Twin Falls Area and Clean Air Ducts

Air duct cleaning is an important task that every homeowner should consider. It is essential for healthy living and has many benefits when buying or selling a house. Here are some reasons why air duct cleaning is wise for homeowners already settled into their properties and those looking to buy or sell a house.

SERVPRO® air duct cleaning in Twin Falls and Jerome might seem an afterthought when buying or selling a property. While you have a lot of boxes to check when finalizing the sale of a house, you want to make sure that you are moving into a home free of the previous owners' problems.

The Benefits for Any Homeowner to Consider Duct Cleaning

  • Cleaner: Clean air ducts improve home air quality by reducing the risk of respiratory problems caused by dust, dirt, and allergens. Not only does this mean a little less daily upkeep on the dusting chores around the house, but everyone is breathing in cleaner air where they are in your home.
  • Cost-Efficient: Dirty air ducts make your HVAC system work overtime, resulting in higher energy bills. Cleaning them improves efficiency and reduces costs.
  • Attractive to Buyers: Clean air ducts can make your home more appealing to potential buyers, indicating that your home is a healthy environment. This can help you sell your house faster and at a higher price.

We understand that any work you do to your house costs you money or time. We are passionate about helping your indoor air quality be at its best. So, for a limited time, SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties offers a realtor discount of 40% off our comprehensive duct cleaning services, including inspection, filter replacement, complete system cleaning, and testing.

Happy Customers In Twin Falls?

A person is leaving a five-star review. Our technicians respond to fire damage emergencies 24-hours a day in Twin Falls County.

SERVPRO® of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties shares this Google review from a customer who had fire damage:

“These people are amazing! From the office workers to the clean-up crew. Not only was the physical work from the roofer, to the garment specialists who went beyond their job to help us and restore the house to new again.

To the people who clean up every whiff of smoke damage in clothes, carpet walls, everything that had a wisp of smoke near it.

Kaley, the office help, always talked to me calmly and professionally was beyond awesome. Sometimes she just listened (best quality) to an overwhelmed old man who was stressing. Five stars for her, please. To all the staff who showed up any time to answer a question and make the process go smoothly. Even the time we had to spend outside the house in a hotel was amazing.

Dave, the crew leader, went so far above the call to help and make sure this work down to the last detail was completed beyond our satisfaction. He knows his job, and he was there.

The fire was in the garage, and they cleaned and polished every tool I own to like-new condition. Even a saw that I was going to throw away runs like new after they “cleaned” it.

If you need any restoration, do not look any further. These people put the professional in service.”

SERVPRO® of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties wants everyone in Jerome to have a fun and safe Halloween celebration this year. Here are some Halloween fire safety tips from the National Fire Protection Association to keep you safe:

  • Use a battery-operated candle or glow stick in jack-o-lanterns
  • Dried flowers, cornstalks, and crepe paper catch fire easily
  • Keep all decorations away from open flames and other heat sources like light bulbs and heaters
  • When using electrical lighting to decorate your home, make sure it is used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Some lights are only for indoor or outdoor use, but not both.
  • Use clips, not nails, to hang lights so the cords do not get damaged
  • Remember to keep exits clear of decorations, so nothing blocks escape routes. Make sure all smoke alarms are working.

If you plan to attend Halloween parties or go trick-or-treating:

  • When choosing costumes, stay away from long trailing fabric that could come in contact with open flames or other heat sources
  • Teach children to stay away from open flames, including jack-o-lanterns with candles in them
  • Provide children with flashlights to carry for lighting or glow sticks as part of their costumes

Reducing the Transmission of Pathogens in Twin Falls

A big topic of discussion in the scientific community lately has been about surfaces that someone with a virus may have touched. Medical leaders urge us to practice social distancing, stay away from large groups, and thorough hand washing of at least 20 seconds or more. All those things help, but in the case of commercial properties, once a surface has come in contact with a virus in Twin Falls, how can you ensure it is adequately cleaned?

For years, SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties has routinely handled emergencies, including microbial infestations, biological substances, and chemical contamination. In these types of situations or viral spread, our technicians reduce the possibility of the transmission of pathogens (harmful microorganisms) by cleaning and applying a disinfectant to the area.

Commercial Products and Equipment

  • We use a combination of EPA-registered products and advanced equipment such as sprayers and foggers to care for your place of business. 
  • Our technicians focus on high-touch surfaces not always cleaned on a regular basis.
  • We provide our team with personal protective equipment to ensure they are protected from the virus as well as eliminating the chance of us spreading it beyond where we clean.

Call SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties today. We are available at (208) 735-1447. 

