We understand the appeal of watching storms, especially from a perch indoors, or via a computer screen. Being caught in the middle of a storm is not appealing in the slightest, nor is surveying the damage from fallen trees, lightning strikes, floods, or rain-soaked hallways.

When storm damage makes the leap from “wonderous to behold” to “a disaster underfoot”, call SERVPRO of San Diego City SW right away. Our emergency services are always open; there’s no need to look up our business hours. Just call 619-269-5004, answer some questions, and we’ll get a team to your site as quickly as we can.

Since we haven’t mastered teleportation (wouldn’t that save on parking and driving hassles?), and we do have to collect the people and supplies, our arrival won’t be instantaneous, but we promise to be Faster to any size disaster, which means:

  1. We will be onsite, ready to assess the damage and start mitigation within four hours at the maximum (one we usually beat).
  2. We take all damage seriously. There is no job too small for our teams to handle. We won’t put off tending to your emergency if it one small room rather than an entire office complex.
  3. No job is too large. We are a local business -- Independently Owned and Operated – but with access to resources of the over 2,500 other franchises across the United States and in Canada. Even if a county-wide emergency descended upon us, we could continue to provide services.

Pairings We Expect

There are some things we’ve come to expect in pairs even though they can come separately, such as:

  • Salt and pepper
  • Burgers and fries
  • Movies and popcorn
  • Coffee and chocolate
  • Wine and cheese
  • Guitars and blues
  • Water damage and mold

Mold doesn’t have to accompany water damage, but after 24 to 48 hours of continuous exposure to excess water, mold spores open and develop. We know the mold spores are present because they’re always around. Mold spores survive in icebergs. Mold spores survive in deserts. Mold spores have even survived in sealed tombs, and if that weren’t enough, they can survive in outer space.

At SERVPRO of San Diego City SW, we are ready! We will:

  • Get rid of excess water
  • Remove the moisture
  • Kill mold colonies
  • Remediate water damage
  • Remediate other damage
  • Clean and disinfect

Break Time!

This week’s item isn’t off-the-charts trivial:

Under good conditions, we can hear thunder from about 10 miles (16 kilometers) away, so if we see lightning and don’t hear thunder, we know the storm is farther than 10 miles away.
