Disaster Recovery Done Right: Trust Atlas for Commercial Water Damage Restoration in Greenville, TX.

When you own a business, property damage is an unfortunate occurrence that happens all too often. Property damage can be caused by any number of disasters, both natural and man-made. Most often, however, property damage happens from an excess of water. From very heavy rainstorms to broken pipes, water damage can be incredibly harmful not just for your storefront but for your customers.

When water spreads through your commercial property, it happens quickly, causing damage as it moves. At the same time, furnishings and porous materials soak up moisture.

Common Signs of Commercial Water Damage in Greenville, TX

There's no convenient time to be sidelined with water damage when it comes to your commercial property and business. Water damage to your commercial or industrial property is particularly devastating because every hour that your business is closed means lost revenue and productivity.

The good news? Atlas is here when you need us most, with a team of highly-trained technicians and unmatched water damage restoration expertise. We're ready to tackle your problem and solve it in an efficient, effective manner, so you can keep your doors open and your clients happy.

 Renovations Greenville, TX
Look for Mold

Look for Mold:

Mold can begin to grow just a day or two after water has taken hold of your business. If you see small signs of mold growth in an area where you suspect a leak, contact Atlas National Renovations ASAP to diagnose the problem.

Check Your Pipes

Check Your Pipes:

If it's safe to do so, check out the piping inside and outside your commercial property. You want to keep a keen eye out for oxidation and corrosion around pipe fixtures. While you're at it, check your water heater for rust too. Corrosion or rust is a telltale sign of a water leak.

Check for Rings

Check for Rings:

Dark spots on walls and ceilings usually indicate water damage. If you see rings around a stain, the damage is probably older. Several rings with different shades of color mean an intermittent issue, where the area has been soaked and dried several times.

Understand Your Property

Understand Your Property:

This is more of a suggestion than a sign. As the commercial property owner, you should know your building's pipe system. You should know what is old and new and what areas may be at risk for water damage. Keep an extra-close eye on areas that have a higher potential for leaks, especially during rainstorms.

Benefits of Commercial Water Damage Restoration
in Greenville, TX

When water invades your business or commercial property, you don't have much time to ponder your next course of action.

At Atlas National Renovations, our primary focus is assisting business owners and commercial property managers with water damage restoration. We've been doing it for years, and we can help you too.

Herrald-Banner Editor

Groundbreaking is expected in the spring on a 325-acre development project in south Greenville that intends to blend residential, commercial and entertainment elements with water features, green space and recreational amenities.

Billed as “the first of its kind in Greenville,” the project known as The Greenbelt is expected to provide an estimated 1,200 units of single family homes and multifamily rental housing when totally built out, according to Ted Murphy, senior vice president of Wildcatter Realty Partners. The Greenbelt will be bordered by Interstate 30, Monty Stratton Parkway, state Hwy. 34 (Wesley Street) and FM 1570.

Earlier this week, the Planning & Zoning Commission in an 8-1 vote recommended approval of a zoning change that will permit construction of one element of The Greenbelt, a 300-unit apartment complex called The Freestone at Greenville on 20-acres just southwest of Monty Stratton Parkway and Traders Road.

Some elements of the development have been approved for the necessary zoning and platting while other portions have not, he said.

Murphy said he expects ground-breaking this spring on a cottage homes component of The Greenbelt along FM 1570 just west of State Hwy. 34.

Wildcatter Realty, a Dallas-Fort Worth-based company, became involved in The Greenbelt project about three years ago, Murphy said.

Some company partners had acquired land in Greenville about six years ago with no real plans to develop it. Wildcatter eventually worked with them to acquire more acreage.

Instead of just driving through Greenville as they traveled along Interstate 30 to points east, the people from Wildcatter were introduced to the city by their partners.

They learned about L3Harris’s role as a regional jobs powerhouse (the company employs roughly 5,500 people in Greenville) as well as other characteristics of the city.

“Now we’ve become experts on Greenville,” Murphy quipped.

“For a lot of development groups in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, they really don’t know what’s going on out there,” Murphy said of Greenville. “From a development standpoint, it’s really kind of undiscovered in a lot of ways.”

The main thrust by Metroplex-based developers has been just west of Greenville in places like Royse City and Rockwall.

“We think it’s a great place to be,” Murphy said of Greenville. “It’s far enough away from the city but it’s close enough if you want to be there. It’s at the confluence of so many different roads. We really like Greenville in a big way.”

The Greenbelt has incorporated the natural features of the property into its master plan.

“Floodplane and green space, everyone traditionally looked at that as a negative. But it really is unique green space, beautiful hardwood trees and there’s an opportunity where we can really create amenities within that for hike and bike trails,” Murphy said.

In addition, the developers may partner with the city to create a disc golf park as well as other public spaces. The master plan calls for the development of water features as well as bike and hiking trails.

“We can activate that floodplane and greens space land to do something really special,” said Murphy.

