Local Bank suffers water damage

12/16/2020 (Permalink)

This bank stayed open and functioning as SERVPRO extracted water and set up drying equipment.

It's in the middle of the night.  A drinking fountain on the second floor has a ruptured line.  When employees come in first thing in the morning, they are greeted by water pouring through the ceiling and onto the floor below.

That's what happened to a local bank.  They called SERVPRO Bedford Park/Burbank, and we were on site with a crew in less than an hour.

Our production manager met with the manager on site, walked through the building assessing the damage, expectations were agreed upon, and the crew was called in to begin the work.

All this, while the bank remained open, and would remain open during our remediation process.

The crew extracted the standing water, took down affected ceiling tiles, sprayed an antimicrobial (to help prevent mold growth), and set up the drying equipment.  Our crews took great care not to interfere with the bank employees as they performed their tasks.

Any time a commercial property is down, it's not making money.  That's why, at SERVPRO Bedford Park/Burbank, we make every effort to avoid or keep to a minimum business interruptions.

PROPERTY MANAGERS:  If your property has suffered a loss (fire, smoke, water, vandalism) and need a professional company to come in and clean, all the while staying open for business, call 708-430-3600 right away!
