While it is true that water damage is most often caused by huge storms and flooding, there are many other factors that can result in a water problem as well. In fact, seemingly minor issues like small leaks have been found to cause much greater damage than natural disasters, as they happen more frequently and usually remain unnoticed for a long time.​

Water leaks pose a very significant threat to commercial buildings, in particular, as they use much bigger amounts of water than residences – either for their business activities or simply because of the large number of people using the water fixtures in the facility on a daily basis. Therefore, leaks in a commercial building lead to the waste of hundreds of gallons of water per day and can substantially increase the company’s monthly bills. What’s more, some plumbing leaks can cause severe water damage to the building and necessitate expensive repairs.​

To avoid such troubles, property owners need to maintain their buildings in excellent condition and seek efficient professional solutions at the first sign of a water problem.

Water damage to your building or property can appear from a variety of reasons. Unfortunately, when you do deal with water damage you will deal with mold growth and many other problems.

Commercial Water Damage and Restoration San Antonio Process:

Step 1: Emergency Contact: The restoration process begins when you call us. Stay Fresh of San Antonio is available for water emergencies, large or small. When you are dealing with water damage, immediate action is crucial. Even a delay of a few hours can greatly increase the severity of the water damage.​​

​

Step 2: Inspection and Damage Assessment: When responding to a water damage emergency, we begin with a detailed inspection of your home or property, including a damage assessment. At this stage, our professionals are trying to determine the scope of the damage so that we can develop an appropriate plan of action.​​

​

Step 3: Water Removal/Water Extraction: After the inspection and damage assessment step, the water extraction process begins. This step removes the majority of the water. We use powerful pumps and truck-mounted vacuum units to quickly remove hundreds or thousands of gallons of water from your property.​​

​

Step 4: Drying and Dehumidification: Once the excess water has been removed, the floors and walls may appear dry, but a quick inspection will reveal they are wet to the touch. Nearly all building materials, like wood, drywall, and flooring materials, are porous and therefore retain water. This retained water can cause the materials to break down, warp, or cause mold damage.​​

​

Step 5: Cleaning and Repair: Your walls, flooring, and ceiling will most likely require professional cleaning services. In addition to cleaning your property’s structure, we will clean your furniture, upholstery, clothing, and other restorable belongings damaged by the water. Most flooding and water damage also require professional odor removal and deodorization since wet materials have a very distinct odor.​​

​

Step 6: Restoration: Restoration, the final step, is the process of restoring your home or business to its pre-water damage condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and installing new carpet, or may entail major repairs, such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
