The Land of 10,000 Lakes has more than that, and we wouldn’t even object to new ones under the right conditions, one of which is that the lakes be outdoors.

The Rest of the Story Could Be Worse: Why We are Faster to Any Size Disaster

Water is called the universal solvent not because it dissolves everything that exists, and not because it dissolves everything quickly, but because it dissolves more substances than any other item. Water needed hundreds of thousands of years to carve canyons, but it needs only seconds to dissolve paper.

At SERVPRO of Aitkin, Carlton & West St. Louis Counties, we are dedicated to arriving quickly because the sooner we arrive, the more water damage we can prevent.

Further, if the water has been soaking into your workplace for over 24 to 48 hours, there is mold, and possibly other microbial growth, developing.

If there were an Olympics of destruction, mold would be a medal winner. To survive and grow, mold needs only moisture and food. The water supplied the moisture. The food is:

  • Paper
  • Wood
  • Cotton
  • Some plastics
  • Linen
  • Wood
  • Skin cells (humans shed all the time – our skin cells are all over the place)
  • Any food we eat
  • Any food waste we throw away
  • Rubber
  • Drywall

We are certified by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) in:

  • Cleaning, disinfection/decontamination
  • Restoration from water damage
  • Structural drying
  • Carpet cleaning
  • Rug cleaning
  • Microbial remediation (mold, mildew, etc.
  • Color repair
  • Upholstery and fabric cleaning
  • Health and safety
  • Other

We also have training from OSHA and have building and reconstruction services. We will make the damage “Like it never even happened.”

Trivia

Fungi can be unicellular (like yeast), multi-cellular (like mushrooms), or be dimorphic (like C. posadasii) and have one life phase in each form.