Advice from the medical and scientific community regarding how to deal with the coronavirus is based on present knowledge, which is subject to change as the situation continues to develop.

SERVPRO is always here to Help you with your Home’s Water Damage Mishaps

Water damage is a thing many Twin Falls homeowners have to deal with at some point in their lives. Accidents do not wait for your preparation. Unfortunately, water damage can come from many sources, which can make it very difficult to predict. 

However, predicting the water damage in your Twin Falls home is not what is essential. It is how you react to sudden damage that matters. Remaining calm and immediately calling for professional help can do wonders for your home. Even a time period as small as ten minutes can make a difference. 

Imagine a scenario where your washing machine springs a leak. The water supply line gives out and causes water to gush out onto the floor at a rapid pace. At that moment, it is essential for you to not only to locate the water shut off in your home, but also to call for professional services. 

Here at SERVPRO, we believe in providing quality services when you need them. Always remember, We're Faster To Any Size Disaster. Our technicians are expertly trained and use advanced technology specifically designed for water damage mitigation. 

Once we received your call, our SERVPRO techs could quickly travel to your home and immediately address the situation. Using technological devices such as extractors and wet/dry vacuums, our technicians could swiftly remove the excess water from your laundry room. Afterward, to help ensure that mold growth does not occur, SERVPRO could set up heaters and dehumidifiers. Furthermore, our techs could also use an anti-fungal agent to clean the floor.  Our goal is always to leave your home in its preloss condition so you can go back to your life as it usually is, no damage in mind. 

If you need professional water damage remediation services, never hesitate. Speak with a representative of SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties by calling (208) 735-1447. We're always open to take your call.

Commitment to Community and Families in Twin Falls Are Why SERVPRO Stands Out in the Regional Disaster Recovery Field 

Your Twin Falls company or residence is so much more than a building. When water, fire, storms, or mold attack the place you call home or the business you built, more than damaged structures or ruined fixtures are at stake. We understand that our customers need state of the art equipment and highly qualified technicians to put back the pieces. Restoring your sense of safety, comfort, and peace of mind are also essential, and our team goes that extra mile on every residential project we accept. 

Water Damage Restoration 

Responding to a water loss in Twin Falls requires a commitment to hard work on the part of the SERVPRO team. In addition to an exceptional work ethic, our managers and technicians also master the restoration industry’s best practices through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) courses. Failing to follow research-based protocols when responding to water damage can result in progressive deterioration of structural components and fixtures. Secondary damage such as mildew and mold growth are nearly inevitable if moisture levels remain elevated. Our thorough approach minimizes these issues. 

Expect a swift response from our team after your call, as water damages quickly and relentlessly. Our crews arrive with fully-stocked service vehicles, ready to pump or extract the influx of water. Experienced project managers evaluate the condition of the water, assigning it a category from 1 through 3. Category 1, or freshwater, currently poses little risk of microbial growth if removed fast. Category 2 and especially 3 water contains contaminants, some of which can be health hazards. Sewage and flood water immediately assume a Category 3 label and must be contained and disposed of per local hazardous waste regulations. 

SERVPRO crews aim to extract every drop of liquid water, as the more moisture that evacuates before drying, the more efficient our techniques can be. We use detection devices to locate trapped water and consider releasing quantities of fluids from behind structures using controlled demolition like flood cuts and punched or drilled holes. Structural drying then proceeds, air movers, and heaters, which are facilitating evaporation of water from porous structures. Dehumidifiers then absorb or condense the vapor for a final resolution.  

Fire Damage Restoration 

A fire in Twin Falls is not an easy proposition for a homeowner. Relief that escaping personal harm is replaced with a sense of loss and dread as you survey the mess and destruction. No one can handle fire residues and charring without the help of trained and experienced professionals. The debris is toxic, and the worry of weakened structures and permanent odors is realistic. 

Contacting our full-service fire damage company in Twin Falls results in the rapid receipt of a multi-skilled and well-equipped response to a severe and complicated set of problems. Our team assesses the damage and digs right in, ready to stabilize, mitigates, remove, clean, and remediate the damage. Fire residues are highly toxic and difficult to remove safely and efficiently. Our technicians master research-based strategies from IICRC courses to cover every exigency.  

First, the SERVPRO crews stabilize the structure, which includes removing water, a dangerous and destructive substance after it quells the flames. Project managers evaluate residues and match methods and products to clean up the soot and remove charring. As crew members attack the soot, they observe safety measures that keep them and the occupants free from further harm, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and air quality enhancers like air scrubbers.  

