How SERVPRO Works Alongside Your Plumber to Get You Back to Business Quickly

When water damage strikes a commercial property, time is of the essence. Whether it's a pipe burst, an appliance malfunction, or a water heater leak, any delay in addressing the issue can lead to costly downtime and further damage. The good news is that SERVPRO is here to help you mitigate the damage and restore your business to full operation—fast.

At SERVPRO®, we understand that getting your business back up and running is your top priority. That’s why we work closely with your plumber to provide comprehensive water damage restoration, from water extraction and drying to complete restoration. Together, we’ll get your business back on track with minimal interruption.

Coordinated Response with Your Plumber

A plumbing issue is often the root cause of commercial water damage, whether it’s from a pipe burst, water heater failure, or a malfunctioning appliance. While your plumber addresses the immediate problem—repairing or replacing the faulty system—SERVPRO steps in to handle the water damage mitigation.

Our team works hand-in-hand with your plumber to ensure there’s no delay in the water extraction and drying process. We communicate constantly to synchronize our efforts, so while the plumbing repairs are underway, we’re already taking action to remove water and prevent further damage to your property.

Fast Water Extraction to Prevent Further Damage

The key to reducing downtime and preventing additional damage is fast water extraction. Standing water in a commercial property can damage floors, walls, equipment, and inventory. The longer the water sits, the worse the damage becomes.

SERVPRO uses powerful pumps, vacuums, and extraction tools to quickly remove water from your property. Our industrial-grade equipment allows us to handle everything from minor leaks to large-scale flooding, ensuring that your business is protected from further damage.

Comprehensive Drying Process

After the water has been extracted, drying the affected areas is critical. Water can seep into walls, flooring, and other building materials, leading to long-term problems like mold growth, structural weakening, and damage to electrical systems if not addressed properly.

SERVPRO uses high-powered air movers, dehumidifiers, and specialized drying equipment to ensure that every area is thoroughly dried. We target hard-to-reach areas, preventing hidden moisture from causing future issues that could disrupt your business down the road.

Advanced Moisture Detection Technology

Commercial properties often have large areas where water can hide in walls, ceilings, or under flooring. SERVPRO uses advanced moisture detection tools, including infrared cameras and hygrometers, to locate hidden moisture and ensure it is properly addressed. This is crucial in preventing long-term damage that may not be immediately visible but could become costly if left untreated.

Our moisture detection technology allows us to be thorough, so you don’t have to worry about lingering moisture causing mold or structural issues after the initial restoration.

Dehumidification to Protect Your Business

Water damage doesn’t just affect surfaces—it can also impact the air quality in your building. High humidity levels caused by water damage can lead to mold growth and even damage electronics or inventory. That’s why SERVPRO incorporates commercial-grade dehumidifiers into our restoration process.

By effectively lowering the humidity in your space, we protect your property from further damage and ensure a healthier environment for employees and customers once your business reopens.

Restoration to Get You Back to Business Quickly

Once your plumber has fixed the issue and the affected areas have been dried and dehumidified, SERVPRO begins the restoration process. From repairing drywall and replacing flooring to restoring damaged furniture and equipment, we handle every aspect of getting your commercial property back to its pre-damage condition.

Our goal is to work efficiently and with minimal disruption to your business operations. We can even work after hours or in sections of your building to avoid unnecessary interruptions, allowing your business to remain functional during the restoration process when possible.

-Full Service: From water extraction to restoration, we handle every step of the recovery process, ensuring your property is fully restored and ready for business.
-Coordination with Plumbers and Insurance Companies: We work directly with your plumber and your insurance company to ensure a smooth and hassle-free process.
