SERVPRO professionals are trained to every level of damage to your property.

Sprinkler System Damage to Your Marlborough Restaurant Dining Area

Sometimes disasters that can affect your Marlborough restaurant remain isolated to one area or another. While this might help regarding the efficiency of restoration, it can also put certain items and elements more at risk than even a widespread situation would. Sprinklers are spread throughout your entire restaurant to suppress fires as they start, but when these systems malfunction or become damaged, they can spread high volumes of water through specific regions of the restaurant, such as your dining area. Protecting your investment in this area of your business requires a fast response from trained professionals.

There are many materials within the dining area of your Marlborough eatery that, after a fire, instantly become at risk when also exposed to water damage like a broken sprinkler system allows. This water flow can spread quickly across the floor, saturating carpeting, seating, tables, and booths. If not adequately extracted and dried, these saturated areas can begin to swell and distort, ultimately requiring removal and replacement. Our SERVPRO professionals can respond quickly to emergencies like this with fast extraction equipment and high-powered drying tools.

Smoke odors are never an inducement to good dining, so count on us to immediately place hydroxyl generators for neutralization. 

Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration and Cleanup

From the time that our professionals arrive at your business, we can work on assessing the full scope of the water damage by using moisture detection and thermal imagery. These steps can occur alongside our extraction efforts which would include the use of our portable sump pumps or wet-vacs with extraction wands. We can even utilize our remote-controlled weighted extractor to force moisture from carpeting and subflooring. Hidden moisture can typically be found in the hollows of seating booths.

The line cooking section of the restaurant usually is equipped with a dry powder fire suppression system in the event of flare ups. Water splashing onto hot grills and pots can endanger the cooks and spread the flames to a broader area. This is another specialized cleanup that our trained SERVPRO techs can accomplish to keep your doors open for business. Fire affects different restaurant areas in various ways, and we must be flexible to deploy the right equipment and efforts for an effective fire damage restoration. 

Drying out the damaged areas is not always starting equipment and leaving it to do its job. We must monitor the moisture levels of exposed and saturated wood elements like the booths and some flooring to maintain a specific moisture level. Wood naturally carries a set moisture content, and overly drying can be equally detrimental to the appearance and functionality of the material. 

Many steps are necessary to recover the dining area of your restaurant after a water damage incident. Let our SERVPRO of Marlboro / Concord rapid response team help you make this damaging situation “Like it never even happened.” Give us a call today at (978) 486-9868.