Our production facility Contents Processing Technicians work on fire-damaged furnishings, household goods, and personal possessions. SERVPRO has access to resources that can restore items from papers and photos, to window treatments and clothing, to toys and other personal treasures, to furnishings, and more. We take pride not only in restoring your home after a fire but also in returning beloved objects and practical items to function and appearance. 

Mold Remediation 

Among the stresses inherent in owning a home, finding mold damage in your Twin Falls dwelling ranks high on the list. Not only is the smell of multiplying fungal organisms unpleasant, but it can also be embarrassing to open your doors to visitors when the odor is present. As the mold spores grow, more develop and become airborne, causing irritation and even allergic reactions in susceptible individuals.  

Although many DIY products for mold treatment in Twin Falls exist, the growth cycle of various household molds makes it very difficult to manage without professional help. One critical point to learn is that remediation, not the elimination of mold occurs. The remediation process is challenging but successful when completed by trained and certified technicians. This fact is why SERVPRO can be a helpful resource for individuals battling mold outbreaks. 

Mold spores are everywhere and cause trouble only when they absorb water. If a leak, condensation, high humidity above 60 percent, or an incompletely remediated and dry water loss exists for more than 24 to 48 hours, spores can take that opportunity to absorb moisture to begin growing. Determining the source of and addressing moisture issues is vital in mold remediation. 

We are in the water mitigation and remediation business, why SERVPRO took on mold issues and their solutions. Expect us to conduct a thorough evaluation to find and arrange for the elimination of moisture sources. We then follow the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) protocols for mold remediation: 

  • Containment
  • Removal
  • Cleanup of and lawful disposal of moldy debris
  • Disinfection of affected surfaces with an EPA-registered antimicrobial 

Storm Damage Restoration 

Our ability to reduce the distress and worry caused by harm to your Twin Falls home after extreme weather is the reason we exist. It is impossible to prepare adequately for the destruction a storm can bring to residents of our region. Whether you suffer from the effects of high winds, snow, rain, flooding, or a combination of the above, we train our workforce and maintain our equipment to help year-round. 

Severe storm damage in Twin Falls often requires securing exterior damage. Our employees begin tarping and boarding up immediately after we arrive, as our experienced project managers assess the other damage. We carry a comprehensive inventory of commercial-grade equipment in all service vehicles, so we avoid delays in needed responses. This preemptive approach is why SERVPRO crews can work quickly and effectively no matter the tasks and steps involved.  

As the project plan develops, our crews move on to other phases. We mitigate and remediate storm-related water damage using pumps and extractors, including using containment techniques and lawful disposal methods if floodwaters bring contaminants into your home. Controlled demolition like flood cuts allows us access to trapped water we discerned using moisture probes and infrared cameras. Opening building cavities permits us to dry spaces out more efficiently as well.   

If agreed upon by your carrier, we might pack-out contents for processing and restoration at our production facility. We track and secure the items using a digital and written Contents Claim Inventory Service (CCIS), why many home insurance companies recommend SRVPRO. Treasures and practical household goods can all benefit from our expert cleaning, drying, deodorizing, and disinfection. Restoring instead of discarding saves money and preserves memories. 

Have confidence in our qualifications and equipment -- why SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties is ready to ­manage any disaster. Our phones at (208) 735-1447 answer 24/7 because emergencies cannot wait.

We Will Drying And Refinish Your Hardwood Floors After A Flood In Twin Falls

Drying and Refinishing Hardwood Floors after Flood Damage in Twin Falls

Wooden flooring can be at an exceptionally high risk of loss when exposed to large amounts of water for a prolonged period. However, hardwood flooring tends to stand-up better against moisture than softwoods, and you may be able to rescue your floorboards using specialty drying methods. When in the presence of moisture, hardwoods naturally buckle, warp and cup. Using the correct restoration procedures, you may be able to avoid buckling from becoming a permanent issue and significantly reduce the expense of your claim.

When hardwood floors are exposed to flood damage in your Twin Falls home, reaching out for professional restoration is essential to rescuing, and reversing the visible damage. The buckling of floorboards in the presence of moisture occurs because woods absorb moisture. A natural equilibrium for moisture in wood is around 12%, so the key to preventing damage is to bring the moisture content down as quickly as possible. The longer woods are exposed to moisture, the higher the chance of permanent damage. Mold growth and rot can appear when moisture content levels exceed 20% in natural woods.

Removing moisture from inside natural materials relies on dehumidification. Dry surrounding air can draw out moisture. SERVPRO technicians can use desiccant dehumidifiers to reduce relative humidity to 30% to 45%. When the moisture content of hardwood drops below 16%, we can place air-moving equipment above and below floorboards to reduce drying times. In some situations, varnish can slow drying by acting as a vapor barrier and require removal to dry wood effectively.

