SERVPRO’s Water Removal Process Gets Teaneck Business Owners Back in the Game

Business people in Teaneck want to take good care of their commercial premises – especially in the case of a large mishap such as a leak; commercial property is one of its significant assets and often one of the most costly.

Teaneck business owners need water removal in a hurry in the event of a flood, leak, or any other water incident. Swift remediation means getting back to work faster. The first step in water removal is using extraction equipment to draw away standing water.

Why is extraction so important?

Moisture can do a lot of damage to business premises, including:

• Warping wood floors or beams
• Soaking drywall and causing it to collapse
• Causing rust and tarnishing on metal surfaces
• Providing a breeding ground for mold and mildew

 Are all extraction projects the same?

Not every extraction project is the same. Each incident is unique and requires an individual approach.

When we arrive on-site, we carry out a thorough assessment of your building and the water intrusion, so we can develop a water removal plan that works for you.

What equipment does SERVPRO use for extraction?

•        Free-standing extractors
•        Truck-mounted extractors
•        Carpet wands
•        Deep extraction tools

Carpet wands and deep extraction tools help us squeeze and draw moisture out of carpets and carpet pads for more thorough water removal.
