We set containment on the vaults in order to help speed up the drying process

SERVPRO of  Southwest Portland received an early morning call about a water loss that turned into mold growth in a local business in the Portland area. The owner told us that there was a third-party water leak that leaked into 3 of their vaults and they were starting to notice a smell and opened up the vault to see mold.

Within 20 minutes of the call ending our crew loaded up the truck and arrived on the scene. During the initial walk-through with the owner, it was obvious that the mold smell was very strong. In addition, the owner told us that they would want us to do whatever we could to clean the contents that were affected.

Our crew chief then came up with a plan in order to get the vaults cleaned and back to preloss conditions as soon as possible. We needed a couple of air movers and containment to help dry the vaults and the contents. We loaded up the vaults and headed back to the warehouse. 

There is where we noticed that the blankets were too wet and would need to be replaced. Unfortunately during cleaning out the contents we needed to replace 5 small boxes, 3 medium boxes, and change out 15 damp moving blankets. We were able to have the vaults cleaned and dried in only two days.