Larger rooms with high ceilings can make dehumidification tricky. SERVPRO can erect polyethylene tents above the floor to create a smaller drying chamber and increase efficiency. During the drying procedure, technicians can regularly assess the subfloor using Teflon coated moisture probes. The process of acclimatizing hardwood flooring can be long and take over a month before the floor can be sanded to remove buckling. Sanding while the floor is still wet may result in permanent harm. Once the floor restoration is complete, we can refinish the wood its preloss condition.

Hardwood floors do not necessarily sustain permanent damage when cupping. Contact SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties at (208) 735-1447 for hardwood restoration.

Fire Damage Gurus In Jerome Examine Ways To Deodorize Smoke Odors

10/1/2019 (Permalink)

We can take on the odor damage of your Jerome home.

Even a small blaze that starts in or near your Jerome residence can cause your structural components and possessions problems. According to our SERVPRO experts, fire damage can come in many forms, including issues with light smoke. Smoke coming from an inferno consists of particles that did not completely turn into a gas when heated or combust. These partially combusted particles can float around your house and contaminate it with soot residues and unpleasant aromas.

During some fire damage situations in Jerome, smoke can penetrate deeply into the more porous materials inside your residence. When this occurs, removing all foul odors can prove to be difficult. In many cases, burnt smells get eliminated when all torched substances, soot residues, and soils get cleaned and removed. However, in some cases, tainted aromas can still be prevalent even after cleaning procedures.

If items still smell burnt after cleaning, our highly trained team of SERVPRO fire and smoke restoration technicians or FSTs can utilize a variety of pieces of specialized equipment and techniques. The advanced technology at our disposal enables us to mimic the behavior of smoke with deodorants and chemically neutralize burnt odors. We also offer fast 24/7 service so that we can immediately begin restoration operations right away, which can help reduce the number of unpleasant smells prevalent.

First off, before using any deodorization equipment, we make sure our team has the necessary safety equipment. If the operations are hazardous, we seal off the area we are working in during the deodorization procedures. We then use items like electric sprayers to dispense chemicals into your stinky structure.

Ventilation box fans also often get used to help create air circulation and "air out" the building. For situations where strong, pungent aromas prove to be an issue, our FSTs at SERVPRO can utilize other machines such as a fogger or ozone generator. Foggers work by breaking deodorizing chemicals down to microscopic particles so they can penetrate materials as deeply as the smoke did. An ozone generator creates unstable O3 molecules that oxides malodor particles and neutralizes them.

If you ever need your house in Buhl, Filer, Hazelton or Rogerson deodorized due to burnt aromas, call SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties at (208) 735-1447 because once we are done, you will not think a fire ever burned when we do such a quality job that we make it seem "Like it never even happened."

You can depend on our SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties restoration specialists to make fire loss effects “Like it never even happened.”

Know When Your Buhl Home Needs Professional Fire Damage Cleanup

Fire loss incidents can vary from one Buhl home to the next. From the differences in severity to the spread of these conditions and how concentrated or hazardous they are, no two loss incidents are identical. Knowing when a situation is out of your skill set to repair and restore can also be a challenging decision and one that homeowners must make honestly. The longer that you wait to get vital restoration services started, the more damage that could occur, and the more costly this recovery becomes.

Choosing professional restoration for fire damage to your Buhl home is not a choice that many property owners make lightly. With many remediation and recovery teams available throughout Twin Falls and Jerome Counties, you need to know that you are making the best choice for your house. Our SERVPRO team guarantees the work that we do for a full five years, setting us apart from the competition in our region. However, how do you know if you need fire recovery assistance? Here are some tips:

Substantial structural damage must get addressed immediately. Without a strong reconstruction background in the building trades, these areas do not get repaired quickly and remain exposed to further external damages like precipitation or animal infestation.

Without the appropriate equipment and training to overcome widespread effects like soot, homeowners can potentially make this damage worse and require costlier and more time-consuming recovery.

Odors often require not only approved deodorization products available to our SERVPRO professionals, but can often also require multiple units to overcome harsh odors in the environment and embedded into materials, contents, and other areas of the fire-damaged home.

Understanding when a situation is out of your realm of expertise to restore and recover can help you to save money and time on returning your house to preloss condition after a fire. You can depend on our SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties restoration specialists to make fire loss effects “Like it never even happened.” Give our experts a call 24/7 at (208) 735-1447.

