How the restoration team works around a business
The first walkthrough maps moisture and sets priorities: what has to be dry first so the space can reopen. Wet sections are closed off with plastic containment so the rest of the building stays usable. Large-capacity extractors and dehumidifiers go in, often running overnight and on weekends. Documentation follows the same standard as residential work, with daily readings and photos, but scaled to what property managers and commercial adjusters need.
Commercial claims often involve the owner, a tenant and a property manager. A clear moisture map and daily log keep everyone working from the same facts.

02Are suspended ceiling tiles replaced?
Tiles wet with clean water that are not sagging can sometimes dry. Stained, sagging or contaminated tiles are replaced.
03Who should call for a tenant space?
Either the tenant or the property manager can call. The restoration team documents the loss so both parties and their insurers have the same record.
04How is inventory handled?
Inventory is moved or lifted off wet floors early. Water-damaged stock is photographed and listed for the claim.
05What if the sprinkler system caused the flood?
The sprinkler contractor repairs the system; the restoration team handles the water damage. Fire sprinkler water is usually Category 2 because it sits in the pipes.
