Flood damage extends beyond simple water intrusion, including issues such as mold growth from standing water, residual moisture, and compromised air quality. These conditions can affect employee performance, leading to health risks and potentially leading to increased healthcare claims or even lawsuits due to unsafe working environments. Moreover, customers are unlikely to visit a business with foul odors or health hazards, which could ultimately force a business closure.

Commercial Water Damage Evaluation Process

Upon arrival at your property, our team utilizes advanced equipment and techniques, similar to those used in residential services, to identify and remediate water damage

Mold Inspection

. This includes finding moisture, extracting water, boosting air circulation, drying out spaces, and removing odors. We conduct thorough inspections to assess damage and locate the water source, taking necessary steps to stop its flow. Special care is taken to address hazardous water types, such as black water, ensuring the eradication of harmful microbes. Mold assessments and treatments are conducted as needed. Unsalvageable items are removed, and heavy objects are moved during the cleanup process and returned to their original positions afterward. Our use of deodorizing and anti-microbial agents refreshes the air quality in your building, ensuring a safe, fresh environment for both employees and customers.

At Charmo Mold Testing, we prioritize the rapid restoration of your commercial property to lessen health risks and financial impacts, ensuring your business can get back to normal operations as quickly as possible.
