When your Commercial Space in Saline County needs Water Restoration

8/31/2023 (Permalink)

Don't wait, when water damage affects your commercial space, call SERVPRO of Saline County right away to begin the restoration process.

SERVPRO® is Here to Help You Deal with Commercial Water Removal and Restoration

As you already know, one of the most important keys to operating a successful retail store is having your clean, functional store front open and available for customers to shop in. One of the biggest threats to your Saline County business is a substantial water damage disaster. If plumbing lines burst inside the ceiling or wall, water can quickly spread and affect multiple areas of your building before the shutoff valve is activated. 

Cleaning up a mess from a major water loss may seem daunting and overwhelming, but you do not have to go through it alone. When you need water removal and restoration services for your Benton store or commercial facility, SERVPRO® of Saline County and Hot Springs is here to help. 

A large water loss could limit your ability to keep your business open throughout the restoration process, depending on the amount of water lost and the extent of the damage. For this reason, choosing a professional water removal and restoration company, rather than trying to do the work yourself, to complete the work and get your business back up and running can make the vital difference. 

If the water is not completely dried and removed, lingering water can lead to compounding damage and further expense down the road. Not getting the water damaged property professionally restored leaves your business open to risks for your customers and staff. For example, one of the biggest risks is the growth and spread of mold, which only requires some moisture and warm temperatures to quickly get out of control. This is not only unsightly and smelly, but poses health risks to anyone in the space. 

Our SERVPRO® of Saline County technicians are available 24/7 and will work to get your business back to preloss conditions. When our crews arrive they will quickly assess the scope of the damage, and get pump trucks and wet-vacs working to extract the water as fast as possible. This process continues until the property is dried, deodorized, disinfected, and remodeled as necessary. 

While there are threats that you always face as a business owner, there are plenty that you do not have to fight alone. Trust in the experienced technicians at SERVPRO® of Saline County to help you restore your building from any disaster you have to battle. Give us a call anytime you need us at (501) 409-6557.

Commercial Kitchen Cleaning in Benton, AR

5/10/2022 (Permalink)

They may be clean, but are they CLEAN?

Restaurants are big business in Saline County, AR. From mom-and-pop diners to national chains, restaurants dot the landscape. You know the food is good, but what's it like in the kitchen? How strictly does each restaurant follow its cleaning protocols? The answer could surprise you.

Restaurants should be cleaned and disinfected on a regular schedule. A commercial kitchen could become a fire hazard if grease is not removed from the kitchen. Exhaust fans help move the airborne grease from the kitchen, and if the fans are not cleaned regularly, it poses a serious fire hazard. A clean and sanitized kitchen also reduces the spread of disease among kitchen staff, leading to fewer sick days and callouts.

The Arkansas State Board of Health publishes a 145-page book of rules and regulations regarding food establishments in Arkansas. Lengthy chapters are devoted to the frequency of cleaning supplies and equipment used in Arkansas restaurants. In a perfect world, all rules and regulations would be followed exactly to the letter, but realistically, it doesn't always happen. Restaurants get busy and the workers mean to “get to it later,” and some of the deep cleaning simply does not happen. Should the restaurant have a surprise inspection from the state, the restaurant could be fined or even shut down until the problems are corrected. Don't let that happen to your restaurant!

SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs are ready to deep clean and sanitize your commercial kitchen to promote a safer, healthier work environment. Give us a call today at 501-776-2222. We'll make the mess “Like it never even happened.”

When Minutes Matter

Let the pros help you get your business open faster after an emergency loss.

Emergency situations are often time critical.  Time is of the essence, and the longer you have to wait for help could make the situation much worse.  Water damage is invasive and causes further damage to your business the longer the problem remains unresolved.  Water is quick to saturate the walls, giving an opening for mold and mildew to form.  Metal will eventually corrode, and depending on the type of water damage, you could be looking at a biohazard contamination.  SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs are here to help you when minutes matter. 

Emergencies are also costly to your business.  There is never a good time to suffer a fire loss because items are left behind and damaged, if not completely destroyed.   While not everything can be saved, some items can be restored.  We understand how important these items are to you and will work hard to restore them.  Should your business suffer a fire loss, SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs are fast to respond and clean up the mess.  We’ll remove the soot from your offices and make it “Like it never even happened.”

Give the professionals at SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs a call when a time-sensitive emergency such as a water loss or fire loss requires a fast response.  Our highly trained technicians are on call and available 24/7.  Call 501-776-2222.

Historic Restoration in Hot Springs, AR

Cleaned and ready for a thermal mineral bath!

Hot Springs National Park is a popular travel destination for a number of reasons -- the beauty of the mountains and lakes, the thermal springs, and the Bathhouse Row Historic District. 

Bathhouse Row originally consisted of eight grand bathhouses along Central Avenue dating back to 1892.  The only one that has remained entirely open since it was built in 1912 is the three-story, 27,000 square foot Buckstaff Bathhouse.  The interior flooring features hexagonal tile and the walls are Colorado marble.  After 110 years of continuous operation, tile and marble can start to show their age. 

