Water damaged documents are devastating for a business. But don't worry! Call SERVPRO! There are many techniques we can try for restoration.

SERVPRO Techs Take Special Care with Atlantic City Commercial Water Clean Up

There can be numerous concerns going into a business that needs restoration services. SERVPRO techs communicate with the property owner to determine areas within the worksite that are a priority, such as:

• Important documents 
• Expensive computer equipment.
• Data centers and networking devices
  

When commercial water removal happens in Atlantic City businesses, SERVPRO technicians work on extracting the water and removing personal items that could incur damage from the elevated humidity. Essential papers and files are a crucial part of most organizations. Even though many businesses utilize cloud storage and data center backups, most also have paper files with vital information for daily operations. When this paperwork has gotten wet, it is not necessarily that it needs disposal. SERVPRO techs have training in handling and restoring documents. 

The techs rely on the same methods that the Library of Congress utilizes for historical documents: freeze-drying. The vacuum-freeze-drying equipment used by SERVPRO is the exclusive method approved by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) and the General Services Administration (GSA) for document preservation.

In cases where computer equipment has been exposed to moisture, the technicians can arrange for an industry expert to inspect the units before reuse to ensure they are operational and safe to use.
