Your Business
6/29/2022 (Permalink)
No one wants to think about water damage to their business. When you think of water damage to your business, many owners think of water damage happening from mother nature.So why worry about what they can't control right? The fact is that you are more likely to have water damage from things that are in your control.
Some examples of water damage that can be prevented are:
- Having roofs checked regularly for cracks, one inch of rain can weigh up to 5 pounds, which can cause a lot of strain on a buildings roof
- Pipes and drains should be checked regularly for wear and tear. A crack as small as ? inch can release about 250 gallons of water a day.
- Sprinkler Systems need to be checked for signs of rust or damage so that they function correctly when you need them.
- Water heaters, Air conditioners and any other appliance should receive regular maintenance to prevent them from causing water damage
Have a plan and make sure employees know where critical shut offs are. We offer free Emergency Ready Plans to ensure you are ready in case of an emergency.
We can't stop all water damage but we can try to do as much preventative care as we can.
SERVPRO of Medford/Ashland is ALWAYS here to help. Call us today at 541-773-3740.
Jackson County home or business have mold??
5/19/2022 (Permalink)
In a typical water flooding event, if not mitigated quickly, mold can spread through a business location or a home in as little as 48 hours.
Microscopic mold spores naturally occur almost everywhere, both outdoors and indoors. This makes it impossible to remove all mold from a home or business. Therefore, mold remediation reduces the mold spore count back to its natural or baseline level. Some restoration businesses advertise “mold removal” and even guarantee to remove all mold, which is a fallacy. Consider the following mold facts:
- Mold is present almost everywhere, indoors and outdoors.
- Mold spores are microscopic and float along in the air and may enter your home through windows, doors, or AC/heating systems or even hitch a ride indoors on your clothing or a pet.
- Mold spores thrive on moisture. Mold spores can quickly grow into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants.
- Before mold remediation can begin, any sources of water or moisture must be addressed. Otherwise, the mold may return.
- Mold often produces a strong, musty odor and can lead you to possible mold problem areas.
- Even higher-than-normal indoor humidity can support mold growth. Keep indoor humidity below 45 percent.
If your home or business has a mold problem, we can inspect and assess your property and use our specialized training, equipment, and expertise to mitigate your mold infestation.

How Can You Secure Your Property
11/11/2021 (Permalink)
After a fire at your property in Southern Oregon, you may have more to worry about than fire damage. Security at a fire-damaged property can be difficult, when often areas exposed by fire make any locking doors defunct; security systems may be too damaged to operate. You may have to contend with looting, or with animals entering open areas.
The Best Steps to Take
While your property won’t be wholly secure until it’s been completely restored and all security systems effectively replaced, you can still take precautions to prevent vandalism and other issues. Those precautions include:
• Boarding up any openings in the building. If the building doesn’t provide easy access, many looters and vandals will give up before they might get caught trying to pry the boards free. This can also help keep animals out.
• Installing motion sensor lights. Putting motion sensor lights around the property in the short term can stop many animals and looters in their tracks, and will usually scare both humans and creatures away.
• Removing anything that survived fire damage from the property. This should be a major part of fire cleanup anyway, but if you remove anything surviving of value from the property, this removes the temptation to loot as well.
• Putting up temporary fencing. Temporary fencing such as chain-link fencing gives you the option to at least put a padlock on the fence, and add an additional deterrent to invasion.
While none of these methods are foolproof, they’re still a good stopgap in the short term while you take the chance to assess the fire damage and make plans for cleanup and restoration. No property owner deserves to lose what things of value they have left after already suffering the devastation of a fire. Take precautions, and secure your valuable property before human or animal invaders can do additional damage.

Changes in General Liability Insurance Regarding Sick Buildings
2/10/2021 (Permalink)
Be Aware Of The Changes In General Liability Coverage And Terms Often Used To Exclude Mold Claims.
An increase in mold insurance claims and litigation has led to changes in most commercial general liability policies over the years. Primarily, these changes have been instituted to reduce premiums and eliminate most mold coverage. Typically, these issues are grouped in with sick structure exposures, a term used to describe normal business risks and contractor responsibility. As a commercial operator, you should be aware of the changes in general liability coverage, and terms often used to exclude mold claims.
1. Pollution Exclusion
Most insurers will view a mold claim as an environmental or toxic tort claim, meaning that mold falls under the pollution exclusion. While there are arguments to be made about the validity of mold as a pollutant under the standard definitions, there is currently no dissenting or judicial opinion as to the applicability of the exclusion for the claims.
2. Business Risk
Many mold insurance claims are rejected because they are deemed a business risk issue, meaning that the fungus is a result of poor quality or craftsmanship. These exclusions lay the blame on property owners or contractors, and stipulate that the responsibility for repair is theirs.
3. Fungi or Bacteria Exclusion Endorsement
The Fungi or Bacteria Exclusion Endorsement is an amendment to many commercial general liability policies. This endorsement excludes the costs associated with mold cleanup and remediation. It also eliminates personal injury.
4. Limited Fungi and Bacteria Coverage Endorsement
While most policy changes have meant bad news for mold claims, the Limited Fungi and Bacteria Coverage Endorsement means that property owners may have some relief from mitigation costs. This endorsement may cover some of the expenses associated with mold remediation in the Jackson County, Oregon area. However, the aggregate limit is likely lower than previously offered.
Before submitting mold insurance claims, review your policy and take note of any of the above changes. While insurers are looking for ways to reduce exposure to fungi and bacteria demands, there may still be endorsements that can help. Reach out to your insurance company and discuss the coming changes and your concerns.

Can Your Business File A Claim for Smoke Damage with Your Insurance Carrier?
2/10/2021 (Permalink)
Did your commercial building or the suite next to yours recently have a fire and now you smell smoke or have smoke related damage? Is smoke damage a covered loss on your commercial insurance policy? We recommend that you contact your insurance carrier so you can learn more about what you need to know about smoke claims.
Soot Damage and Insurance
Good news is that in most cases, damage from smoke will be covered under your commercial insurance policy. Remember the sooner you act upon following these steps, could help improve the restoration of your property to its pre-damaged condition. Your preparedness could also help with your insurance company getting quick approval on your claim.
- Get in touch with your insurance company or agent and file a claim, report the smoke damage.
- Call a professional smoke cleanup company to help assess your loss and provide details of the cleanup process.
- Take photos of any damaged items, and documents, receipts for any repairs that need to be performed.
- Know that your insurance company will send an adjuster to survey the damage.
- Know that your insurance company will require proof that the money they pay you will be going towards your restoration and repair.
Smoke damage claims and the efforts to communicate with your adjuster may be challenging. However, if you have done your due diligence in following these steps, your post-fire experience can be a positive one.
SERVPRO of Medford/Ashland is here to help you painlessly deal with the fire damage, the soot damage or the smoke damage. Call us at: 541-773-3740.
