puroclean professional services: Bathroom Tip Regarding Mold Growth
- 10/14/10 07:38 AM
Places that are often or always damp can be hard to maintain completely free of mold. If there's some mold in the shower or elsewhere in the bathroom that seems to reappear, increasing the ventilation (running a fan or opening a window) and cleaning more frequently will usually prevent mold from recurring, or at least keep the mold to a minimum. 866-944-7876 Northeast Ohio's "Paramedics of Property Damage"

puroclean professional services: Selling A Home With Mold and Water Damage in a Crawl Space?
- 09/30/10 03:54 AM
It is always important to control water entry into buildings - especially crawl spaces. Wet crawl spaces promote the growth of microbes, degrade structural members, attract harmful insects, and cause other types of property damage. If water does enter through a leak, flood, or accident, it should be removed immediately and the affected area completely dried. As with many situations, an ounce of prevention can be worth a pound of cure. Planning to keep water from entering a crawl space - such as during heavy rains - can save on costly clean-ups later on. Here are some helpful prevention tips: •

puroclean professional services: Fire Safety
- 09/27/10 03:53 AM
The National Fire Prevention Association has designated October as Fire Prevention Month. In many parts of the country, October begins the "heating season" - when fires are more common than during the rest of the year. October is also the month ushering in the holiday season (counting Halloween), and the holidays themselves are a season of increased fire risk. For instance, more residential fires occur on Thanksgiving Day, than on any other single day of the year - more than double the daily average! Candles are always beautiful, and they are especially abundant during the holiday season. The top five days

puroclean professional services: Sewer Line Problems That Stink, To a Homeowner's Wallet
- 09/17/10 04:10 AM
Sewer Line ProblemsThe portion of the sewer line that extends out from a home and onto city property is often the homeowners' responsibility when it comes to repairs. Sewer line problems are most common in older neighborhoods, where the line may have sagged or has been damaged by tree roots. If you have slow running or gurgling drains, frequent backups in your plumbing system or sewage smells outside your home, these may be indications of a problem. Again, your home insurance policy may cover this cost, expect this doozy to cost anywhere from $5,000 to $15,000 for a 100-foot sewer pipe.

- 09/17/10 04:03 AM
Water DamageIf your home isn't water tight, this isn't something you can ignore.

How to prevent it: Be vigilant about water damage in your home; if you find leaks or areas that tend to be damp, have them repaired before long-term

puroclean professional services: Mold Issues That Can Be Pricey to a Homeowner or Seller
- 09/17/10 04:00 AM
Unlike major water damage, such as that caused by flooding, minor or hidden water damage in your home, perhaps from a defective water pipe, hot water heater or window seal, can cause just as much damage -- and you may not notice it right away. Similarly, if your home suffered through a flood in the past and did not adequately dry out, mold can also thrive. (If you live in a flood-prone area, flood insurance is a must.) A 2005 study by the National Resources Defense Council showed that New Orleans homes that had been flooded or were even near areas
