Disaster recovery requires a vast number of resources — resources that can only be offered by a provider that is backed by a $3 billion company with a network of more than 400 locations. Not only can SRM provide you with a recovery team who can respond at a moment’s notice, but we also have the know-how to properly manage the number of resources that go with it. After all, the disaster affects not only the day-to-day business but the employees who work there too.
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 top priority is to properly and safely remove biological waste from your home while minimizing any damage. Our highly trained technicians are equipped with industry expertise, specialized products, and equipment to effectively clean and disinfect the affected area. We understand that some items may hold sentimental or monetary value, so we take extra care in evaluating each item to determine if it can be salvaged or not. We follow strict guidelines and protocols to ensure that only items that are safe for use will be deemed salvageable. Our team will communicate with you throughout the process and provide recommendations based on our findings. Rest assured that we will do everything possible to save as many items as we can during the cleanup process.
