SERVPRO Explores Practical Solutions to Water Damage in Concord
If you operate a business, water leaks can challenge you. Damage to your structures and equipment is the expected problem. However, leaks can also force unnecessary closure, halting operations. Your chosen restoration approach influences how long your Concord facility may remain closed. Professional assistance from SERVPRO can double the convenience when we remove water conveniently and keep your business running.
Keeping the doors open during water restoration at your Concord facility is not merely a preference matter. It requires a proper understanding of the risks and challenges that force closure. That way, you can tailor your intervention to address the underlying problems that result in closures.
Reasons for temporary business closure after water damage:
- Safety issues that may lead to injury
- Minimizing damage to structures and items
- Creating convenient conditions for faster restoration
Water creates safety risks in different ways, including leaving floor surfaces slick, weakening structural materials, and increasing the likelihood of electrical shorts. Since these issues can cause physical injuries or worse, limiting people’s access to the affected areas is advisable. The risks might also affect the equipment or supplies within your premises through moisture exposure. SERVPRO offers alternatives to full closure while maintaining safety and protecting your items during restoration.
Helpful safety steps:
- Erecting warning signs indicating wet floors and other hazards
- Using covers such as plastic sheets or tarps to protect valuable items
- Using ground-fault circuit interrupters when connecting equipment to power outlets
- Work crews wearing personal protective equipment
