Hiring SERVPRO Restorers is a Great Way to Deal With Commercial Flood Damage in Santa Clarita
When flooding takes place, it is not uncommon for businesses in the path of the floods to be affected. Business owners can feel the ripple effects from interruption of operations after incurring flood damage for a long time. The loss incurred depends on the kind of business involved. For instance, a car dealership hit by flooding can see a huge percentage of its cars ruined, leaving them in an unsellable condition or having to be scrapped as salvage titles.
The more common effects of commercial flood damage in a Santa Clarita car dealership include the loss of valuable documents and stored data in water-damaged computers. After such an incident, you may have to shut doors as the repairs occur, meaning several days of lost revenue. At SERVPRO, we are ready to help you soon after receiving your call. Our technicians can reduce interruptions to your business. We can help you to perform a wide range of commercial flood damage repairs and other relevant services such as:
- Floodwater removal
- Removal and disposal of unsalvageable items
- Dry out
- Disinfection and deodorization
- Reconstruction
Floodwater causes more destruction the longer it remains in affected areas. Our SERVPRO water restoration technicians (WRT) can use portable pumps to remove the floodwaters quickly. Most of the pumps used in the restoration industry are centrifugal pumps. These pumps convert rational energy from motors into energy to move fluids. Examples include high-pressure pumps, self-priming trash pumps, and electric submersible pumps.
We also remove and discard items that are too damaged to restore. This may include furniture, drywall, and inventory. Our SERVPRO team also uses EPA-registered broad-spectrum disinfectants to control microbial growth. We apply them to all contaminated surfaces and materials.
Our SERVPRO team also takes time to dry affected surfaces using air moving and dehumidifying equipment. We monitor the drying process to ensure that we meet drying goals.
