Water damage to a business office.

Water Damage to Business Specific Gear Gets Help from SERVPRO

Document Restoration is a specialty of ours! Running a small business takes time and investment. As a Business, you know the effort and resources needed to run a business. That is why something like a ruptured main water line is such a huge worry. Your company itself suffers water damage along with your digital media, computers and monitors, possible marketing equipment and much more. There is also the worry of losing customers and therefore money during the cleanup operation, and replacing office materials, desks and printing equipment is not cheap. 
 
It is easy to see why fast action is vital after a burst water pipe causes flood damage to your Worcester. SERVPRO is on hand to get you open for business again as soon as possible - We’re faster to any Size disaster. We understand that drying out a business office challenges. 
 
One of the major concerns for a business office is damage to equipment such as data entry information, printers, and computers. Our IICRC-certified technicians assess the situation quickly and remove equipment as necessary or cover it with plastic. We can work together with specialist electronics contractors to determine the level of damage and the potential for restoration. Everything is kept at the correct temperature to stop it dropping to the dew point which is where condensation forms and further damage can occur. 
 
As well as electronic equipment there is the issue of specific items need special restoration. To give them the best chance of surviving until that can be undertaken, it is vital to lower humidity as quickly as possible. Our professional teams calculate the number of dehumidifiers needed and the best placement. Creating a smaller chamber speeds up the drying process. Our technicians use polyethylene to set up partitions and seal off doors and windows, thus creating drying chambers for your media and equipment. 
 
SERVPRO teams are also trained to prevent further harm to flood damaged books and documents. Although the damage cannot be reversed, swift transferal to a freezer facility can prevent damage from getting worse. This buys us time to decide on the best drying methods and discuss the options with you. We keep a log of every item removed and stored, so nothing gets lots. This process, called lyophilization, can be a complicated but very successful methodology.
 
Our aim is to salvage as much as can be saved and get your premises and equipment dried thoroughly so you can get back to business as quickly as possible.
