Multi-Layered Efforts for Commercial Storm Damage Cleanup in Smithtown Business

Heavy rains brought commercial storm damage and a big cleanup job for SERVPRO in this Smithtown business. This type of loss event is termed “black water” as the water brings everything it encounters along the way into its final destination. This tile floor had a large amount of mud, debris, and filthy, contaminated water. SERVPRO technicians extracted the water and cleaned up the mess. When this type of water penetrates objects, such as wicking into sheetrock, the possibility of a return to a sanitary standard for reuse is non-existent and the sheetrock on one wall needed removal and disposal. Only the baseboards on the opposite wall needed removal for extraction and drying purposes.
