When Your Oxford, MS Business Floods
7/20/2022 (Permalink)
We have crews available 24/7/365 to help with your commercial water loss.
A water loss in a commercial space can be disastrous. It is best to know beforehand how to manage the cleanup in order to act quickly in the event of a flood or burst pipe. Here are 5 steps our team will take to handle a flooded commercial building:
- Turn off Electricity – before touching or handling the water, make sure to shut off power to the flooded area. If you cannot safely navigate to the breaker box, call an electrician to turn the electricity off at the meter.
- Stop the flow of Water - shut off the water line in the event of a burst pipe or block the flow of rainwater using flood bags or other tools. It may be necessary to call a plumber to fix any internal damages to pipes.
- Extract Standing Water – a wet/dry vacuum is the optimal tool to use for removing any standing water.
- Remove Water-Damaged material – waterlogged materials need to be removed as soon as possible to prevent mold growth and further damage. Items may be kept if they can be completely dried within 48 hours.
- Disinfect and Dry – it is important to sanitize and dry all surfaces as quickly and thoroughly as possible.
If your property has experienced water damage, storm restoration professionals like the SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale crew can help! From water extraction to tear out and drying, we have a team of professionals ready for the job.

After an Oxford, MS Restaurant Fire
7/5/2022 (Permalink)
Sometimes the fire doesn't stay in the pan.
More than 8000 restaurants experience a fire loss each year. They can range from something minor to a total loss situation. Restaurant fires cause almost $250 million in property damage each year. Whether small or large, SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale is always here to help!
Should your restaurant experience a small fire, you should know that it still needs mitigation before reopening. Soot may not always be visible to the naked eye, but once there is a fire in a structure, the soot travels everywhere. This is especially true if the HVAC system is running. All surfaces need to be wiped down, and this goes double for the dishes, glasses, and cutlery! The restaurant needs to be fully up to code before reopening.
We don't just clean soot. There is often water damage and debris left behind after a fire. Don't leave your restaurant fire cleanup to an amateur. SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale is very experienced in fire mitigation. We'll get a team together to address the issue and make it "Like it never even happened."

Don't leave money on the table!
Attention real estate professionals! We don't need to tell you that the market is on fire right now. That's fantastic, but don't leave money on the table!

Projects cost money, and your buyer could back out and look for something more move-in ready. So if your listing isn't where it needs to be, a good top-to-bottom cleaning could work wonders!
We can help you with that. SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale works with real estate agents to make their listings shine. We clean windows, walls, high-touch surfaces, carpets, rugs, ceilings, and appliances. Call today at 662-281-1881 to discuss your needs and tailor a make-ready cleaning package to bring your listing to the next level.

Restaurant Cleanings for Your Oxford, MS Establishment
7/7/2021 (Permalink)
Table for 2? This Oxford, MS restaurant received an "A" during their last inspection.
Restaurants dot the landscape in Oxford, MS. From national chains to mom and pop diners, they're everywhere you look. Sure, the food is good, but what would you see if you went inside the kitchen? You could be surprised.
A restaurant should be regularly cleaned and disinfected. A clean and sanitized kitchen reduces the spread of disease and illness among the kitchen staff, leading to fewer call-outs and sick days. Not only that, a commercial kitchen can easily become a fire hazard if the grease traps are not regularly cleaned.
The State of Mississippi has extensive regulations for the operation of restaurants, including those that are mobile. Restaurants are also subject to frequent inspections from the Mississippi Department of Health. The inspections are given a letter grade of A, B, or C. Should a restaurant pose an immediate health threat, it is shut down until it is up to code and safe to reopen.
In theory, all restaurants should remain completely up to code at all times. In reality, it doesn't always happen. Restaurants get busy and some of the required deep cleanings are put off until a later date, then an even later date, then it never happens at all. That could spell trouble if the restaurant is subject to a surprise inspection by the health department!
Don't let that happen to you. Let the trained professionals at SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale help! We offer restaurant deep cleanings that will leave you breathing a sigh of relief. We can deep clean both the kitchen and the front-of-house. Don't leave it to chance. Give us a call today at 662-281-1881 to discuss your restaurant's needs.

