Is Water Damage in Your Business an Emergency?
12/10/2020 (Permalink)
Having a water damage in your business is a very stressful situation. Many things can go through your mind, but how do you know if it is an emergency?
When it's your property under water, it is an emergency! The longer that water sits, the more possibility there is that secondary damage will occur. Water can seep into wall crevices and down through the floors below. If it is not cleaned up and dried out properly, then the potential for mold growth is high.
If you walk in and see water pouring into your business, step 1 is to find the main water shutoff, and to shut off the water.
Also be very aware of these other things that may be affected and could be a potential hazard, such as the Electricity supply, Gas supply, Water damaged electrical appliances, Contaminated water (gasoline, chemicals, etc.) or Structural damage.
