Commercial Property Damage Mitigation

8/7/2023 (Permalink)

Commercial property damage can be a catastrophic event for businesses, causing disruptions to day-to-day operations, leading to financial losses, and operational challenges. Our property damage mitigation specialists step in to minimize the impact and begin the restoration process. Once we are on-site we can start the initial assessment of the affected property. Experienced mitigation teams with years of experience will inspect the entire property to determine what areas have been affected by the damage. Technicians will use moisture meters and thermal imaging to spot what building materials have been affected even if it isn’t visible to the naked eye.

Plan of Action

A production manager will go over the data to come up with a strategic plan that will tackle the affected areas head-on. Effectiveness and efficiency are important especially when tackling the issues that come with handling property damage. We will go over potential hazards and establish appropriate safety protocols, forming the foundation of an effective mitigation plan. Water extraction would be the next step that is important to get the building back to its operating condition. With the use of submersible pumps and wet vacuums, we can remove large amounts of water quickly in order to carry on with the rest of the mitigation process.

After the water has been extracted from all of the affected areas our technicians will then be able to start the drying process. We use state-of-the-art equipment to dry the rooms that have water present whether it be on the floor after extraction or moisture that has been absorbed by porous materials. Air movers and dehumidifiers are placed strategically to dry the areas affected efficiently and effectively. All of this can greatly control the moisture in the structure preventing mold spores from forming. If mold is discovered, it is addressed quickly, strict containment procedures are followed, and our professional remediation methods are employed to ensure complete eradication. Throughout the mitigation, we will monitor the moisture levels in the air and affected materials to ensure everything is completely dry by the end of the mitigation process.