As part of The Greenbelt’s commercial component, “We’re in negotiations with a hotel development group to bring a new hotel to the city,” said Murphy. He also expects a number of new restaurants to come to the city as well as entertainment venues, some that are family friendly and some that will appeal to younger people.

Although groundbreaking on some elements is expected in the spring, The Greenbelt development will unfold well into the future, said Murphy.

“It’ll keep us busy for years.”

A carbon steel distributor expected to bring 110 jobs to Greenville aims to be fully operational early next year at the city’s industrial park.

Memphis, Tenn.-based Morgan Steel recently purchased the former Woodgrain building and has commenced renovation of a 123,200-square-foot tilt wall industrial facility at 5700 Enterprise Drive in Greenville. The county and the city approved tax abatements for the company in July. The abatements exempt 50% on the increased value of real property over 10 years.

Morgan Steel is a family-owned carbon steel distributor and contract manufacturer. The company ships next day to customers throughout Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri, Louisiana and beyond. Morgan Steel services original equipment manufacturers, fabricators, agriculture, service centers, material handling and other steel product users.

“A Greenville, Texas, location enables Morgan Steel the ability to better access and serve our existing customers, as well as new customer opportunities in the Southwest regions of the United States,” said company Managing Partner Scott Morgan.

The Greenville facility, expected to be fully operational by early in the fist quarter of 2023, will create over 110 new jobs in Greenville, according to the company. The addition in Greenville will be Morgan Steel’s first manufacturing expansion outside of Memphis.

“We are keenly committed to creating a world class facility, creating many quality jobs and providing our future team members with a safe and enjoyable facility environment in which to work and thrive. We are very thankful for the guidance and cooperation of Greg Sims and John Dickson of the Greenville Board of Development, the City of Greenville, Hunt County and the countless others that assisted in making this initiative a reality” said Tanner Shiflett, the company’s managing director of operations.

“The City of Greenville welcomes a great company like Morgan Steel to our existing strong industrial base. Morgan Steel will provide great jobs for Greenville citizens as well as be a catalyst for more industrial recruitment based on their wide ‘top shelf’ customer base. Thank you Morgan Steel for choosing Greenville, Texas and we are very excited to see you grow in a really great place,” said Mayor Jerry Ransom

“Hunt County is very pleased as well with the addition of Morgan Steel to Hunt County. This is the type of company our county needs to respond to the growing Hunt County industrial base requirements of steel fabrication in our manufacturing and industrial service sector. Great jobs for Hunt County also is a big bonus. Welcome Morgan Steel, we look forward to watching you grow,” said Hunt County Judge Bobby Stovall.

“The Greenville Board of Development has been working on this project prior to COVID and is very pleased to have landed it in Greenville after competing with other states and counties in Texas. Welcome Morgan Steel, we are here to help you grow your physical plant and great new jobs for Greenville for the short and long term,” said Greenville Board of Development Chairman Shaun Franklin.

A Monday evening fire at the Chandler’s Landing Marina in Rockwall damaged boats and a portion of the marina and required multiple fire departments to contain.

A statement from the Rockwall Fire Department indicated it was notified of the fire just before 5:30 p.m. Monday. The firefighting efforts were hampered by the weather, difficulty accessing the fire at the marina, and the remote location of the available water to fight the fire. The National Weather Service indicated that at the time of the fire, Rockwall was reporting heavy fog/mist and north winds gusting at close to 30 mph.

More than 40 firefighters from five agencies battled the blaze, which resulted in damage to four boats and parts of the dock system. No firefighters or citizens were injured during the fire.

The City of Rockwall was reported to be working with the City of Dallas to prevent and limit contamination to the water in Lake Ray Hubbard. The cause of the fire remained unknown Tuesday morning and is under investigation.

The City of Dallas Fire Department, The City of Rowlett Fire Department, The City of Heath Fire Department, and the McClendon-Chisholm Fire Department responded to and assisted with the fire and other calls for service.

Few things help make the holidays brighter than viewing elaborate displays of Christmas lights.

This year, Greenville and Hunt County residents have been fortunate to be able to view several examples, many of which will be around through the end of the year.

Of course, everyone in Greenville is aware of the Christmas on Park Street events, which this year included the annual wagon rides that took passengers through the wide variety of brightly lit decorations.

One of the best presentations belonged to Tim and Aletha Kruse, who decorated their home with alternating dancing lights, which also included a shout out to the Dallas Cowboys after a big victory. The Kruse family is also responsible for the Greenville Flags project, in which hundreds of United States flags and crosses are placed in the median along the Audie Murphy overpass in downtown Greenville in time for the July 4 holiday.

Not too far away, Wesley United Methodist Church, 1200 East Joe Ramsey Boulevard in Greenville, is presenting “The Lights of Advent,” a giant display telling the story of the birth of Jesus that covers 100 feet across a two story wall. The display utilizes more than 17,000 lights and features a star-filled sky with angels and twinkling stars over the town of Bethlehem and the Nativity. A message about the Advent season will be offered at 100.1 FM. It is the third year for the church to provide the display.