Commercial Sewage Loss at Oxford, MS School
10/21/2020 (Permalink)
Sewage losses can be caused by many things like backed up sewer lines or infiltration of tree roots. Whatever the cause, the damage can be messy and should not be addressed as a basic cleaning. Sewage waste can be extremely hazardous and needs the attention of professionals.
Recently we were called out to a local school here in Oxford, MS. The sewage line had become clogged and waste was coming up through the drains in the bathrooms and seeping into classrooms and offices. We had first responders arrive immediately to assess the damage so the crews could load up and get there quickly. Thankfully, the contractors had built the walls to where there was a gap in between the sheet rock and the floor. This saved the school from having category 3 water affecting the walls which made cleanup much easier. Our team extracted all the standing water and waste and treated the floors with antimicrobial and disinfecting agents. Because of the quick response we were able to get the areas cleaned up so the students could return to a safe clean environment the next day!
So, if you experience a sewage loss in your commercial building contact SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale at 662-281-1881.
Dealing with Water Damage Caused by Fire Sprinklers
10/12/2020 (Permalink)
Fire sprinklers are an excellent way to protect your home or office from a fire, however, malfunctions or accidental discharges can also leave behind a lot of damage. One of these accidents could be caused by:
- a nearby heat source such as an engine or candle
- a sudden freeze followed by a thaw
- corrosion within the sprinkler (make sure to have your sprinklers inspected regularly to prevent this)
An accidental discharge will most likely be an easy cleanup, but it is important to take care of it early. If the sprinklers are cut off soon after they begin discharging, the mess can be dried up using some towels and a mop. However, if the sprinklers are not turned off right away, the problem becomes much larger and will likely require the services of a professional water remediation company. After an inspection and assessment of the property, the team will get to work on water extraction and removal using state-of-the-art equipment and proven methods. The next step of the restoration process is drying and ventilating the soaked area. This will prevent further damage and mold growth. Here at SERVPRO we have unique equipment to make the drying process as quick as possible.
How can we service your local business?

Whether you need a simple carpet cleaning or require industrial cleaning services, SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale is here to help! Along with deep cleaning floors and specialized Covid19 cleaning, did you know you can rely on us for commercial duct cleaning too?
Maintaining a clean ventilation system is crucial in proper air quality within your office space. Make it a priority to inspect the duct work of your business. If your HVAC has not been cleaned in recent months, it could be circulating dust, odors, and other contaminants to each room. Not to mention, maintaining clean ducts can extend the life of your equipment.
Here at SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale we have trained technicians that can help decide if duct cleaning is necessary.
Other benefits of servicing your HVAC unit include:
- Helps to restore peak efficiency
- Helps to eliminate odors
- Reduced potential for mold growth
Contact us at 662-281-1881 today to discuss your indoor air quality concerns!
Commercial Mold Remediation
8/19/2020 (Permalink)
Mold growth in a working environment can cause serious health effects for both employees and customers. Once colonization is discovered, containment strategies are critical to prevent cross-contamination where foot traffic and exposed individuals could transfer mold spores to other areas of the building. There are two important containment strategies to consider when mold is found in your business:
- Containment Barriers: one of the most effective methods for keeping employees and customers out of contaminated areas is to establish physical barriers with thick poly sheeting. These temporary plastic walls will maximize the efficiency of drying and deodorization. If needed, we can even remove furniture and unaffected devices from this containment zone before sealing it off from the rest of the building/office.
- Limiting Air Circulation: mold sports can easily be carried to unaffected areas through a high-powered HVAC system. For effective containment, air circulation must be shut down until remediation has completed.
Mold remediation is a considerable challenge for office buildings. Optimally throughout the cleaning process your business should be able to continue running. Effective containment and speedy remediation techniques by our SERVPRO team can make this possible. Call us at 662-281-1881!

Sprinkler System Accident Causes Water Loss
6/18/2020 (Permalink)
Most commercial buildings require sprinkler systems. They are a great safety measure for when a fire occurs, however, if one were to go off accidentally or from construction, they could cause major water damage to your business. This particular Oxford location was having renovations done and while removing a ceiling the sprinkler was activated and began filling the second floor with water. They quickly called SERVPRO and we arrived to assess the damage within minutes. Our crew loaded up extracting and drying equipment and was on the scene soon after. They worked well into the evening extracting water and placing dehumidifiers and air movement to begin the drying process. Because they called us quickly we were able to remove the water quickly and prevent further damage to the walls andfirst floor.If you have a water loss at your commercial business, call SERVPRO of Oxford / Batesville / Clarksdale.

