Building Connections In The Community

10/12/2024 (Permalink)

Working at SERVPRO®  means often times meeting people at their lowest. Our main jobs entail cleaning up and mitigating damage to people's homes and businesses from water and fire, along with many other cleaning services. We regularly carry out the reconstruction to repair the damage and make it look like "it never even happened."

Occasionally we get the opportunity to meet other members of our community who are also trying to make a difference. This week we got to meet with York City Fire Department and take a tour of their facility. It was fun getting to know some of the volunteers and firefighters over dinner. They even let Kevin sit in a firetruck! It was definitely the highlight of the week for him.

We Are Penn State!

When people think of SERVPRO® they usually think of the way we clean up fire and water damage. Maybe they think back to events where they may have seen us handing out goodies and swag to help people understand what it is we do. 

We love taking the opportunity to help out in our community when we can and another way we've done that is by being proud supporters of Penn State Athletics for a second year!

Of course we enjoy catching the games, but watching them win their first two games of the season makes us even more proud to be supporting them. 

We can't wait to root for them and see what they do this year. Say it with us We are Penn State!

Last Week's Storm Brought A Lot Of Water Damage

As the rain poured down last week, the calls came rolling in. Hurricane Debby left a lot of water and flooding in her wake. We went out to call after call, from flooding basements to leaking roofs and mold mitigation as well.

SERVPRO® handles any home and business damage, whether it's fire damage, smoke damage, water damage, mold, or general cleaning. Just give us a call and we will do our best to make the whole process go smoothly for you.

Loss in your home or business can be a very stressful time, but you can count on us to make it look "Like it never even happened." We are open 24/7, 365 days a year including holidays to make sure we can get to any scene faster than the competition. Give us a call as soon as you notice any sign of loss!

Is Mold Growing In Your Home?

The latest heat wave has been a rough one. On top of that we have had a few days of heavy rain and overall mugginess. Escaping indoors to an airconditioned home or business can feel like heaven. But, maybe you've started to notice a certain smell. A certain earthy, musty, not fresh smell.

Maybe you smell the smelly smell of something that smells smelly? If you know what I'm talking about, you may have a mold problem in your home or business. Heat and moisture can create the perfect atmosphere for mold growth. 

Mold is not only bad for your health, it can be damaging to structures as well. Make the safe choice and don't hesitate to call SERVPRO of Adamstown, Mohnton if you suspect mold (717)484-0007. We specialize in thorough cleaning services that can have your space smelling fresh again.

Don't Let Your Fourth of July Celebration Cause Fire Damage!

7/4/2024 (Permalink)

It's the fourth of July and that means there will be a surge in fires and fire damage. Between the heat waves, random bouts of dry weather, and the holiday fireworks and firepits, fires become a big concern.

This year make sure you stay safe and vigilant if you are grilling outdoors or lighting some of those fun little bottle rockets and sparklers that the kiddos love. It's always best to have a source of water ready to put out fires that may spark to life. 

One thing I always do is have a pitcher of water ready for used sparklers and fire crackers. It's best to collect them after use and submerge them in the water until they are fully soaked through, thus avoiding anything from catching fire.

As always if you find yourself dealing with a fire damage give us a call at (717) 484-0007!

Fire Damage? SERVPRO Is On The Way!

Fires can happen at any time and SERVPRO® is always ready when the calls come in. 

Recently our business development manager was at a networking event for SERVPRO when a fire damage call came in. She was offered the opportunity to ride along and see how everything is handled from the start. 

On top of sorting through the mess to see what could be saved and what plans needed to be made she got to witness how SERVPRO technicians handle the customers after a fire catastrophe. It warmed her heart to see how comforting and professional the techs were and how quickly they got to work cleaning the mess. 

By the time she left the scene, plans were already made and in motion to make it "Like it never even happened."

Watch Out For That Summer Heat!

The weather has finally gotten warmer, somedays it's a little too warm. If your AC can't beat the heat give SERVPRO of Adamstown, Mohnton a call so we can clean it up and get it back into tip top shape!

Once your AC is fixed you can get back to enjoying more fun things like maybe a round of golf! The SERVPRO crew just enjoyed our own games of golf at the Foxchase Golf Club with Real Life Community Services. We got to have a blast and do it for a good cause!

Whether you're enjoying a little putt putt in the yard or maybe just barbequing out back be sure to look out for brush fires that can start and grow rapidly. With the weather drying up grass can catch fire and spread quickly to your home. 

Make sure you have immediate access to water or a hose if your going to have any open flames in your yard, but if the worst happens you can give SERVPRO of Adamstown, Mohnton a call 24/7 365 at (717)484-0007.

What Memorial Day Really Means

5/28/2024 (Permalink)

Many people see Memorial Day as a fun extension of the weekend. A day to relax and have cook outs, to enjoy the nice weather and maybe spend the day at the pool or beach. And even though we do all that, the truth is we wouldn't be able to enjoy any of it were it not for the fearless soldiers that have sacrificed everything for this great country. 

This Memorial Day please take the time to think about the reasons why we celebrate. Remember the courageous souls who gave all so we can keep our freedom.

For those of us at SERVPRO of Adamstown, Mohnton their sacrifices will never be forgotten. We are only the home of the free because of the brave.

A couple SERVPRO gals at the auction.

Saturday evening our business development manager, Jordan and our digital marketing rep. Vicky enjoyed a community event for a good cause. The Patriotic Stitchers for Veterans hosted a live basket auction fundraiser for veterans. 

Along with the baskets for the auction there were items up for raffles on the side and a fun 50/50 raffle as well. A hand-made book case and some Amish made cabinets were donated to the auction too.

Local businesses including SERVPRO of Adamstown, Mohnton donated baskets to be auctioned and all of the proceeds are going to buying yarn and quilting materials for future blankets. The blankets are given to our Veterans in hospices in Lancaster, York, Harrisburg, Lebanon, and Coatesville VA hospitals.

The SERVPRO team knows there are many ways to help our communities outside of fire and water damage restoration. If you have an interest in donating or helping the Patriotic Stitchers for Veterans you can reach them at PatrioticStitchersforVets@gmail.com or give them a search on facebook!
