Commercial Storm Damage for Avian Glen Businesses

Gravity moves storm water from an upper floor of your Avian Glen building into the stairwell and the pipe chase, and it settles in the lowest storage room. The visible stains are at the top, and the soaked stock and equipment are at the bottom. Avian Glen Water Restoration walks the building from the point of entry down and reads every level the water touched.

Drying equipment on a commercial floor plate needs power the building may not have to spare. Avian Glen Water Restoration crews calculate the load before anything gets plugged in, pull from panels that can carry it and bring distribution boxes or generator capacity when they can't. Desiccant units handle open floor plates, and refrigerant units handle enclosed suites in your Avian Glen building.

Contents at your Avian Glen property move ahead of extraction. Stock sitting on a wet floor gets lifted onto blocking or carried to dry ground, starting with whatever absorbs water fastest, such as cardboard and paper. Equipment that can't be moved gets wrapped in plastic. Avian Glen Water Restoration lists what moved and where it went, which gives each tenant a record to attach to its own claim.

Avian Glen Water Restoration builds the mitigation package in the format commercial adjusters work in, with an itemized scope, photo documentation by location, daily moisture and humidity logs, an equipment inventory with hours and a floor plan marked with the affected areas. You and your broker decide how to use it with your carrier, and the team answers questions in writing with you copied.

If the storm hit overnight and your Avian Glen building is sitting wet, call Avian Glen Water Restoration, whatever the hour. Tell the team whether water is still coming in and who holds the keys, and the crew plans the first visit around those two answers.

Our Process

How Avian Glen Water Restoration Handles Commercial Storm Damage

We follow these steps in order on every Avian Glen job.

1

Moisture Mapping

Every affected space gets walked with thermal imaging and both penetrating and nonpenetrating meters. Readings are keyed to a floor plan by room or column line, so the scope covers where the water went and leaves dry areas alone.

2

Water Path Check

The crew traces the water from the roof breach down through the ceiling to the floors below and photographs the path. Water that backed up out of a drain tied into a sanitary line gets handled as sewage, and that call drives the protocol.

3

Slab and Dock Floor Checks

Concrete at a dock or in a warehouse holds water well after the surface dries, so the crew probes the slab at marked spots and keeps dehumidification and air movement running until the readings level off.

4

Equipment Out and Space Release

As each area reaches its dry goal, the equipment comes out of it and the space goes back to the tenant. The release date and final readings for every area go in the file.

5

Closeout File and Walkthrough

A walkthrough with the property manager closes the job, and the crew hands over one organized file with the photos, the readings, the equipment run hours and the scope. Ownership and the carrier's reviewer can read it start to finish.

Common Questions

Commercial Storm Damage FAQ

Questions Avian Glen property managers ask us about commercial storm damage restoration.

Extraction starts and somebody gets eyes on the roof. The crew pulls standing water away from electrical equipment and tenant property first, then gets a temporary dry in over the breach so the drying work isn't fighting a live leak. While that runs, a technician walks the affected spaces with thermal imaging and moisture meters and marks readings on a floor plan. You get a verbal scope before anything gets cut or hauled out, and photos of the preexisting condition go in the file that same day.
Line them up by area first. A bid that removes more ceiling or insulation than another needs readings that support it, and a bid with fewer equipment days needs a drying plan that explains how it gets there. Ask each company for its moisture map with equipment counts and a sample of its daily log. The lowest total can leave out documentation or monitoring, so compare what each total includes before comparing the numbers.
Yes. You can sign a work authorization for the emergency phase, and the crew starts the dry in, extraction and the first equipment set while you report the loss. Your policy may expect you to limit further damage, so check it or ask your broker. Avian Glen Water Restoration documents the condition before anything moves, so the record shows what the storm did and what the crew did after.
Ask who will lead the job at your building and when that person last completed water damage training. Ask whether the people handling drying and removal have been trained to work to the S500, and how they record their readings. Request the answers in writing with the scope. A company that trains its people can say so plainly, and it shows in how the job gets planned and recorded.
A second round of water resets part of the work. The crew checks the openings and the areas that were dry, then takes fresh readings. The date and the entry point of the new intrusion get recorded separately from the first. Wet material gets a new category assessment, and the equipment plan updates to match. Your broker can tell you whether the second event is handled with the original claim, so send the dated photos along.
Rain that comes in through a roof starts out clean, and a Massachusetts Department of Public Health guide lists it as Category 1. What matters next is what it ran through on the way down. Water that soaked roof insulation and ceiling tile can carry dirt and debris, and water that backed up out of a drain tied into a sanitary line gets handled as sewage. Avian Glen Water Restoration photographs the entry point and the path in your Avian Glen building, and that record sets what gets dried in place and what comes out.
Many commercial property forms exclude fungus or limit it to a small sublimit, so read the wording with your broker before assuming it's covered. Growth that follows water the policy covers is sometimes treated differently from growth that follows a long term leak. Drying the building promptly and documenting the readings gives the clearest support for the first case, and Avian Glen Water Restoration keeps those records on every storm job in Avian Glen.
Take a wide view of each wet room, then close ups of the water line on the walls and of any wet inventory with its labels visible. Photograph where the water appears to be entering, whether that's the storefront glass or the dock door. Phone photos carry a timestamp, so keep the original files untouched. The crew adds its own photos on arrival, so yours cover the first moments.
Only if nobody does the math, and doing it's part of the setup. The crew counts available circuits and panel capacity before anything gets plugged in, spreads the load across panels, and brings distribution boxes or a generator when the building can't carry what the drying needs. Equipment placement and run hours get logged by location, which serves the carrier's review and also lets your engineer see what's drawing from where. If a tenant is on separate metering, the team documents equipment time in that suite so the usage can be sorted out later.
A roofing contractor does, and Avian Glen Water Restoration coordinates with them. The emergency dry in is restoration work, and it holds the building through normal weather while the interior dries. The permanent repair or section replacement is a roofing scope, priced and warranted by the roofer, and it has to happen before interior readings can be driven to the dry standard and verified. Avian Glen Water Restoration shares the moisture readings taken through the roof assembly so the roofer knows which sections of insulation are wet and need to come out. If you don't have a roofer, the team can give you names.
