Wet Basement

A wet basement poses a significant threat to the rest of your property. Of course, if you have invested in this in-ground space of your home or business, then you are probably actively seeking action to remediate the area. You do not need to have a finished basement to know that this is space to keep protected – basements are very useful. However, many property owners are just not in tune with this room, storing many of their valuables there and then focusing on other property aspects. Whether you use this space frequently or not, it is a piece of your property demanding attention. Take action on your wet basement now! We offer a free estimate in Florida at 904-701-3711 or in Georgia at 404-721-1632. A wet basement has many causes and may run the spectrum from mild to severe. You obviously would take note of a severe case that could involve flooding. Such causes are often natural, such as the significant rise in water level from bodies of water or an extremely heavy downpour from storms that our part of the country frequently experiences. Other major causes of significant basement water include broken pipes, sewage drain backup, an insufficiently-graded yard, a broken window, a brimming window well or a broken water heater. There are also more subtle causes and effects of a wet basement, including groundwater that comes in as seepage, which may frequently come through cracks in a foundation. Soil moisture often works its way into basements in ways it cannot in surface-level rooms, due to the pressure of soil. The innate ground pressure from soil often makes seepage a greater liability, with the pressure acting as a conduit for water to work its way inside. Rainwater that is not drained far enough away from your walls, or from a rising water table, often finds its way into basements because of this pressure. The problem with the slow increase of moisture content rather than the sudden storm of a major flood is that property owners often do not notice the problem very quickly, especially if their basement is not frequently visited. Sometimes it may simply be high humidity raising the moisture content in this room to unsafe levels. Mildew and mold are problems involved with a wet basement with which no homeowner should flirt. Both forms of growth can quickly spread throughout your property, eventually eating away your materials, creating unpleasant odors and creating health hazards from allergic reactions to infections and dizziness. Once mold and mildew become established in your home or business, they are extraordinarily difficult to get rid of. We are a company featuring industrial-strength equipment and proficient know-how to either prevent this growth from happening in the first place, or to remediate your property once it has. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to drain your flooded wet basement, and we will get to your place within the hour. Members of our fleet will arrive with the strongest pumps and vacuums to jettison the invading water, and we have highly effective air scrubbers to treat the air in your home or business, restoring an environment of breathability that all occupants would expect. After all, there is no more fundamental necessity to life than having air that is safe to breath. For all concerns, we are ready to serve you. Read more at www.advanceddryingtech.com

Carpet Water Damage

Carpet water damage must be taken seriously for at least two important reasons. First, indoor carpeting is an investment, and if we can restore it you avoid replacement costs. Second, within a day or at the most 48 hours, even clean water can grow mold and bacteria that are a serious health hazard. The carpet and padding sop up water like a towel, and it must be professionally removed – in a timely manner. Call us quickly when you suffer carpet water damage. The number is 404-721-1632 in Georgia and 904-701-3711 in Florida. You will get a technician on the line to help you. Floods, broken pipes and fire sprinklers take a toll on carpeting in homes and businesses. Our professional technicians armed with the newest equipment can take steps to clean carpet water damage and then recondition and restore existing carpet. The length of time carpets have been under water is a primary consideration. The damage to the backing gets worse the longer the carpet sits in water. Carpet fibers are held together with polyurethane backing which water destroys. This makes our professional water extraction essential. We will use powerful pumps and custom designed water extracting machines to get carpeting out from under standing water. After water extraction high speed fans are pointed at the surface of the carpet, to speed drying. Since the padding under carpet must be dried, too, we separate the pad from the carpet so that drying air reaches the carpet water damage on the underside, too. At the same time we must employ commercial grade dehumidifiers to get moisture out of the air quickly. Excess indoor humidity slows drying and encourages microbes. Carpets generally need microbe-killing treatment to ward off mold and mildew. Your carpet will be treated – fogged and sprayed -- with an anti-microbial to inhibit the growth and spread of mold and mildew. This must happen with 72 hours of carpet water damage occurring because mildew starts feeding off of the organic matter in the carpet and mold starts germinating. Steam cleaning will also eliminate bad odors in carpet that had been very wet. There are also enzymes that can be fogged that work at the molecular level to break up odor causers. Mold gradually destroys whatever material it grows on. It is an allergen, and irritant and harmful to the respiratory system. As further evidence of the hazard mold presents, if our crews have to engage in mold removal due to carpet water damage that cannot be reversed; they wear personal protective equipment including gloves, a respirator, and goggles. If mold is more serious, they may add disposable overalls for additional safety. An entire home or business space with moldy carpet may put crews in disposable full body clothing, head gear, foot coverings, and a respirator that covers the entire face and has a special filter. They use a HEPA air filter to entrap mold spores circulating with the air. Replacing padding and cleaning carpets with hot water extraction equipment (steam cleaning) is often the final step in repairing carpet water damage. Padding that was immersed or was soaked for long periods of time will likely warp and clot and cannot be smoothed enough when the carpet is set down again. We may not be able to save the padding, but we have years of experience salvaging carpeting. Read more at www.advanceddryingtech.com

Getting Rid Of Mold

Getting rid of mold can be safe and effective – when handled by our certified technicians – or if you do it yourself and do it poorly it will make the problem worse. Mold spores are so dangerous, so microscopic, and so easily circulated by air that removal must be handled by our specially trained and equipped teams.

