Who we help

Commercial Properties We Restore

Restaurants

In California, a food facility with sewage backing up inside has to stop food service until the area is cleaned, sanitized and cleared by the county's environmental health department.

Retail stores and shopping centers

Leaks over sales floors and stockrooms put inventory, fixtures and flooring at risk, often in a space shared with neighboring tenants.

Offices and medical offices

Water under carpet tile, in wall cavities and around desks, cabling and equipment, with work planned around patients and staff.

Restaurants and food service

Dishwasher, ice machine, supply line and floor drain failures, often with gray water or sewage that has to be cleaned and sanitized.

Multi-tenant buildings and HOAs

Water that crosses from one unit or suite into the next, with each affected unit documented for owners, tenants and property managers.

Warehouses and industrial spaces

Large open areas with stored goods, racking and equipment that need to be moved, protected or dried.

Common causes

Common Causes of Commercial Water Damage

Fire sprinkler discharge

A broken or activated sprinkler head releases a large amount of water in minutes, often across several rooms or suites.

Supply lines and restrooms

Failed supply lines, toilets and water heaters in restrooms and break rooms, often found only when staff arrive in the morning.

Roof leaks

Rain coming through flat roofs and around rooftop equipment onto ceiling tiles, inventory and offices below.

Drain and sewer backups

Floor drains and restroom lines that back up into kitchens, restrooms and ground-floor suites.

Our process

How We Restore Commercial Water Damage

Assess and plan (on arrival)

The source is found, the water category is identified (clean water, gray water or black water, Category 1 to 3), and the affected suites or units are mapped with moisture meters and thermal imaging. The work plan is set around your hours.

Extract and protect (same visit)

Standing water is removed with truck-mounted and portable extractors, inventory, furniture and equipment are moved or blocked up (content manipulation), and containment is set up to keep the work separate from the rest of the building.

Dry around operations (3 to 5 days)

Air movers and LGR or desiccant dehumidifiers dry the structure, with daily moisture readings until each material reaches its drying goal. Equipment is placed and scheduled so open areas stay usable.

Restore and document (after drying)

Drywall, ceiling tiles, flooring and finishes are replaced, and the scope, photos and drying logs are delivered for your insurer's adjuster and your landlord.

Less downtime

Keeping Your Business Open

Containment

Plastic barriers and air scrubbers separate the work area, so the rest of the store, office or building can stay open where it is safe.

After-hours work

Extraction, demolition and the loudest work can be scheduled for nights and weekends.

Equipment placement

Air movers and dehumidifiers are placed away from entrances and walkways, with cords and hoses kept out of foot traffic.

Clear communication

One point of contact keeps the owner, tenants and property manager updated on what is wet, what is being done and when each area can reopen.

Good to know

Insurance, Cost and Documentation

Insurance and lost income

Commercial property policies usually cover sudden water damage such as a burst pipe or sprinkler discharge. Business income coverage, often part of a business owner’s policy, can pay for lost income and ongoing expenses while the space is closed for covered repairs, usually after a waiting period of 24 to 72 hours.

Flooding from outside is usually excluded and needs separate flood insurance.

Cost and documentation

Cost depends on the size of the affected area, the water category, how much material has to be removed and how many days drying takes. You get a written scope before work begins, with photos, moisture logs and a per-unit breakdown for multi-tenant buildings.

Questions answered

Commercial Water Damage FAQs

The questions we hear most about commercial water damage.

Can you work after hours?

Yes. Extraction, demolition and other loud work can be scheduled for nights and weekends so you can stay open during business hours.

Can we stay open while the building dries?

Often, yes. The affected area is sealed off with containment, and equipment is placed away from customers and staff. Areas with sewage or safety hazards stay closed until they are cleaned.

Do you work with property managers and landlords?

Yes. Access is coordinated with the property manager, and each affected unit or suite is documented separately for the owner, tenants and their insurers.

Does insurance cover lost income while we're closed?

It can, if your policy includes business income coverage and the damage is from a covered cause. Most policies have a waiting period before it starts. Check with your agent.

What happens if sewage backs up in a restaurant?

Food service has to stop. The sewage is removed, the area is cleaned and sanitized, and the county environmental health department clears the facility before it reopens.

How much does commercial water damage restoration cost?

It depends on the size of the area, the water category, what has to be removed and how long drying takes. You get a written scope before work starts.
