Commercial Flood Damage Restoration In Dallas Could Require Cleaning The Walls
Everyone who lives in the Dallas region knows that storms can come in quick and hit the metro with excessive rains. When moisture starts to build up during a rainstorm, your shopping center could suffer from commercial flood damage. If there is enough water outside, water can easily find its way into your shopping center units. Whether it comes in from the ground or it enters from a leaky roof, your assets could get affected.
Moisture that causes commercial flood damage inside your Dallas shopping center can be contaminated and soiled, making it have to be treated as a class two or "grey water" scenario. If muddy water enters your building from the ground, then the contamination levels could be higher, forcing the project to get handled as a category three issue. During each case, our SERVPRO technicians can help you find the best and most cost-effective techniques to utilize when restoring.
Any water entering your shopping center's structure from the outside can be contaminated, but the water can also be very dirty. When the soiled moisture starts to soak into building materials like your floor and drywall, the wet surfaces may also get heavily soiled. When this occurs on your company's property, our SERVPRO team can clean both your floors and your walls.
During cases where your walls got soiled from the floodwater, we can implement wet wall cleaning techniques to avoid refinishing or repainting. Wet cleaning can be more effective than dry cleaning methods when dealing with soils created by muddy water. But, before we use chemicals on your walls, we first remove any excess dirt with a rag and vacuum up what fell to the floor.
The first step to wet cleaning includes applying the water-based cleaning solution with a towel. We fold the towel and use one side until it is soiled before switching to a clean section. Next, we mix a rinse solution and apply it onto the dirty surfaces with a new, clean towel. Lastly, we take a clean, dry towel and wipe off any excess moisture on the surfaces of your walls.
Problems with your shopping center after a vicious storm can seem overwhelming at first. But, if you call SERVPRO of Northwest Dallas at (214) 361-7887, we can help relieve the stress involved and work towards saving you and your insurance company money in the long run.