From time to time you hear someone ask, “What’s the big deal about mold? It smells a little musty and looks a little ugly. Why not wash it off once in a while? Isn’t it natural, like penicillin?” Unlike penicillin, mold cures nothing and causes a host of illnesses when spores are inhaled. It can turn any workplace into a “sick building”. That musty odor is an indicator that you have a concentration of airborne spores “A little ugly” black or green slime is constantly reproducing and spurting spores into the air you breathe. It also eats away at building materials. Getting rid of mold should be a priority. If you “wash it off once in a while” all you do is spread the contaminants. You’ll just make the growth spot even bigger. “What’s the big deal?” It is a toxic substance; a biohazard. Read more at www.advanceddryingtech.com

A flood or water emergency leaves hazards to the quality of indoor air

Failure to reduce moisture and humidity can present serious long-term health risks. If there is too much moisture in the air, materials never fully dry. They become a breeding ground for microorganisms, such as viruses, bacteria, and mold. They can cause disease, trigger allergic reactions, and continue to damage materials long after the flood, including fostering wood rot. This kind of high level humidity and moist materials provide an ideal environment for the growth of microorganisms. Coming into contact with air or water that contains these microorganisms can make a person sick. Long-term high levels of humidity can foster growth of dust mites, which can cause asthma and trigger allergic reactions and asthma attacks.

Household Mold

Household mold has names such as Stachybotrys, Aspergillum, and Cladosporium. What they all have in common is that they are hazardous to your health and your family, and they can infect even the cleanest home. Call us now to identify and safely remove household mold. Dial 404-721-1632 in Georgia or 904-701-3711 in Florida and talk to a technician for a free estimate. The most common sources of mold: A hidden leak inside walls An undiscovered roof leak Any kind of water intrusion, such as a pipe break Structural moisture that was not thoroughly dried following a water event Uncurbed humidity Moisture from any source will be absorbed by building materials including wood, insulation, drywall and plywood. While dry rot and structural damage are obvious risks, the health threat from household mold is the most immediate concern. Your first clue may be a musty odor. You or a family member may already be suffering a reaction such as burning eyes, dry cough or skin rashes. Call us for mold inspection, testing and removal. We maintain the most advanced technology available, utilize industry and government standard methods for safely cleaning up mold, and all of our technicians have earned the IICRC – the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certificate.

Why homeowners take household mold seriously: The species Stachybotrys thrives on water damaged building material such as insulation, sheet rock, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, and more. This black, slimy growth often grows unnoticed for a period of time. It feeds on hidden moisture. This common fungus produces what are called mycotoxins, which are very toxic. They are suspected of causing cancer and have been known to suppress the body’s natural defenses against infection. Aspergillus varieties of household mold are proven to cause human disease. It also produces dangerous mycotoxins and is known for the speed with which it grows on a wide variety of surfaces. The danger in this species comes when the fungus is inhaled and begins to grow in the lungs, forming a ball. Cladosporium looks either dark green or black and can resemble velour or chalk. It is often found on the surface of fiberglass duct liners when there is a duct leak or excessive humidity buildup. These fungi cause skin lesions, sinus infections, asthma, and lung infections. As you can see there are different species of common household mold, but all need to be taken care of before excessive amounts result in serious health effects. Even pets are not immune to the health hazard. Read more at www.advanceddryingtech.com

Mold Detection

mold detection

You want to find mold early – before people get sick and building materials are ruined. Call 404-721-1632 in Georgia and 904-701-3711 in Florida now to talk to a certified technician about mold detection.

Infrared technology has revolutionized mold detection. This is how our certified technicians “see through walls” to determine the location of the source of the moisture that is feeding the mold. This heat detecting tool also identifies concentrations of mold.

Air quality sampling in several spots in the affected area determines the amount of airborne mold spores, which is another indicator of the severity of the problem. Special mold detection “cassettes” containing a HEPA (high efficiency particle absorbing) filter snare spores. Laboratory tests measure the air samples and “count” the intensity of the outbreak.

Surface sampling is another mold detection technique. This may involve accessing the inside of walls, floors and ceilings. Often it is possible to make a determination of the scope of your problem without cutting through to interior surfaces.
