Remediating Commercial Water Damage in Groveland
10/23/2017 (Permalink)
Depend on SERVPRO to Get Your Business Open in Record Time After an Emergency
Groveland is one of the most picturesque communities in Minnesota. The township has carefully planned our growth for over a century and attracts new business interests each year. Unfortunately, it cannot plan for broken water heaters or split pipes.
Customers who wait in line for a bank teller do not care about commercial water damage in their Groveland branch office. Fortunately, SERVPRO has the equipment, training, and experience to eliminate the effects of a burst pipe or other plumbing failure and reopen the doors. Often, we can do this in a single day.
We can accomplish this since businesses are often more straightforward to clean. Commercial carpets do not have a pad underneath and rest on a concrete floor. The rooms and customer service areas are larger and more accessible to dry out.
SERVPRO technicians begin by setting up dehumidifiers to remove excess moisture from the air. They also place units at places where water has soaked into walls and can be drawn out. Each machine can remove over 25 gallons per day.
To augment these devices, we also open every entrance and exit available and set up fans to bring in warmer, dry air from the outside to replace the colder, damp air trapped inside. To dry the structure, technicians also install air movers along affected walls. We direct these machines to blow heated air through walls and even ceilings to speed up drying them.
Next, technicians use extraction wands to remove water trapped in the carpets. Depending on the size of the area, we use hand-held wands, similar to water-vacs used in a garage or a device that a team member stands on top of as it rides across the room. With the larger machine, we can extract several large rooms in just a matter of hours.
Flooding does not mean shutting down a business for days or even weeks. When called in quickly enough, SERVPRO of Minnetonka can help you reopen your doors the very next day. If you need our services, call today at (952) 473-4837.
