Water damage: Simple tips for repairs & restorations

In our everyday life, we might forget to look after certain household maintenance which could lead to problems. There are many scenarios that may cause water damage. The following could be the reasons:

• Leaking or Overflowing sinks, bathtubs, toilets or pipes
• Backed up sewage and septic tank lines
• Heavy rain or storms

But no matter what be the reason, it is small steps that make a big change. Here are a few simple tips that you can implement at home:

• Clean and maintain your gutter and drains

Make sure to get half-yearly checks on your household drainage system to avoid cracks or blockage of pipes by leaves and roots. Also have your roof annually checked for cracks or pooling of water.

• Don’t pour grease down the drain

Pouring grease or any oily substance down the drain cause blockages and can cling to pipes. Even if you rinse your sink with hot water, it would not help much.

• Install backflow valves and standpipes

By installing this mechanism, it automatically prevents sewage spills or water damage from entering your surroundings.

Common causes for fire damage

There are quite a number of causes for fires, and the effect of fire damage is endless too. When it comes to safety concerns, we should think about unseen possibilities that could happen. Let’s take a look at the chief causes of fire damage at homes and workplaces:

At home: 

• Cooking equipment - When it comes to cooking equipment in the house; unattended stoves, unchecked electric cords, overheated pan or pots are to be seen to. 

• Heating equipment - Some of the reasons heating equipment can cause a fire are being careless with portable heating appliances, no mesh guard in front of a fireplace, uncleaned chimney and flue, etc. Children and wet clothes should be kept away from heaters or fires. 

• Smoking - Smoking in bed can be fatal - tiny embers can smoulder unnoticed and burst into flames later. 

At workplace: 

• Flammable Material - This can be a dangerous hazard to your employee and your business. Inappropriate storage, incorrect disposal or improper processes handling these materials or substances can lead to fire damage. 

• Human error - Spillages of flammable liquid, burning off or combustible liquid can be due to human error or accidental, which can be a cause for fire damage.

• Faulty electrics - This is one of the biggest reasons for fire breakouts. Unqualified electricians could install inferior materials, unsafe switches, incorrect fuses, double adaptors and power boards which lead to power point overloads.

3 Reasons Why Mould Remediation is necessary

Mould is a kind of fungi that grows anywhere and everywhere in the presence of moisture. Remediation is nothing but a process of correcting/ improving a bad thing. Mould Remediation can be collectively summed up as removing mould colonies from places in order to make the place favourable and safe for humans.

Here are a few reasons why Mould remediation is necessary.

• Mould colonies, when formed are harmful to human health. Cases have been reported where people living in places affected by the moulds, have been diagnosed with asthma, skin related problems, respiratory issues like throat irritation, cough, and much more. Mould colonies also precipitate and aggravate these diseases.

• Mould colonies do not take a long time to spread. A mould colony and some moisture are more than enough to infest the entire place, furniture or clothes. Also, remediating a large area will increase remediation costs.

• Mould colonies are definitely not a good sight for your eyes. It looks shabby. Imagine a situation when you are being visited by friends and the first thing they see upon entering your place is a wall covered with mould! Ouch!

Aftermath of death

What would happen if someone died in during a robbery? What would happen to that person’s body? Who cleans up the mess of gushing blood?

Forensic investigators appear, but they do not do the cleaning, nor do the police. The job is usually done by trained crime scene cleaners. They are needed to get the job done in the right way and in the right manner. The cleaners inspect the scene and make note of what need to be done.

The bio-hazardous material can be any one of blood, bodily excretions, human tissue, etc. These materials can also be harmful to the health and welfare of the occupants of the place. Many health related issues that arise are:

• HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C.

• Increase the risk of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

• Toxins that affect the nervous system and skin.

This type of cleaning requires specific speciality cleanings to avoid complications and residual contamination that could be harmful to you or anyone coming into contact with the Bio-hazardous material, which is best left to the experts at Bio Cleanse Pty Ltd.

Our trained professionals clean and restore your property to perfection even after a crime scene investigation. To consult, visit our website http://www.bio-cleanse.com.au/services/crime-scene-cleaning/ to know more about us

Insight into Dry Ice blasting

Cleanliness is next to Godliness, but maintaining cleanliness in any industry can be difficult to manage since maintenance of equipment is important to avoid accidents from happening. Dry ice blasting is one such process that helps you to remove various materials like ink, dirt, oil, paint, etc. The removed material must be dealt with in a right and systematic manner.

Dry ice blasting is also referred to as CO₂ blasting. It is done by shooting small rice size pellets of dry ice out of a jet nozzle with compressed air, against the material to be removed, causing it to shrink and fade away from the surface.

It’s generally preferred procedure when it comes to industrial clean-up, as there are multiple benefits by using dry ice blasting in the industry equipment clean up. Some of the benefits are as follows:

Reasons to remember why urine and faeces clean-up is important

Urine and faeces of animals can be a nuisance to clean. It is a very unpleasant and tedious task to do. Mostly the problem with urine and faeces arises from inappropriate handling of animal waste.

Here are three reasons as to why it is important to clean urine and faeces: 

Disease control
Urine and faeces are biohazard wastes that carry diseases like Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV. Accidental ingestion of animal waste can result in vomiting, diarrhoea, etc. Other health risks can be hookworms, roundworms and tapeworms that are also associated with urine and faeces of animals.

Fly control
A well-known fact is that flies will consume and lay their eggs in faeces. The very same fly then enters a house and spread diseases in food and on other surfaces. 

Odour control
The urine and faeces of animals contains compound that can be harmful to human beings in very high concentration. Bad odour upsets a person and also leads to respiratory diseases such as asthma, etc.

Always keep in mind that prevention is better than cure! So take necessary precautions by calling Bio Cleanse Pty Ltd.
