Commercial Water Damage
Even in a well-managed office, water damage emergencies will still happen. Today more than ever with the uncertainty in the economy and more buildings being vacated, it is crucial for business owners to be ready for any crisis, including water damage. Being prepared as early as possible will enable a business to recover more quickly from unpleasant and unexpected situations like flooding or cooling system failure. It will also mean that business operations can return faster to normal. At Restore Force Inc. we offer pre-loss planning, call an associate to ask for more information.
Be Prepared
If you are business owner or office manager, being prepared for emergencies is a must. Some of the basic preparedness steps to learn includes, first, knowing how to turn off the lines that supply water to the building. Routine checking of these supply lines should also be put in place to make sure the controls are working. In addition, keep appropriate emergency tools in the building within easy access to your staff.
You should post a list of phone numbers to call during emergencies on several accessible areas in the office such as phone numbers for the fire department, emergency response units and the police. Similarly, prepare a list of contact information for water removal companies and plumbing technicians so you can get in touch with them right away should the need arise. If your business is located in an area with high risk of hurricanes and flooding, it is strongly recommended to prepare a service contract with a reliable comercial water damage cleanup and restoration company ahead of a crisis.
Minimize Water Damage Effects
The steps above underline the importance of quick response to water damage, which is the key to reducing further damage to the building such as mold and mildew growth and getting your business back to its usual day-to-day operations. Costs will also be reduced the sooner the damage is contained and restoration begins since more items can be salvaged and, hence, fewer items need to be replaced. Also, fast cleanup will prevent mold development, which can also be costly to remediate.
Indeed, every minute matters when a business is faced with water damage loss because the losses are not only the existing damage brought on by the water disaster but also includes the lost sales and production in each day the business is interrupted. Customer satisfaction will certainly be affected. Customers who cannot wait to make a purchase will ultimately go to your competitors. If you offer services instead of products, not being able to recover quickly from commercial water damage due to a lack of a business continuity plan shows poor business sense and can discourage potential clients and displease existing ones to the point that they may not renew their contract with you. You have to understand that the production delays you cause your clients also translate to financial losses to them.
Plan Ahead
As you can imagine the recovery process involves many different things including evaluation overall damage, conducting repairs on the affected location, relocating the business if the damage to the office makes it impossible to conduct business there and making any necessary modifications to the temporary office, renovations to the water-damaged building, re-ordering of inventory and office supplies, and communicating with customers, staff and suppliers. Establishing a business continuity plan will enable you to continue business operations while completing the recovery process the soonest time possible.

Dangers of Hiring an Unlicensed Person
By adminPublished: March 3, 2011
Dangers of Hiring an Unlicensed Person
Unlicensed persons typically do not have the education, insurance, or qualification required of a licensee.
Poor quality work. Unlicensed contractors typically do poor quality work or do not finish the project, leaving the homeowner on the hook to repair or finish the project.
Possible criminal background. Unlicensed persons often have criminal backgrounds that may include fraud, theft, violent crime, sexual offenses, and substance abuse.
Likelihood of being the victim of a scam. Unlicensed persons often disappear after taking your money, and the department cannot discipline an unlicensed person, help get your money back, or require the person to finish or improve the work done. Scams in the construction industry, especially home improvement, are sadly widespread. Con artists pose as contractors and often target vulnerable people and take advantage of homeowner’s need for urgent post-hurricane property damage.
Limited resources for broken contracts. When you have a dispute with a licensed contractor, you call the department, which has the authority to discipline and even revoke the license. This gives the licensee more incentive to play fair. However, this type of action is not available against unlicensed contractors and homeowners often find the only answer is an expensive, and generally futile, civil suit.
No insurance and liability for injuries to others: You may end up being liable for personal or financial injuries to others. An unlicensed contractor typically is uninsured and will have no way to pay you back for any property damage.
No coverage under homeowner’s policy. Most homeowner policies require that work must be done by a licensed contractor and provide no coverage for work that is not.
Noncompliance with building codes. Most projects, even small ones, require permits and inspections that unlicensed contractors ignore or are unfamiliar with. If your project isn’t permitted or doesn’t comply with the building code, you may have to remove or repair the work at your own expense and be subject to fines by local government.
Liens being imposed on your property. You may be subject to liens placed on your property by subcontractors or supplies. Please see www.dbpr.state.fl.us/reg/Liens.html for more information about Florida lien law.

Did you know?
Mold assessment and mold remediation are techniques used in occupational health: mold assessment is the process of identifying the location and extent of the mold hazard in a structure, and mold remediation is the process of removal and/or cleanup of mold from an indoor environment.
A Mold Inspection Business is different than a Home Inspection Business.
In an effort to protect the citizens of Florida, Florida Governor Crist signed inspection legislation (SB2234) into law. This law regulates the Mold Inspection industry and Home Inspection businesses and individuals. Individuals now need a Florida DBPR Mold Assessor license. The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation handles the licensing and necessary licensure requirements/qualifications.
Comprehensive Structure and Content Damage Assessment
Remediation teams record the extent of the contamination and moisture saturation levels to determine existing health hazards and develop a remediation plan. Lab tests are taken whenever necessary.
Controlling Mold Contaminant at the Source
This step is taken to isolate mold contamination and prevent it from becoming airborne. Once isolated, health threats are reduced as mold will not further spread to clean areas.
Disinfecting and Eliminating Mold Contamination, Anti-Microbial Treatments
The best way to eliminate mold is to remove the excess mold contamination by:
Wet vacuuming water from floors, carpets, and hard surfaces where contaminated water has accumulated.
Damp-wiping and scrubbing mold off nonporous (hard) surfaces using a water and detergent solution.
High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) vacuuming for final cleanup of remediation areas and after all materials has been thoroughly decontaminated and dried.
Discarding materials and furnishings that are contaminated with mold growth and cannot be salvaged.
MOLD VS. YOUR HEALTH
Mold is a major health concern, especially when dealing with infants and the elderly. Most health problems from mold come for the abundance of mold spores in an indoor environment, prolonged exposure to such an environment can cause many health issues. Such as, fever, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, respiratory dysfunction, headaches, dizziness, etc…
Mold Spores
Mold is not just an ugly sight that can ruin clothing or furniture; it is a health hazard that can seriously contaminate the air you breathe. Mold produces microscopic cells called “spores” that can be spread through air, water, or even on the bodies of insects.
