SERVPRO is here when water hits your commercial building

When the main pipe breaks in your business, the investment you have made in inventory is at certain risk of severe water damage. The arrival of SERVPRO water mitigation specialists after that is your best bet, helping your and your staff sort out the mess.

Commercial water damage could be the end of your Orland Park business if we are not called out quickly to assist. Chances are that the business's square footage will not incur much damage, its walls and floors typically composed of cinder block or concrete. Using professional-strength pumps and extractors, our team will remove as much water as possible from the area and the furnishings. If your business is carpeted, we will assess whether that floor covering can be cleaned and dried. Padding often must be replaced, but carpets can be surprisingly resilient. If area rugs were on display, we may take some of them off-site to thoroughly dry them.

SERVPRO will work closely with you and your insurance company to determine what can be salvaged. Our staff has been educated in advanced upholstery drying, using air movers and dehumidifiers to complete the job. If anything just got wet during the flooding, the water damage may be reversible. It is crucial that the restoration efforts start immediately after the water damages, as mold can begin within 48 hours. Great care must be taken not to sell items that have the potential to harbor fungi or other hazardous substances.

SERVPRO of Orland Park is ready to assist if your business suffers water damage. We have the experience, equipment, and the expertise to get you back to “Like it never even happened.”
