Call SERVPRO At The First Sign Of Water Damage For Fast Remediation

4/20/2022 (Permalink)

Store Owners in Chicago can call SERVPRO to Extract Water from Their Store and Leave it in Mint Condition

Water can come into your shop for many different reasons. A pipe that bursts in your shop or an adjacent storefront can be the culprit, or a leaky window allows rain to come inside and seep into your walls and carpet. Regardless of the source, controlling the damage is crucial in preventing loss of revenue.

Can't I Just Let my Dehumidifier do the Work?

Dehumidifiers greatly help in evaporating the water damage in your Chicago store, but it may not be sufficient. On the one hand, your household dehumidifier may not be strong enough to extract water at the speed necessary to avoid an escalation of damages. Along the same lines, it may not reach all the cavities in which water may collect. Failure to restore moisture levels can set the stage for complications later, including mold and other bacteria growth. When our SERVPRO team comes into your store, we bring industry-grade equipment to extract water, including the following:

• Truck-mounted pumps- we choose to use this type of equipment for large volumes of water. We can connect with municipal sewers by local rules and regulations as needed.
• Submersible pumps- this type of pump handles less volume than truck-mounted but is still a powerful extractor.
• Extractor wands- the wands help us reach corners and crevices that are otherwise out of reach for other pumps.
• Air movers also aid the evaporation process, as do dehumidifiers. Having a choice of water extraction techniques at our disposal makes the process more efficient for you, translating into mitigating the time in which closes your business to customers.

SERVPRO of Evergreen Park/South Chicago City is your ally when water comes into your commercial establishment. Contact us at (773) 337-3900 and let us show you how we can leave your shop, "Like it never even happened."
