Commercial Water Removal Services After a Sewer Backup in Your Belmont Business
3/27/2018 (Permalink)
Sewage and Water Damage Often Provide a Double Challenge for SERVPRO and Your Enterprise
One of the most unpleasant things that can happen to your Belmont clothing boutique is a sewer backup. A blocked sewer pipe can cause wastewater to back up into your shop. The contaminated water damages your building and the contents inside. It can also create health effects for you, your employees, and even your customers.
A sewer backup leading to water damage in your Belmont building is something you want to get taken care of immediately. Besides being unpleasant, you need commercial water removal services as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the building or your merchandise and displays. SERVPRO technicians are always standing by for emergencies like this, so you can call us as soon as an urgent situation arises.
During some remediation jobs, biohazards are present. Many of them are invisible to the naked eye and can only be detected under a microscope. Many biohazards are harmful upon exposure which is why we always wear protective gear while working in a water damage situation like this.
Any water damage can have organisms which create a health threat to occupants and workers. Sewage water is certainly problematic, and SERVPRO techs realize that this type of water is highly infectious waste material. The water could contain several different diseases and living organisms. Besides this, the water can emit methane gas and other sewer gasses that are harmful to breathe. When working in environments like these, we follow all proper safety precautions.
When working in contaminated environments with any biohazards materials, it requires that we use personal protective equipment-PPE. It includes wearing a full-body suit with hood, latex or rubber gloves, and eye protection in the form of goggles or a full-face mask. Our technicians are also required to go through safety training before we begin working in a hazardous environment. The final result is that by being trained, equipped and prepared we can expedite your water damaging event to a rapid conclusion.
