Wood flooring in your commercial property that has been damaged by water must be continually evaluated by qualified technicians during the drying process. We use professional-grade drying systems and dehumidifiers to create the ideal environment for wood floors to dry efficiently, and optimally to resume their original shape. Depending on the density of hardwood flooring and the type of finishes used, complete drying may take up to three weeks or longer. If you file a claim, your insurance adjuster will work with you to make the final decision as to whether the floors in your property will need to be refinished or replaced.
Using professional biohazard cleanup services, like ServiceMaster Restore, is crucial to properly and safely handle hazardous materials. Our highly trained technicians have the expertise, specialized products and equipment necessary to effectively remove biological waste and disinfect pathogens. Attempting to clean up biohazards on your own can be dangerous and may result in spreading infectious contamination to other areas of your home. We isolate the affected area, remove any unsalvageable items, and thoroughly clean and disinfect to ensure a safe living environment for you and your family.
There may be some damage to your home and property that existed prior to your loss. Therefore, these damages will not be included in the scope of repairs. We are responsible for returning your home to how it was before the damage occurred, in other words, to its pre-loss condition, using materials of like-kind and quality. At your request, we will provide you with an estimate for any additional construction projects you may wish undertaken by our team. This additional work is termed, “non-insured work.”
