Restoration Technology That Helps Speed Commercial Water Mitigation


When moisture intrusion is affecting your commercial property, it’s important to mitigate the situation as quickly as possible. Whether the problem is related to a plumbing issue, a leaky roof, or a serious flood, certain steps must be taken to help prevent further moisture from seeping into structural components. Having access to innovative commercial water mitigation technology can make all the difference when it comes to stopping moisture in its tracks and laying a solid foundation for the restoration process.

At 1-800 WATER DAMAGE, we utilize state-of-the-art tools and advanced techniques to address moisture intrusion in commercial environments. These strategies enable our highly skilled technicians to pinpoint hidden sources of moisture, extract standing water, and thoroughly dry out affected areas.

Precise Moisture Detection Using Thermal Imaging Technology

A thorough response to suspected moisture intrusion begins with an accurate assessment of the problem. Water can spread in unpredictable and often invisible ways. For example, it can seep beneath flooring, migrate behind walls, and pool in structural cavities. A visual inspection simply isn’t thorough enough to provide a comprehensive understanding of the problem at hand.

That’s why we bring along our thermal imaging equipment. These tools help our technicians do the following:

  • Detect moisture-related temperature shifts
  • Locate building materials that are saturated with water
  • Identify pockets of trapped moisture and pooling
  • Minimize the need for guesswork during the assessment process

Thanks to our thermal imaging technology, we can quickly develop a targeted plan for extracting moisture and drying affected areas. This approach promotes efficiency and a smoother journey towards pre-loss conditions.

Accelerated Water Removal Using Professional Extraction Equipment

In commercial environments, water damage commonly involves standing water that covers significant square footage, often in spaces that are difficult to access. As challenging as this problem is, mitigating it with speed and efficiency is a must in order to help prevent additional damage and allow for prompt repairs and, ultimately, restoration.

Our technicians come prepared with commercial water mitigation technology, such as professional water extraction equipment featuring auto-pump-out capabilities. This equipment is specifically engineered to efficiently remove high volumes of water, even in spaces where access may be limited. 

Reliable Drying With Professional-Grade LGR Dehumidifiers

After excess water has been removed with our extraction equipment, it’s time to address the issue of the moisture that remains in the air and in affected materials. High-capacity drying equipment is essential in commercial environments, where materials are frequently capable of absorbing significant amounts of moisture. Fortunately, we have professional-grade LGR (Low Grain Refrigerant) dehumidifiers that get the job done right.

These high-performance dehumidifiers do the following:

  • Dry structural materials
  • Reduce humidity in the air
  • Offer precise control over moisture levels
  • Provide consistent drying, even in tough conditions

When used strategically, often in tandem with air movers and ducting systems, our LGR dehumidifiers play a key role in our water damage restoration process.
