Water Damage To A Recently Renovated Bathroom

This recently renovated bathroom experienced water damages as a result of an ice dam.  Ice dams are formed when snow melts on a roof and refreezes causing a “dam” to form near the edge of the roof prior to the gutter system. Ice dams can be minimized with proper roof ventilation, attic insulation and using a roof rake to remove new snow fall. 

Should you experience the unexpected, call SERVPRO of Milford-Orange-Stratford at 203-301-0500, to make it, “Like it never even happened.” 

Don't Forget to Clean Those Drains!

It is important that property owners inspect and clear their storm drains as often as possible.  Especially if there has been a severe rain storm or large amount of melted snow.  If storm drain becomes backed up or clogged with leaves or debris, excess water can flood the property.

Don't Let Water Leaks Disrupt Your Business!

Water leaks within a business can be disruptive to a business or facility.  Water leaks, pipe burst or malfunctioning sprinkler systems not only can disrupt the facility, but also can interrupt the day to day business functions, which could possibly close the business and affect revenues. 

Timely mitigation is critical to the restoration process.  Quick response time helps ensure that damage is contained and the restoration begins promptly. Should the unexpected happen, SERVPRO of Milford-Orange-Stratford can help make it, "Like it never even happened."

Dangers of Deep Frying Turkey

5 Dangers of Deep Frying a Turkey:

  • Turkey fryers can easily tip over, spilling hot cooking oil over a large area.
  • An overfilled cooking pot will cause cooking oil to spill when the turkey is put in, and a partially frozen turkey will cause cooking oil to splatter when put in the pot.
  • Even a small amount of cooking oil spilling on a hot burner can cause a large fire.
  • Without thermostat controls, deep fryers can overheat oil to the point of starting a fire.
  • The sides of the cooking pot, lid, and pot handles can get dangerously hot.

An example of a board up after a fire.

Should your residential or commercial property be damaged through fire, flood, wind or other types of disaster, you become responsible in securing the property.  All exterior openings must be secured, including roof, doors or any other openings into the building. Doors and windows should be covered with thick plywood and reinforced with screws.  A roof can be secured with plywood or tarp and securely fastened with nails.  By securing your damaged property; this will help prevent looting, vandalism or anyone getting hurt on the property.  By hiring SERVPRO of Milford-Orange-Stratford , we will be sure that your home or business is secured according to the latest standards.

Fire Extinguishers Can Help Save Lives!

Portable fire extinguishers can be life and property saving tools when used correctly. Read the instructions on the fire extinguisher and become familiar with them before a fire breaks out. In order to operate an extinguisher, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) suggests remembering the word PASS:

Pull the pin. Hold the nozzle pointing away from you and release the locking mechanism.

Aim low. Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire.

Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly.

Sweep the nozzle from side to side.

When Was the Last Time Your Pellet Stove Was Professionally Cleaned?

Pellet Stoves have become a primary or secondary heating source during the cooler months.  Many people are turning to pellet stoves as an alternative resource to oil, gas, or even wood. While pellet stoves can be economical, be sure to take proper care of your pellet stove.  Before each heating season, it is highly recommended that a qualified pellet stove and chimney expert inspect and thoroughly cleans your pellet stove.  A clean stove will last longer and burn more efficient. Finally, clean stoves are safe stoves, as removing buildup like creosote, known as soot will help to prevent chimney fires.  Lack of maintenance to your pellet stove can lead to your pellet stove not working properly or even worse, a fire.  So please be safe this pellet burning season!
