Commercial water cleanup needs to be effective. Call SERVPRO to investigate the extent of the situation and remediate the water damage.

Local Gilroy Commercial Property Owners Rely on SERVPRO for Expert Water Damage Mitigation

When commercial water damage happens in a Gilroy property, inevitably, the business owner starts calculating how much this disaster will cost in terms of:

• The business being closed during the cleanup
• Replacement of equipment 
• Repairs to the building if needed

Those reasons are just the start of why bringing in a professional water removal service to assist Gilroy commercial properties is a good idea. SERVPRO technicians have extensive training in cleanup and restoration after water damage happens in any size structure. Including the removal and safe disposal of contaminated water.

Professional Equipment Gives Professional Results

It would be impossible to give an excellent outcome to a water damage event in commercial properties by using a shop vac and standard consumer-grade fans for drying. Usually, a much more detailed approach is needed. Flood damage, in particular, can raise interior air moisture levels and cause papers and cardboard boxes to soften and sometimes lead to mold issues. SERVPRO techs take air measurements and remove articles likely to be affected by elevated interior humidity.

After the Water Cleanup

Once the water gets extracted, and the building is dried, that is not the end of the mitigation service. SERVPRO techs take air and surface readings during the drying process to ensure that drying goals get attained. Afterward, the team cleans surfaces and moves furnishings back into the same spot they were taken from during the cleanup. This ensures when the business reopens, there will be no issues finding anything. The final step is a walk-through with the client to ensure that all areas of concern have been handled to their satisfaction.

SERVPRO is ready to support local Gilroy commercial properties with any size water removal needed. The trained and certified technicians are available 24/7 to make the damage, "Like it never even happened."