When owning a business, there are many factors to consider when assessing the safety of your employees and customers.

Workplace Emergency Drills
8/29/2019 (Permalink)
Unexpected events such as fires, storms, or floods can cause panic and chaos within a workplace. Conducting drills will help employees learn what to do when a disaster strikes. Having a plan and practicing that plan will ensure that your business is ready for any emergency. Here are 3 tips to help make sure your emergency drills are as effective as possible.
- Conduct Emergency Drills Regularly
The number of drills your company needs to conduct can vary based on the following factors:
- Employee turnover rates
- Employee schedules
- Workplace risk factors
- State laws
- Local municipality laws or codes
- Industry-Specific guidelines
- Keep the Drill Unpredictable
Planned drills, while still helpful, are not nearly as effective as an unscheduled drill. Regular unannounced drills will keep employees on their toes. With this approach, workers are more likely to find the best and safest building exits during a real-life disaster.
- Evaluate Each Drill
It is important to conduct regular drills, but it is also important to have post-drill evaluations. Make sure to look at what worked and where the problem areas are. Make sure to ask employees for their feedback.

When a commercial fire happens, it can be catastrophic for your business. With some fires there is clear cause, and, in some instances, it remains a mystery. Whatever the reason, SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale is ready for any size disaster.
We recently were able to help a local tire factory cleanup after a fire wreaked havoc on their warehouse. The fire began around 2 pm and as you can imagine, it grew quickly.

SERVPRO of Oxford/Batesville/Clarksdale was able to arrive quickly and begin extracting water. We worked tirelessly throughout the night and extracted roughly 12,000 gallons of water. Because this was a warehouse, the smoke and soot did not do extensive damage, so they were able to resume work immediately.

Most commercial buildings have sprinkler systems, and we all know sometimes they can go off even if there is not a fire. That was the case in this instance. The building was purchased and plans for renovations were being made so, it stayed unoccupied for a while. During that time, the sprinkler system went off unbeknownst to the owners of the building. So, when they went over to check on everything, there was standing water and mold had began to grow, EVERYWHERE!

For most full-time employees, their job is like a second home, you spend at least 40 hours a week there and in many cases your co-workers are involved in the day – to – day activities of your life. Since you are spending so much time in your office shouldn’t you maintain it the way you would your home? You pick up after yourself and maintain a fairly organized desk, but have you thought how clean the air you are breathing is? Here are so tips to ensure your air ducts are clean and your office has good air quality:
• Make sure you are using the correct air filter for your heating and cooling system
• Change filters regularly
• During renovations or construction seal off registers and don’t operate the system until after cleaning up the dust.
If you have completed this check list and still seem to have issues with your heating and cooling system give SERVPRO of Oxford / Batesville / Clarksdale a call at 662-281-1881. Routine HVAC and air duct cleanings are one of our key services and could possibly be what you need to improve the quality of air at your office.

Wildrose Kennels' puppies playing with our SERVPRO green ducks.
We spend a lot of our time at SERVPRO of Oxford, Batesville, Clarksdale assisting customers in times of emergency. Whether it’s for a water loss or maybe a fire, it’s usually something unexpected. However, not only are we trained to help in times of unpredicted incidents but we’re also there to help with planned construction and renovations.
This month we had the pleasure of helping a local business prepare their facility for renovations. Wildrose Kennels is a premier breeding and training facility in Oxford, MS. Wildrose specializes in Labradors of British and Irish influence. They pride themselves in their ability to produce a Gentleman’s Gundog. Wildrose describes their training by using what they call The Wildrose Way. It is such a sought after training that people come from all over the country to acquire one of their dogs.
The project we worked with them, concentrated on prepping their puppy house for upcoming renovations. We helped them prepare for the building contractor they had scheduled by taking the puppy house down to its bare structure. This allowed them to be ahead of the game when construction started the following week.
Initially we planned to be there for 5 days but were able to complete the job in 3. The staff there was more than helpful during our time there, even allowing us to spend some quality time with the new puppies. They were also pleased that we were able to complete our portion of their renovation process early so they could get a jump start on upgrade.
If you need help in preparing for a renovation or upgrading a residential or commercial building please call SERVPRO of Oxford, Batesville, Clarksdale at 662-281-1881.