GEUS, the local electric utility system, held its annual Outdoor Lighting Contest, which honored the best lighting displays at local homes and businesses.

This year’s residential winner is Johnny Honeycutt, 3104 Maple Ave., in Greenville, while the business winner was the elaborate and musical presentation from C&S Locksmith 3082 Legacy Oaks Circle in Greenville.

Health alert issued for ground beef sold at Greenville store

A public health alert has been issued for ground beef sold recently at a Greenville supermarket due to it being tested positive for E Coli.The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued the health alert this week for ground beef sold at the La Michoacana Meat Market in Greenville after a sample of the product tested positive for the presence of Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7.The FSIS announcement indicated a recall was not requested because there is no product currently available...

A public health alert has been issued for ground beef sold recently at a Greenville supermarket due to it being tested positive for E Coli.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued the health alert this week for ground beef sold at the La Michoacana Meat Market in Greenville after a sample of the product tested positive for the presence of Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7.

The FSIS announcement indicated a recall was not requested because there is no product currently available for sale to consumers.

However, the ground beef product may remain in consumers’ homes and could cause illness if eaten.

The raw ground beef was ground in store on Nov. 28. The product was packaged for consumers behind the meat counter in varying weights. The following product is subject to the public health alert :

• Varying weights of ground beef packed in butcher paper, containing “CARNE MOLIDA REGULAR/GROUND BEEF” with “Packed On” dates ranging Nov. 28 to Dec. 1, 2022, and “Sell By Dec. 1 2022” on the label.

These items were sold only in the La Michoacana Meat Market retail store, 5106 Wesley St., Greenville. The last date that the product was available for sale was Dec. 1, 2022.

The problem was discovered during routine FSIS product testing when a sample confirmed positive for the presence of E. coli O157:H7. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a healthcare provider.

E. coli O157:H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause dehydration, bloody diarrhea, and abdominal cramps 2–8 days (3–4 days, on average) after exposure to the organism. While most people recover within a week, some develop a type of kidney failure called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).

This condition can occur among persons of any age but is most common in children under 5 years old and older adults. It is marked by easy bruising, pallor, and decreased urine output. Persons who experience these symptoms should seek emergency medical care immediately.

FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

FSIS advises all consumers to safely prepare their raw meat products, including fresh and frozen, and only consume ground beef that has been cooked to a temperature of 160 F.

The only way to confirm that raw ground beef is cooked to a temperature high enough to kill harmful bacteria is to use a food thermometer that measures internal temperature, https://www.fsis.usda.gov/safetempchart.

Consumers with food safety questions can call the toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 888-MPHotline (888-674-6854) or live chat via Ask USDA from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday. Consumers can also browse food safety messages at Ask USDA or send a question via email to MPHotline@usda.gov. For consumers that need to report a problem with a meat, poultry, or egg product, the online Electronic Consumer Complaint Monitoring System can be accessed 24 hours a day at https://foodcomplaint.fsis.usda.gov/eCCF/.

Anyone visiting the W. Walworth Harrison Library in Greenville now has the chance to grab a snack outside the front door.

Or they can drop off food or other items to share with those who might need it.

The United Way of Hunt County set up its latest “Little Pantry” on Wednesday morning in front of the library. Members of the Greenville Golden K Kiwanis Club helped assemble the pantry, which was set upon a box of shelves.

Executive Director Natalie Pegg said that shelves will help provide clothing and outerwear for anyone who may be cold.

“We’ll be able to put in blankets, coats, gloves and more,” Pegg said.

The Little Pantries are similar to Little Libraries. The pantries are stocked with assorted grocery items, including ready-to-eat or easy-to-make meals that anyone can take for free. Many of the pantries, like “Little Libraries,” also offer books, games and puzzles.

In Greenville, Little Pantries are also available at Oak Creek Park, Warren Park, Pioneer Technology Arts Academy, the pavilion of the Greenville SportsPark, 6309 Buena Vista, Hunt County Shared Ministries/FISH, the Landmark on Lee Street, Crestview Christian Church, the Raffa Clinic, United Presbyterian Church. There are also boxes in Quinlan/West Tawakoni, Caddo Mills, Commerce and Wolfe City.

Installing and refilling the pantries is part of the United Way’s “Share Your Local Love” fundraising campaign.

“But more than that, it is just the right thing to do, it is what want to do,” Pegg said.

The United Way of Hunt County aims to raise $120,000 during the campaign to help support nonprofit service groups across Hunt County.

Twelve programs received $67,000 in funding in 2022, with the United Way also supporting initiatives such as Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, SingleCare, and more. United Way of Hunt County is also developing a High School Scholarship and a Story Walk program for the coming year.

Starting Jan. 4, a mobile shower trailer will be at Authentic Life Fellowship, 1914 Joe Ramsey Blvd E, Greenville, every Wednesday to offer a shower, hot meal, and hygiene products and hope to those in need.

Donations to United Way of Hunt County can be mailed to PO Box 224, Greenville TX 75401 or made online, unitedwayofhuntcounty.org.
