Protecting Electronics Post Water Intrusion–Call SERVPRO
Water damage repair needs in Farmington commercial buildings are not limited to only flooring, walls, and structure. Although this damage is difficult to deal with, the business may need to close until the water is removed, the space is dried, and repairs are completed before reopening. Damage to essential documents and electronics such as computers, printers, shredders, and servers can be catastrophic for the business.
Commercial businesses can rely on SERVPRO to provide water damage repair services in Farmington for damage to flooring, walls, and structure. Our building services team coordinates all the trades needed to make the repairs as quickly as possible, saving time and cost for the business owner.
Documents exposed to water can also be damaged. Papers can be reprinted; however, signed original documents, for example, are needed for business record purposes. SERVPRO can review with the owner which documents must be protected and dried before additional damage occurs. While the existing damage to documents cannot be reversed, they can be saved and retained for business needs. Quick action with help from the owner can help to minimize the damage.
Electronics such as computers, servers, and printers are susceptible to water damage. Turn all equipment off to avoid electrocution risks and avoid further damage to the equipment. Everything must be thoroughly dried before attempting to operate these devices. SERVPRO can cover equipment with plastic to prevent further exposure. Allowing temperatures to fall below the dew point can cause condensation and corrosion.
SERVPRO can arrange a qualified electronic restoration vendor to evaluate the equipment and complete water damage repairs and restoration services. Turn on the equipment when it has been adequately dried and checked to avoid permanent damage.
