Flat Roof Water Damage Is Common in Palm Coast Commercial Buildings--Call SERVPRO

Palm Coast Commercial Water Damage Calls for Quick Restoration from SERVPRO

Commercial water damage in Palm Coast often originates from a roof leak. A flat roof can cause, in a large commercial warehouse or fabricating plant, water damage from non-containment of pooling rainwater. This covering protects the elements from gaining entrance from wind, rain, fire, and heat. Fortunately, in our climate, hail, ice, and snow are not destructive forces that can usually close a business. Of course, hurricanes and even tornadoes can be factors leading to business failures. This first line of defense, like our skin, protects the assets of your business while offering safety to employees, and customers. The roof is a very vulnerable part of the structure of a building because it is exposed to weather that can contribute to its the breakdown and deterioration.
 
A roof's job is to protect the building and its contents. Therefore, business owners would do well to incorporate a regular program that involves the inspection, maintenance and repair of the roof as needed. This will prolong the utility of the roof and ensure that it is protecting the business from any wind and water damage.
 
But roof problems do occur. And it is best to address roof issues before it is too late. There may be signs of serious roof problems that are clearly indicated inside the building. The presence of water stains on a ceiling could indicate the existence of a roof leak that is resulting in the penetration of water. It may also be the result of a leaking pipe or HVAC air handler. SERVPRO can quickly find the source of the water intrusion, stop it, and commence with the water extraction and drying and cleaning processes. Lost productivity, sales or service is lost revenue. Our skilled IICRC trained technicians can efficiently reopen your doors for business.
 
The appearance of mold indicates that the interior moisture levels are too high. This may be an indication that there is a problem with the roof.  Regardless, this is an issue that should immediately be addressed. Often, mold remediation goes hand in hand with water damage restoration. Professional assistance mitigates downtime and the impact of potentially closing for repairs. A SERVPRO assessment and inspection are wise first steps to lessen adverse effects.
