Commercial Flood Damage In Danbury Theater Center

12/28/2019 (Permalink)

How Professionals Can Help You Handle Commercial Flood Damage in a Danbury Theater Center

Flooding that is brought on by a storm, hurricane or heavy rain can severely ruin a theater center, affecting its normal operations. After receiving the news of flooding in the theater center, the ballet and opera companies that had scheduled performances in the facility can scramble to find new spaces. Flooding can also affect the typical items stored in a theater center such as knee-high boots, costumes, and timpani drums.

When there is commercial flood damage in your Danbury theater center, you need to pump out the water quickly, dry, and sanitize the facility to prevent secondary damage. The water can ruin the building’s walls, elevators, floors, ceilings, and its mechanical, electrical, and HVAC systems. Our SERVPRO team can help you extract the water using portable pumps. It may be necessary to remove water on multiple levels in the building. Portable extractors are convenient to use because we can take them to different areas of the building. Our crew can also dry the structure thoroughly by using air moving and dehumidifying equipment.

Flooding can also cause unpleasant odors in the theater. This is particularly the case if items like opera boots and shoes rot after exposure to water. Our team has the expertise to remove unpleasant odors in the building. We can use equipment like thermal foggers to eliminate the foul smell. Thermal foggers use a solvent-based deodorizer, which is heated and then sprayed in the form of dry fog. The deodorizing solution can permeate even the hard-to-reach spots because it is in the form of a mist. The vaporized cleaning solution or smoke that thermal fogging equipment creates pairs with unwanted odor molecules to absorb them, and eliminate the smell from the premises, “Like it never even happened.” Thermal fogging is safe to use on most surfaces and is useful for dealing with most odors.

Typically, floodwater contains infectious organisms like bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Removing these contaminants from your theater is vital. Our SERVPRO team can use OSHA-approved cleaning agents to eliminate them. The disinfectants we use can limit or stop the growth of harmful microorganisms. Since theaters are relatively large, we can use powered sprayers or hand pump-up sprayers to spray the disinfectants or antimicrobial products directly on the affected surfaces.

After floodwaters enter your theater in Ridgefield, Redding, or Redding Ridge, starting the remediation process quickly can prevent a long period of inactivity. Contact the professionals at SERVPRO of Danbury / Ridgefield to begin the restoration process. Our helpline is (203) 791-0920.