How would it even be possible to restore them to their former beauty?

You call SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs!

Over the course of several weeks, we sent an overnight crew to use careful cleaning techniques in this Hot Springs landmark.  When it was all said and done, the tile and marble gleamed like they hadn't in years!

Non-Smoking Hotels

9/1/2021 (Permalink)

When someone smokes in a non-smoking hotel room, a deep cleaning is required before the room can be re-rented.

A majority of hotels have made the move to become non-smoking over the past decade. Other than designated smoking areas outdoors, hotel guests are not allowed to light up inside their rooms. Should they do it anyway, they often face stiff penalties from the hotel chain, who will likely charge a hefty cleaning fee to get the smell out of not just the room, but the HVAC system. This fine can range from $100-$500.

Depending on the strength of the smoke smell, a variety of techniques are used to remove the tobacco smell from a hotel room. The room is basically stripped, then the walls and ceilings are washed. If the room has carpet, it is shampooed. Curtains and drapes are dry cleaned and lampshades are replaced. It's a time-involved effort that costs the hotel revenue since that room has to be taken out of available inventory to be scrubbed clean.

SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs are well-versed in smoke odor and how to remove it. Do you run a hotel and have a problem making the smell stay away? Give us a call at 501-776-2222, and we'd be happy to assist you. We're fast and efficient and can help you flip that hotel room quickly so it is ready for the next guest.

Bring Your Workers Back to a Clean Office in Bryant, AR!

5/6/2021 (Permalink)

Let us help get your office sparkling clean before the workers come back full-time!

When the coronavirus pandemic struck in early 2020, a large number of companies transitioned their employees into remote workers, allowing them to work from home instead of commuting into the office and possibly catching the virus. As time went on, some employers made working from home a permanent option. Others brought their employees back on a limited schedule, allowing them to work from home for the majority of the time.

Things have changed a lot in a year. The coronavirus vaccine is more readily available, and the case numbers have rapidly dropped in some areas. This leaves employers with a decision: Where do we go from here? Many offices are opting to have their employees return to the office full-time. There have been numerous reports about workers experiencing anxiety over a return to the workplace. They've gotten used to their new schedule, and it's hard to go back to the daily grind. The office wants them back, but is the office ready for employees to return?

Are there some things about your office that needed to be done, but the pandemic pushed it back? You never got around to getting that coffee stain out of the carpet? Don't bring employees back to the same old office they left a year ago. Clean it up and make it nice and welcoming.

SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs are always here to help! We offer a variety of commercial services, including carpet cleaning. Let us get your office sparkling top-to-bottom to welcome back those who may be a bit apprehensive. It's a fresh start for everyone.

Let us make your church sparking clean before your next sermon!

Your church is your home away from home.  It should always look its best in order to inspire your congregation to come together.  While flooring types are different from church to church, many of them are carpeted.  This inspires a sense of closeness within the church community.  After a while, it can also look a bit worn-down from heavy foot traffic.  This is especially true in churches that offer Sunday School services and have a nursery for infants. 

SERVPRO of Saline County and SERVPRO of Hot Springs are always here to help!  We offer commercial carpet cleaning for churches so they'll be shiny and ready to go on Sunday morning.  We're experienced in cleaning churches large and small.  We'll make those carpet blemishes look "Like they never even happened."

How Long Before Water Damage Leads to Mold?

9/16/2020 (Permalink)

Water damage leads to mold, it is not if, but when.

Mold can start to grow within just 24 to 48 hours after water damage.

Building owners and facilities managers should arrange for mitigation as soon as possible after a flood, pipe burst or leak occurs at a structure in Perryville, AR. Find out more about mold prevention measures for commercial properties.

The First 24 Hours
As soon as signs of damage become apparent, an owner or manager should try to limit the extent of primary damage and the risk of secondary damage. He or she should immediately take the following steps:

• Contact a mitigation and restoration company
• Limit damage in any way possible
• Arrange for an inspection

A damage mitigation service should respond to a call within an hour and arrive on site within several hours. Experts should assess the extent of damage during this visit and recommend mitigation strategies.

24 to 48 Hours
A mitigation company should take measures to reduce the likelihood of mold growth within one to two days after water damage. Experts may recommend any of the following procedures:

• Pumping out standing water
• Tearing out damaged building materials
• Cleaning and disinfecting the area
• Promoting drying

It will be necessary for the affected area to dry completely before restoration begins. Air movers or fans can increase ventilation and dehumidifiers can draw moisture out of the air and any porous materials.

48 to 72 Hours
Preventative measures are still necessary even after standing water from a pipe burst, flood or leak has been extracted. Owners or managers should maintain indoor relative humidity levels between 30 to 50 percent to prevent mold formation.

Damage mitigation and mold prevention measures are critical within the hours and days following water damage. If a flood or leak occurs at a building in Perryville, AR a commercial damage mitigation and restoration company can help owners and managers stop mold growth before it starts.
