Large Black Water Flood
This large water loss was caused by a ruptured water line that flooded the entire 10,000 square foot basement of this commercial building. SERVPRO of Missoula's crews got to work immediately - we extracted several thousand gallons of water and silt, set up temporary power generation and power distribution to run the large number of commercial low grain refrigerant dehumidifiers, air movers and HEPA air filters required throughout the structure. Affected drywall was removed up to one foot from the floor to access the affected framing and insulation as well as help prevent secondary damage from occurring. SERVPRO of Missoula also inventoried, packed, cleaned and disinfected the contents of all seventeen rooms in to offsite storage for the duration of the repairs. The structure was cleaned and a safe, effective botanical disinfectant applied to help ensure the building would be safe to reoccupy after repairs. All drywall, trim, paint and flooring was repaired or replaced throughout the basement. SERVPRO of Missoula made this commercial loss “Like it never even happened.” SERVPRO of Missoula can be reached 24 hours, seven days a week at (406) 327-9500.
