A water or fire damage crisis can happen at any time, anywhere.
Effective and safe schools are well prepared for any potential crisis.
Crisis response is a key component of an emergency preparedness and
risk communication plan. We cooperate with school administrators and
facilities management to work effectively and efficiently within your
risk communication plan. We routinely perform sensitive laboratory and
classroom cleanups and we specialize in critical response time.
We understand your needs and concerns and work with our clients and
their varied schedules to minimize any business/ work interruption.
Children are of the highest concern to us at J&M Keystone
and we work diligently to the highest standard to provide a clean and
safe environment for them to grow and learn in. Unfortunately, there
are about 1.4 million U.S. children whose current asthma cases are attrtrutable to dampness and mold,
based on a new federally funded estimate stating that 21 percent of
asthma cases in the United States can be attributed to those sources,
and also based on figures from the U.S Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention in 2005 that said 6.5 million U.S. children were reported to have asthma currently.
Indoor
air quality assurance is a must for such high profile buildings as a
school. With all of the discussion and concern regarding mold
amplification and its likely relationship to asthma and allergy
exacerbation, informed schools now understand that storing papers and
materials in dark damp musty places is risky at best and can very
easily lead to mold growth. The likely scenario would be a school
building built on a slope with a basement and a back wall uphill that
is 12 feet or so below ground level and has been kept moist with
landscape irrigation water. Warm and humid air outdoors gets to the
wall that has a surface temperature that is much cooler than the
surrounding air and the likely result is; mold is growing somewhere,
paper and cardboard make a wonderful food source for mold growth. This
principle also applies to deep crawlspaces and sometimes to the slab
itself.
In addition to our emergency services; water
and fire damage, mold remediation, reconstruction, we offer our client
schools large scale commercial carpet cleaning and pressure washing
services.
