Water damage can strike your commercial property at any time. Water damage can sideline your business, regardless of the damage that occurs from a major storm event or a broken water line. Every hour spent cleaning up is an hour of lost revenue and productivity. Commercial owners know that moisture is often the enemy especially when it can shut your business down. Bringing in a professional commercial water damage specialist can help to ensure there are no lingering health threats for you or your employees once the moisture is gone.
Health Hazards
The health risks of water damage begin with the flooding, whether it be from storms, sewage backup or a burst pipe may persist after the clean-up. Water intrusion into any indoor environment causes a number of primary and secondary hazards to the property. Any time significant flooding from any source—exterior or interior—affects your property, it’s a good idea to consult a restoration specialist ASAP to deal with the immediate issues, as well as, any long term health risks of home water damage that may ensue. The situation can get out of hand way too fast. The water problem is by far the most expensive problems a commercial owner can face. Contaminated water does not only create structural problems but can leave serious threats behind after it has been removed from your property.
Water Damage
Contaminated water is oftentimes filled with all sorts of deadly substances that could be chemical residues to animal feces to even parasites. Bacteria, viruses, and fungi can grow explosively in water that has been contaminated. All of this can be of a severe health risk to you, your employees and your customers. The first 24 to 48 hours are the most important to make sure the drywall, wood and carpet fibers are not susceptible to mold, salmonella, and hepatitis. If materials have been soaked they will usually have to be taken out and replaced since they can not be restored.
