By Hiring a Certified Restorer Like SERVPRO to Perform Commercial Water Removal in their Palmdale Business Premises

Water seeping into your retail store can threaten your documents, inventory, telecommunication systems, and electronics. This can lead to the loss of customers and revenue. SERVPRO technicians in Palmdale can restore your retail store within a short time.

How long does a retail store owner have to close the business?

That depends on the magnitude of the damage and how fast the restoration process starts. Our team of experienced technicians can use advanced water restoration equipment and products to conduct commercial water removal in your Palmdale retail store. We can complete the work typically within a few days or less.

We take care of all damages that may encompass the building’s contents, including your products, fixtures, and the structure. We can apply speed, safety, and proficiency to get your business back to a fully operational state.

If the intensity of the damage is low, we have the equipment and expertise necessary to isolate the damaged area while your business continues to run. We can use restoration techniques that enable your employees to continue serving your customers.

Why should retail store owners rely on professionals?

Our expertise extends across a wide assortment of business types. Therefore, our staff can handle everything a business owner encounters. We offer services such as:

  • Temporary power supply resources. We can use an industrial generator to power your business and our restoration equipment.
  • Odor removal
  • Sanitization

How do restorers dry a busy retail store without causing destruction?

The restoration process may create slip, trip, and fall hazards in the affected area. That is because surfaces get slick, and power cords and equipment hose can cause your employees to slip, trip, or fall. We can brief your employees about the hazards and post warning signs.

When drying your wooden floor, we can use a portable electric heater to direct heat on specific areas. To prevent the heat from affecting your products and employees, we can contain the surface using a 6-mil plastic sheeting, tape, and tension poles. The equipment increases the evaporation rate leading to faster drying.

Since water may have seeped behind the drywall that holds your shelves, we can drill small holes to access the moisture. Our SERVPRO restorers can use structural cavity drying equipment attached to an air mover to direct airflow into confined areas without destroying the drywall.

Water seeping into your retail store can damage inventory in the stock room and products in the selling space if restoration is delayed. Contact SERVPRO of Palmdale North at (661) 526-3649 for professional restoration that can make the water loss seem, “Like it never even happened.”
