Water damage can happen quickly in a facility with multiple residents. Call SERVPRO and we respond quickly to your disaster.

SERVPRO's Quick Response can Help Avoid Mold Damage at Your Facility

When apartments built for assisted living sustain water damage keeping the residents safe and on-site, if possible, is of particular importance. Our experienced and trained technicians at SERVPRO pledge to make every effort to contain the restoration efforts we make, so that vulnerable residents stay in their homes while damage is mitigated.
 
Assisted living facilities face the same risk of commercial water damage as any Prattville multiple family dwelling. If a resident or an attendant in one unit lets a tub overflow or fails to secure a shower curtain, excess moisture leaks into other apartments, causing a complicated water damage scenario. Appliance failure resulting in water damage to common areas such as laundry rooms or the facility's group kitchen impacts the daily routines of all residents. We plan our restoration work to minimize disruptions, often permitting uninterrupted meal and personal care services to those who live in the facility.
 
Our professional grade equipment makes short work of water extraction, undaunted if multiple levels of your assisted living facility are affected. We can scale our response to the level of your disaster, taking care of the water damage fast even if it means reaching out to other SERVPRO franchises in our nationwide network. Our connections ensure we have enough staff and tools to dry out affected areas quickly, averting the need to move residents. Air movers and dehumidifiers bring moisture levels down to the drying goals our skilled staff set within hours.
 
A swift restoration also prevents the danger of mold growth due to the water damage. Attending to harm done by leaks or appliance flooding immediately greatly decreases the possibility of microbial infestations. Some residents of your facility may be susceptible to health effects if mold is present. Only their health care professionals advise appropriately about mold concerns, but our drying and cleanup deflect the issue by preventing mold from getting a chance to thrive.
 
If we find a mold outbreak, we contain it using air scrubbers. Negative air pressure, physical barriers and air filters guard your staff and residents against exposure. Our staff is trained in EPA approved protocols for mold remediation in schools and commercial buildings, precisely the level of response needed for your facility.