Swift Fire Damage Restoration Services In Jerome

When your home suffers fire damage, it is critical for you to call for help as soon as you can. The longer that the remnants of a fire linger behind in your home, the more damage they can cause. There are several aspects of a house-fire to think about when it comes to the damage that may remain after the flames. The initial scorching left by the fire itself can be challenging to remediate on its own, but there is also ash and smoke damage to consider. Plastics and paint can become discolored as they are exposed to soot, and fabrics must be treated for smoke damage. The quicker remediation happens, the more likely it is that all of your belongings can be saved.

The fire damage inside of your Jerome home was caused by faulty electrical wiring in your living room. A power surge caused a small fire to take place, one which you quickly put out with a fire extinguisher. Fortunately, only your curtains, some of your wall, and the insulation inside of the wall burned up, keeping the area of impact relatively small. Getting a professional team of remediation technicians to your home as quickly as possible is your best option.

Here at SERVPRO, we do everything we can to uphold our reputation of being swift, friendly, and effective. When we get your call, SERVPRO can put a team together as fast as possible so our technicians can travel to your home swiftly. We always take the time to explain our solution to your problem and keep you involved, so you always know what is happening inside of your home. Furthermore, our technicians can use advanced technology to address the damages inside of your living room.

Our SERVPRO techs can clean up any ash and debris that has been left behind, such as the remnants of your drapes, and then make drywall cuts to remove the damaged section and burnt insulation. We can use a gentle cleaning solution on the scorch marks on your wall first, and then gradually build up the intensity until we're able to clean the surface. Finally, our technicians can employ a thermal fogger, which dispenses a fog-like vapor made from deodorizer, to neutralize the foul scent left behind.

If fire damage strikes your house, quickly get help. Speak with SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties by calling (208) 735-1447. Day or night, we're open, and our technicians are ready to remediate your home.

Why it is Important to Quickly Remediate Water Damage in Twin Falls

2/21/2019 (Permalink)

When flooding causes water to 'fall' inside your home, call SERVPRO to remove the water quickly.

Why SERVPRO Teams Arrive so Fast to Cleanup Flood Damage in Twin Falls

Disasters happening in Twin Falls can leave a lasting impression on our community. Floods can change the landscape, including the path taken by water flowing through our area. These changes can make a previously flood-free area prone to problems later.  

Why SERVPRO responds so quickly to homeowners in Twin Falls whose houses are at risk of flood damage is to help minimize the destruction experienced and to finish mitigation as quickly as possible. Getting your home restored so your family can return home, “Like it never even happened” is very important to us. We know that living away from home continues the stress from the flooding event, and only when everything is normal does this stop.  

Damaged areas inside a home after a flood continue to worsen steadily, with moisture spreading to previously dry areas which is why we cut above the water line after a flood when removing walls. Not only does this increase air flow through rooms but it also lets us dry out the framework, a crucial aspect in protecting your house.  

Within floodwaters, many pathogens mingle and then get laid all over your house's surfaces. These and other microbes can survive as long as moisture levels remain high. Extracting the water and then reducing the house's moisture content to within normal ranges helps eliminate many microbes. Doing this is easier to carry out early before mold has a chance to grow. Adding a microbial infestation to the situation not only increases the amount of work and time involved, but it also increases the cost of flood damage restoration.  

Our teams know the most effective techniques for restoring a home after flood damage occurs. Flooding does not always make your home permanently uninhabitable. We can make things safe again, both with the structure's integrity and the surfaces your family members come into contact with regularly.  

Helping residents in our community after a tragedy that affects every aspect of their lives keeps our community healthy and stable. Call SERVPRO of Twin Falls & Jerome Counties at (208) 735-1447 to protect your house in Buhl, Filer, or Clover from the devastation of flood damage.

Here at SERVPRO we really strive to give our customers the absolute best service we can. Here are some thoughts from some of our recent customers.

”Great, Professional Company. We were very happy with their work and service from start to finish. Would highly recommend, if you have a remediation project.” –Spencer, ID

“We suffered extensive water damage to ceilings, fixtures, walls, and floors as a result of an overflowing shower upstairs.

   Luke and his team showed up promptly and worked quickly to get the situation in hand. Over four weeks of drying, removing damaged drywall, and installing and painting new drywall, they have always been highly professional and extremely personable.

   Luke was always immediately available to answer any question, and always specifically described beforehand, what needed to be done, and what the cost would be.

   We were especially impressed with how they contained the construction dust and debris from migrating into the rest of the place. We are very pleased with the quality of their work, would highly recommend them to anyone with the misfortune to need professional mitigation services, and will be glad to be a personal reference.” Joseph, ID

“The crew at SERVPRO do an awesome job of taking care of my customers whenever there is a claim. They communicate great with my clients and myself so that everyone is on the same page. Great response time too.” Kendall, ID
