What is that horrible smell!?” Those were the first words that entered my mind as I walked into a local medical facility in the Mendocino County area of California. One of our major hospital management clients called us with reports of a serious odor dilemma in one of their primary medical buildings. 

In the late hours of July 31, 2013 a fire started in the northwest corner of the 25,000-square-foot field house gymnasium at Waukesha North High School and left the 40-year-old Milwaukee-area school devastated with fire, smoke and soot damage.

It was October 3, 2013 when Rainbow International of Sioux Falls, S.D., arrived at a twin home in the city to assess a hoarding job they had been contacted about.

The early morning hours of April 24, 2013 started as they normally do at the Cabela’s store in Dundee, MI, as night employees restocked shelves and carried out other duties in the closed 225,000 square foot facility.

It started with a roof drain leak.

“Most hoarders are clean, formal, very pleasant people. You would never guess, if you met them in your office, that their house was packed to the gills.”

Parkside Bible Church of Watertown, New York is a massive building that serves approximately 450 parishioners every week.

It all started with a leaky air conditioner.

The polar vortex brought dangerously cold temperatures, large amounts of snowfall and lots of frozen and broken pipes, especially in unsuspecting areas of the country.
