Water Damages to Your Tracy Laundromat

12/15/2017 (Permalink)

Machines break down and fail. When facing the potential of water damage at your laundromat, you should have SERVPRO's number on speed dial.

Our Technicians Remediate BOTH Small and Large Scale Commercial Water Damage Situations

Washing machines are not always the most reliable appliances. When they decide to go on the fritz, they can start to leak or pour out enormous volumes of water onto the floor. When you have a room full of washing machines, like what you will find in a Tracy laundromat, this becomes an ever-present possibility.
 
How do you prevent this kind of commercial water damage to your Tracy laundromat? While one solution could be meticulous preventative maintenance to the machines themselves, this is not always full proof either. In truth, you might not be able to keep the damage from happening at all in certain circumstances, but there are solutions for when your business is at stake.
 
When you have a machine that is broken down and allowing water onto the floors, this can be a cause to have to shut down until the problem is corrected. Linoleum or tiled floors are very slippery when they get wet, so this puts the steady flow of customers coming to clean their clothes at risk for falls and consequent injury.
 
SERVPRO professionals like ours work quickly to assess damages, as well as the source of the current problem. In many cases, issues like pooled water or lingering wetness to structural components can be remedied in little time, which can help to mitigate your loss of business and out-of-pocket expenses. Our rapid response ensures that you can reopen quickly, or in some cases, do not have to shut down at all.
 
The assessment will begin shortly after your initial call, where our SERVPRO technicians will arrive on the scene with the equipment to handle all manner of water damages. Depending on the severity, portable pumps are used to remove the pooled liquid from the floor and air movers are then implemented to dry the area completely. The problem is identified and corrected, so that further damage will not ensue.
 
Having a laundromat comes with the risks that your appliances might wear down and fail over time. When you have a considerable mess to deal with, call us at SERVPRO of Tracy to help clean it up. We can be reached anytime at (209) 834-0200.
