Restoring Post-Storm Flooding in Pensacola Hair Salon
Flooding in your Pensacola salon can have disastrous effects on the materials that become exposed to the migrating water. While there are immediate concerns that might exist, including temporarily repairing roof damages or structural vulnerabilities, standing water against any surface can eventually do it harm. Vinyl tiles, for example, might not be immediately susceptible to water absorption but can warp and distort after prolonged exposure.
Choosing vinyl tile flooring in your salon was a wise choice for its initial surface water resistance, but the material can succumb to flood damage in your Pensacola business. Our SERVPRO professionals must prioritize mitigation tactics like extraction and cleanup to help protect this exposed flooring and the mounted seats in the respective stations for the stylists.
Extraction must be the first step for any standing water that exists on the shop floor of your salon. The longer direct exposure persists, the more irreparable damage it can cause. While vinyl tiles offer a tight seal from one installed unit to the next, the flooring is not impenetrable when owners do not immediately address exposure concerns. Because of its long discharge lines and consistent draw of standing water, our SERVPRO team relies on equipment like our electric sump pumps to begin reducing the water level in the affected area of the shop.
Once the extraction completes, our technicians can get a look at the flood damage to the flooring materials to determine the likelihood of successful restoration. When drying is possible, namely, when no warping or swelling exists around the tile seams, we can lay out drying mats and deploy air movers to remove trapped moisture from the individual tiles and plywood subflooring. If controlled demolition is necessary, we have an in-house team of experienced general contractors to help get you back in business as promptly as possible.
From the damage that could result to mounted chairs in the stylist stations to the installed vinyl tile flooring on the main shop floor and waiting area, flooding can be a devastating force. Our SERVPRO of West Pensacola professionals have experience and equipment to make these disasters “Like it never even happened.” Give us a call today at (850) 469-1160.
