Trust SERVPRO for Commercial Fire Restoration in Jamestown
Running a business like a convenience store is daunting because of the many challenges, including managing employees and offering excellent customer service. The most overwhelming aspect of running such a business is dealing with an unexpected event like fire damage.
A fire can be devastating to your business since it poses risks like charring, smoke, water, and odor damage. Fortunately, an experienced firm like SERVPRO can perform commercial fire restoration in your Jamestown convenience store. We offer a fast response and quick repair and can preserve the merchandise required for the business to continue.
In a convenience store, the items that smoke touches can be rendered unsellable. The odor from the fire can also ruin merchandise. Our SERVPRO team can take these steps to restore your commercial property:
- Assessment and inspection
- Taking the necessary precautions
- Water extraction and drying
- Cleanup
- Reconstruction
Assessment and Inspection
We can assess and inspect the building. Our SERVPRO restorers can test all surfaces showing evidence of smoke residues. We can test vertical surfaces like walls, windows, doors, and door trim because smoke residues stick to such surfaces in many fire situations. We also consider if the smoke penetrated behind materials.
Taking the Necessary Precautions
We can install a temporary fence around your convenience store to safeguard the building from vandalism, looting, and theft. Our SERVPRO crew can also use roof tarps if necessary. This can prevent the existing damage from worsening.
Water Extraction and Drying
Water damage resulting from the firefighting efforts is the other issue you must handle. We can use pumps to remove all excess water from your business premises. We can then dry the building using axial air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers.
Cleanup
Soot is corrosive and can cause etching and tarnishing of the affected materials and objects. The cleanup process involves removing the ruined items and cleaning affected surfaces like floors, ceilings, and walls to eliminate soot.
Reconstruction
This can involve restoring damaged structures and contents or reconstructing the entire building.
