Swinomish Village Cleanup and Restoration

Fire Damage & Water Damage in Swinomish Village

Daily life in Swinomish Village gives us new opportunities to demonstrate to others that we care about them. Even a smile or a nod while passing someone can signify our bond with everyone else here. Doing our part in helping work against the negative impacts of climate change helps our society by leaving a more positive legacy for future members. 

Enjoying time at any of our six beaches is just as important as collecting subsistence items or removing any litter we might find. All six of our beaches: 

• Snee-Oosh Beach,
• Lone Tree Point,
• Swinomish Channel near the fishing dock, 
• The Flats,
• Martha’s Bay Beach, and
• Hole-in-the-Wall Beach

They are tested regularly for higher-than-normal levels of harmful bacteria. Notices go out if dangerous levels exist, letting anyone fishing or swimming know the risk. The water around us supports all life, especially the salmon, so we must do everything possible to keep it protected and healthy.

Rapid Mitigation of Fire Damage Leads to Fast Recovery after a Disaster

SERVPRO’s mitigation experts start with removing the fire department’s water and anything that melted or shows charring. We set things up so they can dry more rapidly. This step includes:

• Preliminary upholstery cleaning and removal of stains on carpeting,
• Propping furniture cushions, so all sides are exposed to air currents,
• Beginning deodorization services, and
• Having a heat source, so air temps reach at least 72 degrees.

These steps facilitate fire damage mitigation, cleanup, and restoration.

Fast Water Damage Cleanup Reduces Costs

Before starting anything, we need to ensure the home or building contains no hidden risks like submerged and live power lines or cords or weakened structural hazards. We remedy these situations and continue with preliminary cleaning. We want to keep the recovery costs associated with water damage low and manageable.

Responsibility toward others and our home are crucial to all in Swinomish Village. One of the rules of Stick Game is playing fairly and without malice or dishonesty. This is good advice for every aspect of life.

These steps are crucial to the rest of the restoration process and ensure that we can restore everything “Like it never even happened.”
