Large Loss Cleanup After a Flood and Water Damage Events

Uniformed SERVPRO tech is establishing a contamination barrier to protect instruments, employees, and patience during flood water removal

We’re Faster To Any Size Disaster

Our SERVPRO team recently helped a Boston-area biomedical facility overcome the damages from two emergencies simultaneously, flooding and a water leak. Containment would play an intricate part in regulating conditions and protecting property, healthcare workers, and patients.

SERVPRO is Here to Help

Re-establishing a cleanroom environment for patients and the instrumentation was a top priority. We erected containment walls to help establish ideal conditions and create specific barriers between affected areas and sanitized space. Maintaining negative pressure and the deployment of more than 200 HEPA air scrubbers helped to prevent cross-contamination concerns.

Thorough Drying for the Facility

With a large loss scenario like this, trailered equipment like desiccants played a role in the rapid removal of moisture from the environment to slow the potential creation of mold colonies. Other necessary drying and restoration equipment included:

• Air movers 
• Generators 
• Negative pressure machines 
• Disinfection products 

Disasters can strike large facilities at any time – but our SERVPRO of Saugus, West Lynn team, is ready 24/7 to help when you call (978) 744-0409.
