Ceiling to floor cover with KILZ oil based primer to prevent smoke odor after a fire.
Clean up after an apartment fire.
One of the units in this building caught fire and once we were cleared to step in and help the building owner, SERVPRO had to tear everything out; down to the studs. All studs and walls that still maintain their structural integrity are sprayed with KILZ, this Oil-Based Primer is a powerful stain blocking formula that blocks most heavy interior stains including water, smoke, tannin, ink, pencil, felt marker, grease, and also seals pet, food and smoke odors. This helps keep down cost and will provide the homeowner with an odor free home, "Like it never even happened".
Out of sight out of mind - Fire Damage

Smoke damage that we see, but what is the damage behind the walls?
When your home experiences a fire there are a few things that you probably didn't think about that could have taken on damage.
- Ducts and HVAC system
- Installation
- Behind the Drywall
- Electrical
- Attic and crawl space
- Structural Integrity / Framing
- Soot and smoke will damage furniture, flooring, cabinets,
If the fire didn't touch it or damage it, the soot and smoke did. Soot isn't always visible and it will damage the air quality and all items in the home. Before you have the professionals come out to clean up, cover the furniture with blankets and lay down mats or blankets in high traffic areas to protect the flooring.
SERVPRO of Bullitt and N. Nelson Counties is here to help you! No job is too large or too small.

A Leak can go Undetected for Days
9/14/2022 (Permalink)
All of the kitchen cabinets had to be removed so we could remove the flooring. Once the floor was removed, we can dry out the area.
The homeowners were unaware of a leak in their kitchen sink for several days and didn't notice the damage until the floor was soft. (It's always a good idea to keep the cabinet clear of clutter so you can catch a leak sooner than later.) By the time SERVPRO was able to rescue the homeowner, the water soaked through an extra board in the cabinet, under the cabinet, down to the subfloor, and the water made its way into the next room; damaging the floor in the bathroom.
SERVPRO is here to help make it right. We communicate well with the homeowner and insurance company so we can make it, "Like it never even happened".
Though the process may be startling at times, we work fast to put your life back together.

Hidden Water Damage
9/1/2022 (Permalink)
saturated subfloor, under carpet.
How to spot hidden water damage and where you can expect to find it.
Building materials and water do not mix. Pipes behind the walls can leak over time causing damage without you knowing, effecting the wood studs, plywood sheathing, subflooring and insulation - feeding mold growth and rot. Flooring, walls, and ceilings could buckle and warp. When these materials absorb water it becomes dangerous when their structural integrity is compromised.
A few signs to watch out for:
- Increased water bill
- Damp window seals
- Discoloration / Stains that grow
- Bubbling or peeling on your ceiling or walls
- Long lasting musty orders
SERVPRO of Bullitt and N. Nelson Counties is 24/7 and is able to find the moisture even if you can't see it with our moisture reader. We can detect if your home is need of repair or if it's as simple as us bringing in our equipment to dry the space out after locating the leak and fixing it.
It's very important to address any leak so your home remains a healthy and safe environment for you and your family, preventing hazardous conditions and mold.
Let SERVPRO help, Like it never even happened.
Things you do NOT want to Ignore after Water Damage

flooded basement from sump-pump failure.
Water has impacted your home and the visible water was removed. Now what? Everything is alright...Right?
Not necessarily.
There are underlying issues at hand that you may have overlooked.
- Health Issues >> Moisture can be lingering and it's likely that mold is developing. Pay attention to musty smells.
- Structural Damage >> If the water damage was not dried out by professionals then your home is at risk of rotted frame work, support beams, and subflooring. There may still be hidden water that is pooling.
- Electrical Problems >> Don't take any risks when it comes to electricity, it doesn't mix with water. Don't put yourself or your family in harms way of electrical shock or fire.
Call SERVPRO to make sure the water and moisture is pulled out of your home so you can relax, knowing that you're taken care of.

Our equipment drying the space after the water was removed from the flooded basement.
The typical timeline for a water job is around 3-5 days for a SERVPRO restoration specialists to take care of water damage.
- DAY ONE: Is all about stabilizing the damage. This means we set out the Air movers and extract the standing water.
- DAY TWO: We have most likely been in touch with the insurance adjuster and have a better idea as to what we are allowed to do. When given the approval, we begin tearing out the damage.
- DAY THREE-FIVE: we are focused on drying and monitoring the job.
Once the job has been completed the last step is for our SERVPRO specialists to come by and pick up the equipment.
