We Get You Back In Business In Clifton After A Water Loss

Commercial Water Damage In Clinton May Consist Of Wet Acoustic Ceiling Tiles
Most office complexes in Clinton contain acoustic ceilings. These tiles can get ruined easily if they get saturated, but if the commercial water damage is minor, then it is possible that they can be restored. Once moisture starts to soak into your acoustic ceiling tiles from above, the moisture can stain the tiles and then the liquid can start to drip down from them.
If the commercial water damage in your Clinton office is severe, then the tile ceilings can deteriorate and lose their structural integrity. If they get saturated, they can start to crumble, and pieces of the material can fall from the ceiling to the floor. If the tiles just slightly get wet, then it is possible to dry them out and remove the staining caused by the moisture.
Initial Inspection And Walkthrough
Once our professional SERVPRO crew arrives at your office complex, we start by inspecting your entire structure. We first remove your affected acoustic ceiling tiles so that we can find where the leak originated. If your office is on the top level, the source could be a roof leak. Or, if your office is on a lower level with other units above it, the problem could have been created by a plumbing failure in the complex above your office unit. Once we determine the source, we take steps to stop the leak.
Mitigating Wet Ceiling Tiles
After our SERVPRO technicians are confident that the leak has stopped and that your building is free of any safety hazards, we can take these next steps to restore the items in your house that the water damage contacted:
If the tiles have already begun to fall apart, we can remove each one that we know has been structurally compromised.
Once the tiles have been removed, we can use air movers to push warm, dry air up into your ceiling cavity.
The presence of wet tiles can increase the humidity in your office, but we can set up dehumidifiers to reduce humidity levels.
