Water Removal in Your Minneapolis Discount Center

8/24/2018 (Permalink)

When facing water damage in your large store, SERVPRO offers remediation services plus an ERP to help prepare for any possible accidental repeat.

SERVPRO Technicians Offer Drying Out Services Regardless of the Size of Your Business

Minneapolis has many options for consumers seeking quality products at a reasonable price. National and local chains compete, and the customer wins. The large warehouse-type stores are just as vulnerable as a smaller store boutique when suffering water damage and flooding if plumbing fails or torrential rains overwhelm a flat roof’s drainage system. We have the crews and equipment to respond to a significant water loss.

When water pours through your discount center, you need fast, professional water removal services in Minneapolis. Even with much of the merchandise up off the floor on steel shelving or pallets, the water must be evacuated for the safety of your staff and your customers. With floors that extend hundreds of thousands of square feet, the removal task is best left to professionals.

SERVPRO is a local business with a national network to fall back upon if the scale of a job requires supplemental equipment and technicians. Sizeable commercial water losses need just as swift a resolution as those affecting a smaller shop or office. Water that lingers in the property for more than 24 or 48 hours exposes your business to the risk of microbial infestation that might even damage your inventory.

Our commercial loss team works with you to devise a plan where at least a portion of your business remains open during the restoration. SERVPRO understands how devastating closing your doors can be, particularly in the face of the robust competition other Twin City area companies engage in to tempt your customers.  

The water removal begins with pumps, moving vast amounts of water quickly out of all areas of your store. As the water level dips below 2 inches, technicians switch out pumps for extractors. Your flooring choice of poured concrete seems impervious to water, but it is a porous material that benefits from rapid water extraction. The floor edges get targeted attention to prevent water from wicking up the drywall or settling in the cells of cinder block construction.

This water emergency might lead to your development of an Emergency Ready Plan and Profile (ERP) with SERVPRO in anticipation of future crises. The ERP allows us to collaborate in devising a concise plan to help both our crews and you and your staff to plan for another loss.

SERVPRO of Minnetonka is ready for your water removal challenge, regardless of the extent of the damage. Call us at (952) 473-4837 to get your discount center back on track.
