Storm and Wind Damage: Wildfire Brush, Vegetation and Dry Trees

6/22/2018 (Permalink)

Create defensible wildfire space around you home from dry brush from winter storms.

California Storms create potential wildfire plant growth.

Redding, CA is entering the hot zone.  Moving from the typical cool wet winter into the hot summer thermal layers of our Shasta basin.  Because we are in Northern California we in the inland lower elevations do not experience the humid and wet afternoon thunderstorms of other regions of the United States.

The wet and rainy winters leave scattered brush and downed tree branches strewn about the landscape.  The rain also saturates the ground providing spring plant and grass growth.  Wild vegetation accumulates and then becomes baked and dried under the scorching summer heat. 

SERVPRO of North Shasta, Trinity & Greater Tehama Counties responds to the immediate storm damage aftermath of wind-blown and wet scattered debris.   We understand the seasonal aftereffect of uncleared, now dry, wood, branches and combustible building material ready for a simple spark to create a firestorm.

Rain Storm / Fire Storm / Mold Growth

Storms create the potential for both water and fire damage. Also, please remember that mold contamination can creep into home or commercial water damage from a storm or the fire department water used to put out a fire created by uncleared storm material. SERVPRO of North Shasta, Trinity & Greater Tehama Counties follows strict guidelines and industry protocol when mitigating mold. We isolate the affected area using physical barriers and a negative air pressure chamber for proper remediation. Mold must be taken very seriously; it poses health risks. It’s important to address any flooding issues as quickly as possible, because mold can begin to grow within 48-72 hours.
