SERVPRO of Athens training meeting

Why SERVPRO?

Safety first! SERVPRO of Athens trains its employees to always prioritize safety. We conduct regular meetings with the production crew to update safety policies and procedures. Our technicians are trained to always think of safety first. 

Carpet Cleaning

SERVPRO of Athens offers various carpet cleaning techniques.  Pictured was a room that was cleaned using the Showcase method.  This method uses a rotary machine to shampoo the carpet.  The carpet is then rinsed and steam extracted.  After the carpet is cleaned our technician will pilate the carpet.  The final result is beautiful clean carpet!

Hurricane Cleanup

Our professionals worked day and night out of state to assist those in need during the hurricane season.  Pictured you can see Matt and Sergio cleaning up after demolition due to flooding. We appreciate our production technicians and all that they do to help those who have experienced a disaster such as this.

Microbial Growth on Ceiling

A local church experienced some microbial growth on the rafters in their sanctuary. Our technicians arrived and were lifted approximately 30 feet to HEPA vacuum, clean, and apply antimicrobial the ceiling.  Safety harnesses, hard hats, and supervision was used during this extensive process.  Once the process was complete, the ceiling looked “Like it never even happened.”

Safety First!

SERVPRO of Athens is all about getting a job done! Our technicians are trained to think of safety first.  Pictured are two technicians strapping up with safety harnesses for a very high ceiling cleaning.  Our professionals are proud to show off their safety awareness!

Water Damage to Wood Flooring

Pictured is the home of an Athens, Georgia resident.  The wood flooring in her home was unable to be dried in place, so demolition of the flooring was performed.  SERVPRO of Athens removed the flooring and set drying equipment to dry the structure properly so as to prevent mold from spreading.

Demolition

Demolition may be necessary in extreme water damage cases.  Pictured is a flood cut performed due to rising water.  SERVPRO of Athens performs demolition then cleans and hauls off debris in order to further the drying process.

Storm Damage

During heavy rains and storms flooding occurs.  When the water rises to a certain depth within a structure it may be necessary to perform a flood cut.  Here you can see where we assisted a resident that had an enormous amount of rising water.  SERPVRO of Athens performed a flood cut and cleaned the debris and removed it from the home.  We then set drying equipment to further dry the structure.

Mold Remediation

This home was left unattended and had a water damage occur in the basement.  SERVPRO of Athens completed demolition and mold treatment and removal following the IICRC guidelines and protocol.  SERVPRO of Athens also used specialty equipment to dry the structure and further prevent mold from reoccurring.    

Floods in Athens, Georgia

Recently Athens, Georgia has been experiencing an abundance of floods due to rainwater.  Rising water is not clean water and can bring many contaminants into your home.  Mold spores are often left behind and travel throughout your structure rapidly.  It is imperative that you dry your structure properly in order to reduce the risk of mold growth.

Mold Caused by Rising Water

Rising water has become an issue as of late to our Athens, Georgia residents.  Water damage left unattended can cause major structural damage including mold to grow and spread throughout your home.

Full-Face Respirators

Full-face respirators protect our crews from harmful bacteria, smoke odors, and fungal growth.  It is important to make sure your respirator is functioning to its highest capability.  Pictured is our production manager demonstrating to the SERVPRO of Athens production technicians how to make sure your respirator is fitting properly.

Respirator Fit Testing

Respirator fit testing is essential in the restoration business.  This is a photograph of our production crew during their annual fit test.  Special thanks to our representative, Neil Gallien, with Abatix.  He assisted us this year and made sure that our crew is safe and within compliance.  We appreciate him taking the time to come out to SERVPRO of Athens!

Mold Remediation

This closet has high moisture content which is the perfect breeding ground for fungi.  Left untreated the fungal growth would spread up the walls creating a huge problem for this homeowner.  SERVPRO of Athens assisted with HEPA vacuuming the growth, cleaning the wall, and treating it with an antimicrobial.

Mold in an Athens, Georgia Crawlspace

Due to the high humidity in our state we see a lot of fungal growth on the joists in the crawlspace of your home.  Our professionals clean the joists and apply antimicrobial to the affected areas.  

Crawlspace Remediation

Fungal growth can be commonly found in the crawlspace thriving on floor joists.  SERVPRO of Athens offers mold remediation estimates and services.  Pictured is a completed mold remediation on the floor joist of a home. 

Demo During Storm

Our teams works together to help you during storm events.  SERVPRO of Athens is part of a storm team that travels to nearby locations to assist with disaster relief.  As always awareness and preparedness are important for all Georgians, so know your risk, make an emergency plan and stay aware.

Georgia at Risk for Hurricanes

As a coastal state, Georgia is at risk for hurricanes that form in the southern Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico.  Although Athens is not as close to either of these coast lines the catastrophic damage can reach even hundreds of miles inland.  Always know what to during a catastrophic event. 

Fire Damage

Fire damage can happen to anyone at anytime.  The best course of action is to always be prepared.  Be sure to talk with your children and have a plan in case something were to happen.

The bathroom pictured was not close to the source of the fire.  Smoke travels throughout the home causing damage to many to all of the structure.  

Stove Top Fire

Stove top fires are dangerous and scary for any homeowner.  This family had a safety plan in place.  The family evacuated the premises and safely extinguished the fire.  SERVPRO of Athens arrived onsite removed the source and began cleaning immediately for the family to return to a clean home.

Showcase Carpet Cleaning

SERVPRO of Athens offers Showcase Carpet Cleaning. This cleaning is for very heavily soiled carpets.  We use a roto machine to shampoo and agitate your carpet to loosen the soils. We then use hot water extraction to remove the heavy soils from the carpet.  In a sense it is a double cleaning for the price of one!

Each receptacle has a circuit breaker to protect cables from damage. The distribution box is designed to fail if wiring is faulty or circuit is overloaded - protecting people and property.

Source of Water Damage

Faulty plumbing supply lines can lead to an abundance of water damages.  Water damage from a sink averaged more than $7,000 per incident.

SERVPRO of Athens participated in The City of Colbert’s 4th of July parade.  It was a lot of fun for employees and their families.  Although for fun, the parade officials placed our float behind the horses.  We can only imagine it is because they wanted it to appear “like it never ever happened”!
