Commercial Loss - Sewage Backup

9/7/2023 (Permalink)

Just (2) weeks ago we had several days of heavy storms reported to drop anywhere from 5 to 7 inches of rain here in the Greater Metro Detroit area and  large portions of Michigan and Ohio experienced major flooding. As a result, a lot of people experienced sewage backups. Needless to say, SERVPRO® franchises, were very busy helping put things right.

Here at SERVPRO of Oak Park/ Ferndale, it was no different. In addition, Two Commercial properties contacted us for sewage backups of their own. We responded as we always do…quickly. At the 1st one, the contact was on vacation when he got the news. We were at his  location within hours to assess their situation, place equipment and start the clean up. He came back the next day and was impressed to see how much work had already been done. He was very grateful for the quick response time.

The 2nd commercial property was a 25,000 square foot municipal recreation facility. We received their call on Monday of the Labor Day Holiday. Our crews came in on their day off and started extracting the 4” of water and sewage to get the clean up moving in the right direction. 

The potential loss at a commercial building can be an intimidating prospect to handle. Be it from water, mold, fire/smoke or a storm, the faster you address the situation, the faster you can gain control and get back to doing business  as usual.

 That's why we are available 24/7 all year round. Any time of the day or night, your call will be answered by one or our dedicated and caring staff to start the process of getting the right people and equipment in place. This will help reduce the time it takes to get your place of business back to its preloss condition and can help possibly save any further damage to your contents or structure.
