Flood Damage to Your Franklin Shop--Call SERVPRO for Certified Service

Mitigating the Effects of Commercial Flood Damage in a Franklin Auto Repair Shops

When a flood strikes your auto repair shop, it is likely to have severe consequences because it can soil or cause additional damages that the vehicles brought in for repairs did not have when left by the owners. The response you mount determines whether you only deal with a minor setback or face major issues including loss of regular customers or even lawsuits. We offer professional flood mitigation services that can help your Franklin auto repair shop resume normal operations faster.
 
Commercial flood damage in Franklin auto repair shops affects vehicles since most are in varying degrees of disassembly, which allows water to access the interiors easily. Parts such as seats removed from the vehicles and placed on the floor or other work surfaces have a higher risk of damage from the floodwaters. Our SERVPRO technicians take various approaches to limit the effects of water. We can extract the standing water from the premises fast using advanced equipment like submersible pumps and water extractors. We can also move items in case fast extraction is not viable.
 
Car interiors have many porous materials as part of the upholstery or carpeting, and therefore they absorb water readily. Flooding also soils such interiors heavily. Our SERVPRO IICRC certified technicians apply different skills to sanitize the affected areas. We use extractors to suck water from all wet areas. For fabric upholstery such as polyester and nylon, we combine professional detergents, hot water, and steam cleaning to sanitize them. For leather upholstery, we take care not to strip off its natural oils, which can cause drying and cracks.
 
Mitigating the effects of floods in auto repair shops may involve moving car parts from shelves and other areas. Since most of these items are expensive, it is essential to ensure they can be traced after the exercise. Our SERVPRO technicians rely on electronic CCIS, Content Claim Inventory Service, which helps create proper records of each item and its original location in the shop. This is an extreme measure, especially if we work hard to decrease the water vapor inside the shop through aggressive dehumidification. This can also help to protect sensitive electronic components, the various brains built into modern day vehicles.
