Drying time after water damage in your commercial property is determined by a combination of factors including the location, duration and source of water; the types of building materials in your facility; weather conditions; and how quickly emergency services are started. Through consistent monitoring and evaluation of the drying process, our trained technicians can determine when the drying is complete. For example, carpet may feel dry to the touch, but padding and subfloors may still be wet underneath. While there are no hard and fast rules to determine how long your property will take to dry, we can tell you it may take between three and five days or more, depending on the conditions.
Our team of highly trained technicians takes a thorough and meticulous approach to cleaning and disinfecting an area after a hazardous situation. First, we isolate the affected area to prevent any potential spread of contamination. Then, our team removes all unsalvageable items and properly disposes of them according to industry standards. Next, we use specialized disinfectants and equipment to thoroughly clean all surfaces and ensure that all pathogens are eliminated. Finally, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure that the area is completely decontaminated before giving the all-clear for you to return to your home with peace of mind. Rest assured that our expertise and attention to detail will leave your home safe and free from any potential risks.
Depending on the scope of work, your belongings and contents of your home may remain on location. In this case, we will take appropriate measures to securely cover and protect contents. Any construction related dust or dirt that occurs as a result of the work, would be addressed in the post-construction cleaning. For large restoration jobs, it is advisable to move all affected contents to a secure, climate-controlled facility in order to protect them and make room for construction. Be assured that our technicians are fully trained and will treat your possessions with the utmost care. Our Automated Inventory Control System tracks the status of your belongings from move out to move back. We will work with you and your Insurance Claims Representative to manage this process efficiently.
