Commercial Flood Damage Pearl River – Open for Business after the Flood

When storms bring torrential downpours, there is often flooding of streets, homes and commercial buildings. The recent storm flooded our client's business office during the night and prevented him from opening his shop the next day. Many residents and businesses were recovering from flooding, however for a business to not open means no customers and no revenue. His office sustained almost 2 inches of water throughout most of the building. Fortunately, all of his files, computers, and other essential items were above the waterline.

SERVPRO of Pearl River responded to this commercial flood damage event immediately. We understand how important it is for a business to be open and providing customer service. Our team, along with the client's employees, quickly began removing the computers, files, and other essential items to a dry area. The local area Wi-Fi network was still working, providing data communications throughout the building. The client was able to re-connect their computers and re-routed voice calls to cell phones. Although temporary, the office was operational within hours taking calls and placing orders.

SERVPRO technicians removed all of the mud and debris that had penetrated the office area. Hard surfaces were cleaned and dried. Desks and chairs were thoroughly cleaned and moved to a dry area. We also removed the carpet and underpad. The cement floor was steam cleaned to remove all remaining water, dirt, and contamination from the flood.

Our team checked the walls for high moisture levels. After a thorough cleaning and drying the office was ready for new carpeting along with electrical circuit installation since all connections and wiring had been contaminated. The business client appreciated how quickly the office was up and running even temporarily! Especially with the help of our team members and his employees. The client only lost a few hours of office time due to the flooding. The customer recovered from the flood damage quickly and moved back into their permanent office within a few weeks.
