Commercial loss restoration is necessary to restore hundreds of items that are lost to fire and smoke damage each year. In fires, soft goods like heavy clothing, bedding, and blankets often take the brunt of smoke and flames, not to mention the efforts to diffuse the dangerous elements. After all, a heavy jet of water is going to leave water residue behind and create biohazards. A microbial infestation is not uncommon in a surviving structure post-fire, which can escalate into big losses if this infestation spreads.

At Soil-Away, we have experts who deal with commercial loss restoration on a daily basis. Our team can return damaged goods to pre-flood conditions. Over the years, we have helped save the appliances, fixtures, and carpets of numerous clients who just wanted to return to normalcy. Our Industrial Hygienist can conduct an air and surface sample test to help verify how high the toxin levels are. This establishes a mold spore count baseline, which works as a blueprint. This is only the beginning. That’s why if there’s a fire, Soil-Away can help.

Esporta-Certified Operators 

Certified Esporta Operators are responsible for commercial loss restoration success. In the wake of a fire, traditional washing applications cannot fully restore water- or smoke-damaged soft goods. The only sure way to restore belongings and property is to use the Esporta iS4000 Wash System.

The state-of-the-art Esporta consumes 35% less water than traditional laundry machinery. With the proper care, Soil-Away promises complete restoration of textiles and soft contents. In fact, 85% of thought-to-be unsalvageable belongings can be cleaned and stored away until they are 100% free of smoke and mildew. Likewise, any unsalvageable items will be inventoried, documented, and disposed of safely, along with any harmful debris. 

Thanks to a 24-hour turnaround, your most sentimental belongings stand a chance of renewal. You won’t have to throw away as much as you would expect following a destructive fire.

Commercial Loss Restoration Inside Your Home

Commercial loss restoration isn’t just about saving furniture or cleaning the living room carpeting. A home exposed to fire can become a deadly breeding ground. Water combined with smoke inside a tight structure can result in harmful indoor air quality, which instantly puts the property occupants in danger.

Soil-Away also knows the importance of cleaning and sanitizing the affected rooms and foundations of a home. Debris and soot are not something you can deal with on your own; many unknown side effects can further contaminate your property or cost you money. For a return to a healthy environment, our operators use HEPA vacuums and filtration systems. This technology can wash the affected areas clean of any contaminants so your family members can breathe clean air without worry. We make sure to thoroughly sanitize and deodorize surviving items. Commercial loss restoration helps you move on from loss.

Most people expect a property to be safe and sturdy. It’s easy to take a structure’s condition for granted, even when that location is unfamiliar. Unfortunately, storms can shatter those expectations, with strong winds or flooding allowing moisture and mold to wreak havoc in the aftermath. Violent storms have the potential to cause severe damage due to lightning strikes, high winds, and rainwater that seeps into hard-to-see places.

Not that it takes a harsh storm to create an in-house disaster, either. In a more mundane scenario, faulty water pipes can create considerable damage to a property’s interiors at every level. Having water flood your home is bad enough, but the situation can turn dire when a sewage line backs up and bursts. Once this occurs, the problem escalates into a toxic scenario that requires expert handling. Soil-Away has deep cleaning and disinfection methods that can address damaged belongings and interiors.

Basement Water Extraction

If your property has a lower level, then you might know from experience how quickly belongings can become submerged during a flood. Timing is crucial here because the longer water sits, the easier it is for bacteria and toxic residue to permanently mark clothing, stuffed animals, and soft furnishings. Soil-Away can extract water successfully, with no residue left behind. Using high-tech equipment, our team can find even the most hidden of water pockets.

In the wake of a basement flood disaster, we can restore salvageable items to prime condition. Thanks to the highly effective Esporta Wash System, we can restore soft contents to a food-grade safe level. We take sports gear, children’s stuffed animals, and other soft materials from the site of the disaster and store them until clean-up can begin.

No Leftover Debris

We’ll inventory, document, and dispose of unsalvageable items with the debris. During the restoration project, our services can expedite your insurance claim process by providing accurate documentation and photos. This way, any damages and details of our restoration procedures will be there for reference.

One important step is to remove submerged materials. For example, porous building materials, such as drywall and carpeting, should be disposed of as soon as possible to avoid the further spreading of toxins. Once torn-out debris is handled, Soil-Away applies the best deep cleaning and disinfection methods to the remaining areas until the site resembles its pre-damaged state.

Deep Cleaning and Disinfection After Burst Pipes

Bitterly cold winters and high wind chills can cause pipes to freeze and burst. This is one of the most unpredictable and destructive conditions in nature. It causes millions of dollars in commercial damage each year. Hundreds of personal belongings see moisture, mold, and bacteria damage. Deep cleaning and disinfection is the only way to completely salvage any items pulled from the wreckage.

At Soil-Away, we use HEPA vacuums and air scrubs to wash away signs of grime. To be thorough, we also sand, dry-ice blast, and use whatever techniques the situation calls for. Once we dispose of any toxic materials, we dry the areas with large fans and dehumidifiers. With the property in the clear, we can replace any damaged components with fresh materials.
