When our smiling crew went to the San Leandro property, they found a minor fire that was extinguished but left behind a slightly charred and sooty residue. Since it was wood that could be restored our SERVPRO team members happily attacked the task at hand. Decked out in their Tyvek suits and gloves they used "soda blasting" to remove the slightly embedded carbonized debris within the wood. The semi-abrasive pressurized discharge leaves the surface clean, smooth, and no wetness from water. Sodium bicarbonate (large particle baking soda) shatters on impact and thus removes the film or grime without damaging the surface. It this case, it also acts as a deodorizer. Do you have a box of baking soda in your fridge? SERVPRO has the talented employees and cutting-edge equipment to provide cost-effective and successful treatment. Just call us to make you feel "Like it never even happened."

Some jobs are large and complex... the kind of structural material that needs to be dried impacts the complexity of drying. Hardwood and masonry construction often requires specialized drying techniques and equipment. This is an example of desiccant drying at work.

Thermal imagery was created by the military to detect "warm bodies" in the dark. Like so much military technology there are many peace time uses for thermal imagery.

At SERVPRO, we use it to detect temperature changes within the walls and ceilings of a structure. If a portion of structural materials is damp it will present a different color signature and a temperature readout on the camera's screen. The benefit of using the thermal camera is the time it saves over having to use a hand held meter to press against various surfaces, and being able to aim it at ceiling and upper wall sections that would otherwise require someone to climb onto a ladder to make a reading with a hand held moisture meter device.

Rain water caused ground water flooding of a cafeteria tile floor. The picture shows the excess water is being extracted before EPA approved disinfectants are applied to the hard surface floor.
