Jamestown SERVPRO Water Damage Cleanup Techs Preserve Commercial Facilities After Disaster

Water damage can impact a business when property owners least expect it. Many of these unfortunate disasters happen off the clock. A 1/8" leak in a pipe can expel as much as 250 gallons of water in a month.

Commercial water damage cleanup services from Jamestown SERVPRO professionals can stop further damage and return business facilities to a pre-disaster state. Crew members' access to a plethora of industrial-grade equipment, including portable and truck-mounted extractors, maximizes flexibility and availability for restoration tasks for commercial property owners.

Benefits of Truck Extractors Versus Portable Extractors for Commercial Water Cleanup

While both types of extractors possess pros and cons for various water damage situations, and some cases may call for both types of extraction units, SERVPRO considers a variety of factors when deciding on a primary extraction method.

• Truck-mounted units can hold dozens of gallons more wastewater than their portable counterparts. They can heat up to 220 degrees Fahrenheit for sanitation purposes. However, the mounting style limits mobility to an extent. Truck extractors also tend to clean carpet more quickly than a portable unit. They also have stronger suction capabilities.
• Portable units, while packing less power, possess a great deal more flexibility than a truck mount. While made for use at long distances, truck extractor hoses start losing suction power at approximately 150 feet, which can prove challenging for buildings with water damage on higher floors. Portable extractors also require less accommodation from a business than a truck mount. These units also allow businesses with sensitive materials on sites, such as banks or law offices, to keep their doors securely closed, which is not feasible with a truck extractor.
