Electrical Fire Contributes to Business Losses and Interruption

The SERVPRO of Jacksonville Beach/Ponte Vedra's restoration team responded to a recent fire loss at a local medical laboratory. Our after-hours technicians arrived on-site in the middle of the night to extract the water left behind by JFRD and the fire suppression system, begin to secure the building by boarding up, and help the business owner make sense of the tragedy.

When you manage and own over 20,000 square feet of expensive and sensitive lab equipment, it can be overwhelming knowing where to start cleaning, mitigation, and then organizing what to do next. From the first steps of securing the structure with extraction and board-up, generator set up and supplemental power, desiccant dehumidifier operation, drying equipment, demolition, and itemized inventory, our team was able to manage all of these different aspects of the loss. 

Our SERVPRO technicians were able to inventory, clean, and process sensitive specialty medical equipment that was an integral part of this business' operations.

We managed the relationship between the different equipment leasing and insurance companies, the equipment engineering subcontractors, the Laboratory's insurance company, the building owner's insurance company, and the labor teams.

When your business or commercial property is affected by fire damage you shouldn't have to worry about hiring and managing all of these different companies and subcontractors. That's why you have insurance. As a business owner or manager, you are going to be overwhelmed by managing employees and relocating them, and letting clients know about possible losses or delays. If necessary, SERVPRO can even help you find temporary office space.

SERVPRO of Jacksonville Beach/Ponte Vedra can handle any type and any scale of commercial fire damage remediation and cleaning, 904-246-6118.
