Disaster recovery requires a vast number of resources — resources that can only be offered by a provider that is backed by a $3 billion company with a network of more than 400 locations. Not only can SRM provide you with a recovery team who can respond at a moment’s notice, but we also have the know-how to properly manage the number of resources that go with it. After all, the disaster affects not only the day-to-day business but the employees who work there too.
Excess moisture caused by leaks or flooding in your home — especially in typically damp environments like your kitchen, laundry room and bathrooms — creates the perfect breeding ground for mould or mildew. To control and reduce the risk for mould growth in these areas, you must properly maintain your plumbing system and monitor appliances that use large quantities of water, such as dish washers and washing machines. Small amounts of indoor mould are unavoidable and usually harmless. In damp environments, however, mould spores can more easily reproduce and cause more serious and difficult to remove mould problems.
There are often health risks associated with finding mould in your home, including allergy-like respiratory symptoms, skin irritation, cold and flu symptoms, headaches, nausea and mould-induced asthma. It’s important to know the causes of the mould growth before it occurs, so you can work to avoid damage to both your health and your home.
