FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES PLEASE CALL 503-487-1501 WATER DAMAGE TECHNICIANS STANDING BY 24/7

Recently our water damage restoration efforts have included all levels of water damage in Portland Oregon. Currently we have a 4 story commercial building that flooded due to a fire sprinkler line freezing. The water damage was extensive. Four floors of condos suffered severe damage. As a restoration company, it is our responsibility to limit the damage as fast as possible. In this particuloar situation, it was quite extensive, there were 5 days of a 6 man crew in just demolition. In full, there were 8 condos effected by the water loss.

When approaching a water damage restoration project there are several factors that must be considered:

What type of water (category 1=clean water, category 2=grey water, or category 3= black water).

How much water was released in the loss? The more water dispursed in the loss, the longer the dry time.

What is the construction of the building? Materials used in construction, building design, age of costruction, etc.

Personal consideration must be given to the residents. Are there special health concerns that must be factored into the restoration plan.

Safety issues: Electrical appliances, outlets, lighting fixtures…all of these can relay electricity into the water or wet surfaces that can cause risk of electrical shock. Additionally wet surfaces may be slippery and there will be risk of a slip injury. Overhead drywall can begin to loose its strenghth as it softens from exposure to water damage, the drywall can fall. Biological growth assosciated with contaminated water can cause illness and even life threatening risks to people with compromised health conditions.

To properly assess a water damage restoration project, a company must have proper training in water damage restoration. Our company carries IICRC certifications and understands the correct procedures to follow in all water damage restoration losses.

Our extensive knowledge of the insurance industry will prepare you for the things to expect as to the overall process of filing a claim, the drying of your home or business, mitigating damages to your home or personal contents, and the restoration process.
