Water Removal and Cleanup for Your Vincent Food Store

Food stores offer customers throughout the Vincent area ingredients, snacks, meals, and all manner of appetite sating items. While you might expect many customers from the time you open through the time you close, natural disasters like flooding can force you to close your doors to these customers until the restoration of your building completes. With so many depending on your business to be open, it is critical to work fast to get the right professionals to your store with the ability to help you recover the damage quickly.

Flood removal for the damage and higher volumes of water that affects your Vincent food store might seem unnecessary; this is not the case. Our SERVPRO Franchise professionals have the training and expertise to determine the full scope of the damage quickly so that you are not only partially cleaning and drying up damage.  Leaving moisture and dampness from flooding results in mold growth, and this can result in health effects for any humans or pets exposed to an active colony.

One of the primary concerns that a food store owner should have is the stock in the building. Investments get made into every item that ends up on the shelves and other areas of the store, meaning that prolonged flood damages can adversely affect these items. The items do not even need to fully come into contact with the water to become exposed to moisture and dampness that could render it ruined.

The SERVPRO Franchise Professionals dispatched to the store arrive with our advanced equipment that can quickly extract excess water from the damaged areas of the store. Once this pooling water has gotten removed, our team can focus their efforts on trying to locate the ideal locations to begin setting up our efficient drying tools like air movers, dehumidifiers, and similar equipment.

While there are undoubtedly some concerns when your food store gets flooded unexpectedly, one of the first of these is staying safe and protecting your investment in your store. Give our SERVPRO of Irwindale / Baldwin Park team a call immediately to help begin mitigating your loss following a flood at (626) 337-3374.
