on-site. This includes having up-to-date fire extinguishers as well as investing in a fire suppression system. The fire suppression system will dispense chemicals immediately to combat a fire, helping to prevent the spread.
Be sure that kitchen staff have training on how to prevent fires as well as procedures for if one does occur. Think about fire prevention as an investment.

Understanding the Nature of Smoke
4/11/2019 (Permalink)
Smoke has a behavior? Why yes it does. Smoke and soot are very invasive and can penetrate various cavities within your home, causing hidden damage and odor. Our smoke damage expertise and experience allows us to inspect and accurately assess the extent of the damage to develop a comprehensive plan of action.
Smoke and soot facts:
- Hot smoke migrates to cooler areas and upper levels of a structure.
- Smoke flows around plumbing systems, seeping through the holes used by pipes to go from floor to floor.
- The type of smoke may greatly affect the restoration process.
Different Types of Smoke
There are two different types of smoke–wet and dry. As a result, there are different types of soot residue after a fire. Before restoration begins, SERVPRO of Allegan & Barry County will test the soot to determine which type of smoke damage occurred. The cleaning procedures will then be based on the information identified during pretesting. Here is some additional information:
Wet Smoke – Plastic and Rubber
- Low heat, smoldering, pungent odor, sticky, smeary. Smoke webs are more difficult to clean.
Dry Smoke – Paper and Wood
- Fast burning, high temperatures, heat rises therefore smoke rises.
Protein Fire Residue – Produced by evaporation of material rather than from a fire
- Virtually invisible, discolors paints and varnishes, extreme pungent odor.
