Commercial Flood Damage Manayunk – Balancing Equipment Needs
Flood damage to a building can happen at any time from many different sources. Storms cause flooding, and high winds punch holes in roofs, water mains break and sewers back up. Any of these events can cause a lot of flood damage and place a commercial enterprise in jeopardy. Customers and employees cannot enter the building, and revenue drops to zero. Recovery from these situations quickly is a top priority for business owners.
SERVPRO specializes in flood damage events to commercial properties in the Manayunk and surrounding area. We understand how important it is to recover quickly. Setting up staging areas and temporary operations to keep the business running is all part of the recovery process. One area that many clients may not appreciate is the deployment of staff and equipment to maximize efficiency and minimize recovery time.
Balance Air Movers and Dehumidifiers
Flood damage may introduce a variety of contaminants to the property. Removing contaminants and cleaning everything before drying begins is the priority. Our crew chief can determine the number of technicians required, the equipment needed for demolition and of course temporary measures such as tarps and board up of windows. Once this phase is complete, it is time to dry the building before reconstruction can begin.
It is essential to arrange air movers in the right location to pick up moisture from surrounding flooring and structures. Dehumidifiers must be positioned to remove moisture from the air and gradually dry the air and surrounding structure. Placing too many air movers in a building may cause moisture to be distributed to non-affected areas of the building. Not enough dehumidifiers can lengthen the time it takes to dry everything.
Air movers must be placed in locations to cause dry air to absorb moisture and move it past dehumidifiers or to outside locations. SERVPRO is very familiar with these techniques and has the experience to dry buildings and structures as fast as possible. We aim to have you back in your commercial space as fast as possible, "Like it never even happened."
