Bad things can happen to good people, and if your commercial property has suffered a catastrophic loss due to fire, storms, mold, or water damage, you need to repair the damage and get on with your business. The best way to handle that is to engage a professional loss restoration company.
Fire Damage
When a fire occurs, there’s damage from the flames, heat, smoke, and soot. In addition, your facility may have incurred significant damage from the water or other chemicals used by the firefighters to put out the fire. To clean up after a fire, you need a professional mediation company that will perform any or all of the following:
- Board up windows and doors
- Set up air filtration equipment
- Clean soot out of air ducts
- Remove damaged items
- Clean damaged items that are to be maintained
- Clean upholstery and carpet
- Deodorize to remove the smoky smell
Flood, Water, or Severe Storm Damage
When you experience a flood, other water damage, or a severe storm, any or all of the following services may need to be performed:
- Extraction of standing water
- Cleaning of damaged furnishings
- Decontamination of building contents
- Drying out all of the areas affected
Mold Remediation
When you have excess moisture in your facility due to flooding, rain, plumbing problems, or any other source, mold can begin to develop. If this happens, it needs to be dealt with promptly to protect your building, your equipment, and your people. The process of removing dangerous mold includes the following:
- Assessment of the severity of the problem
- Set up of air filtration equipment
- Treatment and removal of the mold from affected areas
