Removing Water Damage from Affected Areas
One of the first steps in managing fire damage for Reading businesses and offices is to clear any water damage. Suppression of active fires utilizes the sprinkler suppression system installed in the office, which can leave pools of water and considerably damp conditions throughout the damaged areas that must get removed and dried before greater threats result. Some of the equipment used for this includes:
- Weighted extractors
- Carpet wands
- Squeegee wands
- Wet vacuums
Clearing Debris and Damaged Matter
Cleaning up after a fire loss can be a considerable challenge, especially when charred remnants of building materials, furniture, and contents all stand in your way. One of the mitigative solutions that begins fire recovery is removing this debris to lessen the severity of airborne soot damage and to reduce the strength of present smoke odors.
Establishing Containment to Keep Your Business Going
Containment is vital for almost any type of damage that your business might endure. Preventing the migration of fire-loss effects can be an important strategy to keep production moving despite the needed restoration. Physical barriers with plastic sheeting can help, but we also establish perimeters with HEPA filtration equipment to keep soot, smoke, and even odors from migrating beyond the ignition point.
