Restoring Commercial Water Damage for Washrooms in Montrose

SERVPRO Water Mitigation Can Minimize Business Disruption
Washrooms in commercial properties are often subjected to more use than residential properties. Over time, this increased stress on the plumbing system can malfunction, especially if the property in question is not designed to cater to this usage. A burst pipe can make your workplace unsanitary and require immediate restoration to ensure that your business can continue without a hiccup.
Bathrooms with commercial water damage in Montrose often require a careful inspection to find the correct response. Small details such as whether the washroom has fitted cabinets and the level of water contamination involved can significantly influence the choice of procedure. SERVPRO technicians have extensive training working with business owners and property managers. Our approach is designed to cause the minimum disruption to your business and can often be completed on-site without a temporary closure. If we can work on-site without disrupting the company, our technicians can set up physical signage and barriers to ensure your staff or customers remain safe during the restoration. We can help with:
- HVAC inspection
- Water mitigation
- Water restoration
The most effective tool for mitigating losses is drying. Drying theory relies on heat and ventilation to get rid of moisture, reduce odor and prevent mold growth. In washrooms with cabinets, technicians may have to cut holes to allow circulation into wall cavities or behind fittings. We can use drill saws on interior walls to create openings fitted to venting equipment. Standard venting equipment includes rapid air-movers adapted with flex hose or injectidry systems. This equipment rapidly circulates air into the cavity to dry the interior and surface of the wall. Exterior walls can often be saved by drilling holes into the top of the wall to allow further circulation. Using upper drill holes can often help to salvage insulation.
- Holes are drilled to the exact requirements of the desired drying equipment.
- Often wall ventilation is drilled beneath the baseboard to minimize cosmetic damage.
- We repatch holes using similar material and repaint once the interior cavity is dry.
