While this time of year is a great time to enjoy BBQs, fire pits, and fireworks, it is also a time to be wary of potential fire hazards that could impact your home or business in Three Rivers, MI.
Here are 6 tips to help keep your Summer fun AND safe!
- Keep a bucket of water or, as is required in many towns, a hose handy near your fire pit. If embers float out of your fire pit, or a log falls down from your bonfire stack and sets nearby foliage, paper, or other flammable materials aflame, you don’t want to be scrambling for a way to put the fire out.
- Supervise all fireworks that you are using (if fireworks are legal in your state, of course). Sparklers and pinwheels might seem “low risk,” but the reality is that there aren’t any fireworks out there that are safe enough for kids to use without adult supervision.
- It’s also important to ensure that no one tries to re-light fireworks that don’t work properly the first time. Dump these in a bucket of water and move on to the next package.
- Keep your grill or BBQ pit clean! Prevent accidental grease fires by cleaning out your pits or grease traps
- Inspect the area around your BBQ and campfire. It is important to make sure that you there is nothing flammable around where you are going to be lighting a fire. - Consider deck railings, overhanging, branches, dry grass, piles of dry wood and recycling, brush nearby
- When you will not be supervising the fire, make sure you put it out! Call SERVPRO @269-273-8777

Winter Maintenance Tips for Commercial Buildings in Sturgis, MI
3/11/2022 (Permalink)
If you are needing a commercial cleaning company to clean your winter grime, call us today at (269) 273-8777.
Welcome to another winter in Sturgis, MI, the season of bitter cold, freezing rain, and blowing snow. A season that all you do is hunker down and hibernate until Spring. Unfortunately, that is unable to happen, and work must go on! It is important to make sure that your commercial building is ready for the cold winter weather. Here are several tips to make sure that your building is winter safe:
- Inspect your heating systems: When the weather changes and your turn on your heating system it is important to have it inspected and that all maintenance is done. If there is buildup in the flue-pipe or vent than there is chance of carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Set your Thermostats: It is important to make sure that your employees are warm during the winter, but its’s also imperative that your building stays warm too. Blistering winds can freeze pipes especially if your heating system isn’t working. Also, by calibrating your thermostats, you’ll make sure your heating systems are operating efficiently, which saves you money on your heating bill.
Inspect doors and windows: If you have gaps in your doors or windows it is good idea to use weather stripping. Doors and windows are prime entrance ways for cold, water, and pests to enter your building and can cause damage to your interior items. The warm air can also escape causing your heating bill to rise.
- Entrance Mats: It is cost efficient to have proper winter weather mats at all entrances and exits and your building. Did you know 80 percent of the dirt found in buildings such as offices and shopping spaces was tracked in on people’s shoes? The cost to have carpets cleaned or floors stripped and waxed can cost a lot of money. A good guide is that people entering should have three steps on a mat with each foot. The mats should give a little traction and should be rubber underneath to alleviate potential slip hazards.
Following these safety tips will help keep your building, employees, and customers safe from tragedy this winter season. If you are needing a commercial cleaning company to clean your winter grime, call us today at (269) 273-8777.
Surviving This Year's Flu Season in the Office

Call SERVPRO of St. Joseph and Cass counties at (269) 273-8777 for a FREE office cleaning quote.
Need a professional Office Cleaning Company to have a safe clean environment for your employees? After the outbreak of COVID-19 last year, it is very important to keep your office environment clean and stop the spread of germs. We have a few tips to tell your employees to help stop the spread of germs and hopefully keep your employees healthy and reduce the amount of absenteeism.
6 TIPS FOR A CLEANER WORK ENVIRONMENT:
- Make sure all “touch point” areas are thoroughly cleaned. Touch points are areas that are touched by more than one employee in the office such as:
- Phones
- Computer mice
- Doors/Door Handles
- Faucet handles
- Light switches
- Office equipment
- Elevator buttons
- Stair rails
- When you are sick- stay home!
- Stop coughing or sneezing into your hands
- Regularly wash your hands during the day
- Alcohol based hand sanitizer is effective, but not as good as washing your hands
- Get a flu shot
A healthy work environment doesn’t happen by accident, it happens by intention. Keeping your workplace healthy and getting at least some protection from the flu requires that your office cleaning company put policy and training into place that ensures that your office cleaning staff knows how to clean to reduce bacteria, viruses and other common infectious diseases and limit the spread of disease in your facility. Call SERVPRO of St. Joseph and Cass counties at (269) 273-8777 for a FREE office cleaning quote.

