Flood damage involves more than simple water intrusion, encompassing issues such as mold growth from standing water, residual moisture, and compromised air quality. These conditions can affect employee performance, leading to health risks and could result in increased healthcare claims or even lawsuits due to unsafe working environments. Moreover, customers are unlikely to frequent a business with foul odors or health hazards, which could ultimately lead to the shutdown of the business.
Commercial Water Damage Evaluation Process
Upon arrival at your property, our team employs advanced equipment and techniques, similar to those used in residential services, to identify and remediate water damage
. This includes detecting moisture, extracting water, improving air circulation, drying out spaces, and removing odors. We conduct thorough inspections to assess damage and locate the water source, taking necessary steps to cease its flow. Special care is taken to address hazardous water types, such as black water, ensuring the eradication of harmful microbes. Mold assessments and treatments are conducted as needed. Items beyond repair are discarded, and heavy objects are relocated during the cleanup process and returned to their original positions afterward. Our use of deodorizing and anti-microbial agents improves the air quality in your building, ensuring a safe, fresh environment for both employees and customers.
At Terracow, we prioritize the rapid restoration of your commercial property to reduce health risks and financial impacts, ensuring your business can return to normal operations as swiftly as possible.
