What are the possible consequences of water damage in an office building?

A water intrusion incident in your office building can ruin office equipment, supplies, books, furniture, and carpets, among other items. Metal surfaces can also sustain damage. If computers get damaged, the files in them that are not backed up can get lost completely. The incident may also lead to loss of revenue if the normal operations shut down.

Water can also cause secondary damage like mold infestation and ruination of porous building material like drywall and wood. The office may also have poor indoor air quality, which can cause health issues. Our restorers can help you to prevent these and other consequences.

What does commercial water damage restoration involve?

With the decades of experience we have in the restoration industry, we have restored millions of commercial buildings to their preloss state with success. Our water damage mitigation and restoration process usually involve:

    •    Thorough inspection
    •    Water extraction
    •    Drying
    •    Deodorization
    •    Sanitization

How do you identify the areas with water?

During the restoration process, we use our advanced equipment from the beginning to leave no detail behind. We take moisture and humidity readings regularly throughout the procedure to ensure our drying process is effective. Water can get into confined areas that can be costly to repair if demolished. In such a situation, our technicians can use borescopes to check for any contamination.

Do I have to replace the soaked carpets?

If you begin the restoration process on time, we can save your carpet and pad. We can remove the carpet without damaging it using knee kickers, carpet shears, and stair tools. Removing the carpet helps us dry the area effectively. However, if the carpeting has only absorbed a small amount of water, we can dry it effectively.

We can use penetrating moisture meters to get the exact moisture readings to determine the best drying technique. For moderate moisture levels, we can use a low grain refrigerant dehumidifier to dry the affected area.

If your office building has water damage, act immediately by contacting SERVPRO of Southeast Dallas County at (972) 227-0800 to mitigate the damage, and restore the affected areas. We’re Faster to Any Size Disaster!
