Common Water Damage Problems For Dallas Offices That SERVPRO Can Fix
One of the most pressing problems for our nationwide corporate clients with water damage in their offices is minimal interference with daily operations from our crews. While some large-scale damages like floods might shut down an entire area or floor of a building at once, most of our work involves localized and minimally intrusive solutions for common water damage issues in office buildings. Here are several common issues we come across, and how we take steps to stay out of the way when we handle them.
Leaks
Leaks constitute a majority of the water damage calls we get from Dallas offices because they are both hard to predict and time-sensitive issues. SERVPRO responds Faster to Any Size Disaster, even small leaks that might seem unimportant and minimally intrusive to your daily business. However, without a fast reaction to the problem, a small leak could cause hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of damages. We come in shortly after your call to identify the source of the leak, cut it off, apply localized drying processes to the area, and clean up any visible damages we can identify. This entire process can often happen within just a few hours of your initial call.
Small Floods
A busted faucet or malfunctioning break room appliance can cause a small flood in part of the building before you have a chance to shut off the water. While these issues do typically require the help of a certified damage mitigation company like SERVPRO to stop mold growth and other complications from happening, we take care to cordon off only the affected areas while drying any remaining moisture out.
Sprinklers
Whether for a real fire or an accident, sprinklers going off in your office can sometimes cause severe damages. Depending on how long the sprinklers were activated for and what parts of the building they soaked, we may need to implement more intensive drying solutions such as heavy-duty air movers and dehumidifiers. If the damage is light, however, we may not even need to interrupt a workday to do our job.
