Should your office have an emergency restoration need, call SERVPRO. We are equipped and ready to meet your needs.

Water and Fire Losses can Leave a Severe Need for Professional Cleaning, and our Qualified SERVPRO Technicians can Help 

Cleaning is a vital effort after any loss incident, but water and fire emergencies can have a widespread, overwhelming effect on your Knoxville office. Regardless of the size of these events, each has an array of fast-spreading effects that can make restoration and recovery a challenge. Because cleaning is such a common thread in all restorative efforts, our cleaning technicians are among the most versatile and adaptable in our roster. 

When you need commercial cleaning for your Knoxville office, whether it is post-disaster recovery or improving your structure's look and feel, our SERVPRO team can help. We have a growing roster of experienced technicians capable of providing your business with the necessary recovery tools after water or fire losses. In many ways, the fast response and expertise of these responding professionals can save you time and money after a water loss incident.  

What Can Happen After Water Losses?  

Water losses are among the most common calls for our SERVPRO professionals, meaning that our team must be prepared to face any threats that could arise with these emergencies. From a leaking supply line filling up a toilet in the employee bathrooms to a burst pipe beneath the sink in the break room, a situation can get out of hand without the right mitigation steps happening as soon as possible. Some of these actions include:  

• Extraction – As you might expect, one of the most critical steps for water restoration responders is removing standing surface water. With an array of efficient removal tools, including both submersible pumps and wet vacuums, our technicians can manage surface water to protect exposed materials and contents better.  

• Drying – As necessary as the removal of surface water might be, eliminating moisture from materials and contents is a primary stage in restoring these areas on-site. We know that there is no time to waste from documents in your records that need our freeze-drying capabilities to evaporative drying from carpeted flooring.  

• Content Management – In residential settings, content management protects personal belongings from the destruction of fire and water incidents. In your office, this phase is even more valuable, as it can preserve desks, chairs, carpets, and pieces of equipment from the migrating effects. 

What Do Restorers Do for Fire Damages?  

Because many fire losses in Knoxville can become hazardous cleaning and restoration zones for those who travel through it, it is vital to secure a team that can arrive quickly to begin mitigation and safety inspections. What professional restoration technicians can do for your emergency varies from one incident to the next. Scoping the job ahead of many of these mitigation tasks can help to ensure both that we have the personnel, equipment, and products available to protect your main office areas, furniture, and devices. Some of these mitigation tasks include: 

• Surface Cleaning – Wipe cleaning and more abrasive cleaning techniques like soda blasting are critical efforts to overcome wet smoke residues, soot, and other potentially harmful carcinogens. 

• Air Quality – Soot is a threat to the environment as well. Circulating soot particles, ash, and other contaminants and debris can be a hazard for those exposed. Cleaning up the situation where fire losses have taken place often involves specialty tools such as air scrubbers and hydroxyl generators.  

• Content Management – Protecting your office space's belongings consists of the furniture, records, and even electronics. We can relocate some of these items to less damaged areas of your facility to wait for the restoration to complete. In more direct damage scenarios, compromised contents get transferred to our local SERVPRO facility for cleaning and deodorization. 

• Deodorization – Removing odors involves more than neutralizing smoke scents left in a room after a fire. Many fire odors can become embedded in drywall, carpeting, and wood furniture typical in your office bullpen. With numerous odor removal tools, such as thermal foggers and ozone machines, we can meet your office's specific needs.
