What Clearwater Businesses Need from a Restoration Company When Disasters Strike

It is estimated that nearly half of businesses that close their doors after a disaster never reopen them. Much of this has to do with the time spent securing sufficient restoration professionals to help. Without a team responding quickly, situations like flooding and fire that you can see in this video get out of control in your commercial building. To avoid becoming one of the unfortunate companies that cannot overcome a devastating loss, there are reasons to choose our SERVPRO of Clearwater South / Clearwater Beach team of professionals. We are leading experts in many restoration fields, including:

• Fire damage restoration
• Water damage remediation
• Mold remediation
• Biohazard cleanup
• Flood restoration
• Deep cleaning/disinfection

The Value of Containment Practices

This video also showcases some of our SERVPRO team's measures to prevent the spread and severity of post-disaster effects like soot and smoke damage. A portion of the clip shows two of our experienced team members using 6mil plastic sheeting with non-damaging tape to section off the work area and make the restoration and recovery efforts to come more efficient and cost-effective.

Thorough Cleaning for Area Businesses

After both water and fire damage incidents, debris and residues can overwhelm the affected spaces. Surface wet cleaning practices with any of our strong and potent cleaning agents can be ideal for improving the appearance and delivering a sanitary condition. Because we strive to keep businesses going despite active cleaning and restoration, using milder smelling cleansers can prove beneficial. Botanical products are often more pleasant smelling for those in the area than stronger chemical compounds like phenolics. We carefully choose the right product for the situation to overcome soil and smells quickly.

Leading Equipment for Cleaning and Restoration

No two-loss incidents are the same for area businesses, and that is why our Green Fleet of vehicles shows up in force to help. With multiple production trucks and vans stocked with evaporative drying equipment and cleaning tools, we can begin vital mitigation efforts the first time that we arrive. The clip shows a few of our service vehicles parked outside of a building with much of their contents emptied. Inside, our team sets up a staging area next to the damaged regions of the house for fast access to the necessary equipment and prevention of cross-contamination.

Large Loss Recovery Team and Equipment

Large loss recovery is a substantial undertaking and one that we invest in to provide efficient and effective service to commercial properties impacted by water, fire, flood, and mold losses. The clip shows some of the trailered equipment available to our Clearwater teams, such as a massive desiccant dehumidifier connected to multiple points of the building with quick-connect hoses that can break down flat for easier storage and packing. We can also trailer in other large service tools and machines such as generators and air conditioning units when these are needed for the property.
