Crested Butte Retail Shops Call SERVPRO for Water Loss Recovery.

If a disaster such as a broken pipe ever takes place at your Crested Butte convenience store, it could cost you and your insurance company a lot of money. Sometimes the commercial water damage situation can be so severe that your business must close until specific problems get mitigated. Our technicians at SERVPRO know that time is money, so we respond right away and begin work immediately. We know that the quicker we can remove the moisture from the building the quicker your doors can get back open and the less chance there is of mold developing. Our team has the equipment and resources to handle even the most severe commercial water damage projects.

Once water sprays out from a crack in a pipe, it can quickly get into your building and cause problems with anything and everything it touches. Once water gets inside a structure, elevated humidity levels can make your commercial water damage project in Crested Butte more severe. Water vapor can also damage structural components that did not get wet during the leak. When items get affected by this airborne moisture, the problems are considered secondary damage.

Whenever our SERVPRO team gets called out to a restoration job, we take several steps to prevent secondary issues. We can accomplish this by drying out organic substances before mold can grow. We also monitor humidity levels inside the affected area to make sure it stays at a level conducive for rapid drying.

If the drywall inside your store gets wet, it can lose its structural integrity and fall apart. Mold can also grow on the paper backing. If moisture has made its way far up the wall from the floor, we often cut it a foot or two from the floor so that we can push air into the wall cavity. In some situations, we drill holes into the drywall and use an injection drying system to dry out the drywall and studs behind it.SERVPRO of Montrose/Telluride is an IICRC firm.
