SERVPRO Can Quickly Remediate Water Damage at Your Business Location

Restoring a business back to its original state has its own unique requirements. Different property absorbs water and deteriorates at different rates. Since paper is one of the first items to decay, a bookstore's primary concern is not going to be the carpet or the hardwood floors. It is going to be their inventory. In this case, lowering the moisture level will be their first concern and our first task. 

It will not be an easy one in Florida, but it can be accomplished. The inspector on our SERVPRO response team will use a commercial moisture meter to measure air content levels in every corner of every room. This allows us to determine the fastest plan to regularly reduce levels and restore commercial water damage in Marco Island. Our team will pump out any standing water as quickly as possible as the inspection begins. We need to do this to provide a safe working environment for our people and the store's employees. 

Technicians will set up commercial air movers as soon as it is safe. This begins the process of replacing the damp air with dry air. This lowers the moisture level and pushes air over the inventory, drying books, and other property. 

Once the air movers are set up, the response team members will assist the store owner in moving property out of the affected area. It is essential to isolate everything that should be thrown out to determine what can be saved and returned to inventory. Our IICRC trained team members can also assist in laying out salvageable books and other property on dry surfaces to help facilitate a faster restoration. 

Dehumidifiers will be installed in corners or small rooms where air movers cannot be used effectively. These devices can draw up to 30 gallons of moisture a day from the surrounding air. 

The weather forecast is good now, but rain is always in the forecast. Regardless of what business you may own or operate, SERVPRO of Naples / Marco Island is ready to help you recover and reopen your doors. Call us at (239) 302-5700 to get started.
