Avoid the Need to Hire Additional Contractors by Working with SERVPRO for Commercial Fire Damage Cleanup in Ft Lauderdale
A fire disaster in your Ft Lauderdale warehouse involves dozens of phases, steps, and tasks to bring your property back to preloss condition. Finding a firm that can handle all anticipated and unexpected issues is a real bonus for a business dealing with a fire's aftermath. Streamlining the cleanup after a fire has many benefits, not the least of which is ensuring your business is back to full operation as quickly as possible.
What Types of Fire Cleanup Tasks Benefit from a Contractor's License?
Water removal is a priority during Ft Lauderdale fire damage cleanup. The sprinkler system and firefighters use water as an extinguisher as the fire roars through your commercial building. If the water is not extracted fast and the affected spaces dried out, building materials suffer from a double corrosion load from both fire residues and moisture. Excess water also increases safety risks -- slips, trips, falls, electric shock, and fluid-borne contaminants. Water can hide from a casual inspection but must be found and released. Commercial contractors can help with structural collapse risks from trapped water and heavy charring by:
- Adding building supports to prevent ceilings and walls from falling or crumbling
- Drilling and sawing holes to release water from behind walls and built-in fixtures
- Punching weep holes in sagging ceilings
- Cutting walls between studs to release the firefighting water
- Performing controlled demolition of badly burned building materials