Before winter hits, call SERVPRO of Cass and St. Joseph Counties to conduct an ERP on your facility.
When you live in Michigan, you know that winters can be hard on buildings. Besides the constant cold temperatures, we also often get lake-effect snow, which is dense, heavy, moisture-ridden snow and often causes limbs of trees to break or roofs to fall in! With that being said, we have some tips to help prepare your business for the Michigan winter coming soon.
- Check your business property for downed tree limbs and branches. Weather, from wind, heavy rain and ice to lake-effect snow, can cause branches to fall, which could bring damage to your commercial property and potentially cause personal injuries.
- Inspect your property, especially walkways and parking lots, for proper drainage to alleviate flood hazard and icy spot potential.
- Inspect all handrails, stairwells and entryways to address and correct potential slippery or hazardous areas. Install mats or non-slip surfaces and post caution signs where water can be present. Ice your sidewalks and walkways.

Carpets act as a filter, trapping dust, dirt, gases, animal hair and other soils. Dirt builds up in layers, and when a carpet looks dirty you are only seeing the dirt at the tips of the fibers. If you wait until carpets look really dirty, the carpets may never be restored to their former appearance. How often you’ll need to have your carpets professionally cleaned depends on soil build-up, traffic, type and color of carpeting. A good rule of thumb is to have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12 months.

Damage to your Burr Oak, Michigan Business

Let SERVPRO of Cass and St. Joseph Counties get you back up and running!
When business owners visualize water damage, they often picture a massive storm wiping out power lines, flooding offices, and shutting down business for days at a time. It is true that commercial water damage is often the result of floods and water that stems from weather events and storms, however, many entrepreneurs and business space renters forget that storms and severe weather aren't the only causes of floods and water damage. Here are some of the typical causes of water damage to commercial buildings:
- Malfunctioning sprinkler systems
Some older office and retail buildings still have outdated sprinkler systems that work in conjunction with fire protection systems. While such sprinklers can come in handy during a fire emergency, they can also cause commercial flood damage if they are faulty or in need of replacement. This could easily damage inventory and business assets.
- Damaged appliances and equipment
This cause of commercial flood damage is more common in restaurants and catering facilities, as well as any business that has appliances and equipment that make use of water.

Snow and Salt Damaging your Carpets?
1/2/2018 (Permalink)
The winter season can be harsh on your carpets. Snow, ice, and salt are constantly being brought into homes and businesses. Here are some tips to help prevent water and salt stains on your carpet.
- Use two welcome mats. One to wipe your feet on outside, and one to wipe your feet on the inside.
- Use long runners or winter rugs along any high traffic areas in your home or business.
- Keep up with snow removal around your sidewalks and porches. The less snow outside your home or business, the less snow that can be brought in.

- Have a spot removal program in place. Whether it's weekly or monthly, deep cleaning and removing stains will lengthen the life of your carpets.

Has Your Sturgis Business Had Their Carpets Cleaned Yet?

Leave it to SERVPRO of Cass & St. Joseph Counties to get your carpets looking as good as new!
It is a good rule-of-thumb to have your carpets professionally cleaned at least once or twice a year. How often you get them cleaned is going to depend on the color, traffic, and soil build-up of your carpets. Carpets are known to trap dust, dirt, gasses, pet hair, and other soils. We recommend that don’t wait till your carpet looks really dirty before cleaning. Since the dirt builds up in layers, you don’t want the dirt hiding below the surface to become lodged and damage your carpet. SERVPRO of Cass & St. Joseph Counties offers multiple cleaning options that fit your upholstery or carpet in your business. Some of our specialized cleaning methods include:
- Bonnet Cleaning: A less aggressive method for short piled carpets.
- Hot Water Extraction: A deeper cleaning method for all carpet types.
- Deluxe Precondition and Rinse: Helps restore deeply soiled areas.
- Showcase Premier Cleaning: The most thorough cleaning method in the industry.
- Dry Cleaning: When color-fastness is an issue.
