SERVPRO Technicians Secure the Structure Before Beginning Restoration Work
As a Miami resident and shop owner, you understand the importance of preparing for hurricanes and floods. You also know that you need to address damage quickly afterward to limit the subsequent loss to your business. Florida's low sea level and propensity for tropical and intense summer storms means that you should have an arrangement in place in case an unexpected flood hits your business. Part of that plan involves closing off windows and doors for security purposes while you put your business back together.
What Should I Do with My Merchandise?
SERVPRO Helps Secure Your Valuable Merchandise with the Help
Flood damage in your South Miami shop means that you have to care for your merchandise to ensure that it is okay after the flood. Our restoration specialists may take damaged merchandise offsite to secure, clean, and dry the items. They keep an inventory throughout the process so that you have clear documentation to assist in insurance claims. You can move unaffected merchandise to a safe location while your shop undergoes the restoration process to ensure that the added humidity in the air does not affect it.
What Are Some of the Things Technicians Do to Secure My Store and Ensure Safety While They Work on It?
- They check for hazards and turn off the power if needed.
- They remove standing water with extraction equipment to remove contaminants and slip and fall hazards.
- They treat surfaces by cleaning them and applying antimicrobials to limit mold growth.
