Damage from a fire doesn’t end with the blaze and the water the fire department uses to put it out. Smoke damage can be pervasive, challenging to eliminate and even effect your business equipment. The longer it goes untreated, the more it sinks into your walls, floors, and furniture.

A fire doesn’t even have to be in your office to inflict smoke damage – a fire in an adjacent building can send smoke billowing into your facility. Left unchecked, this can cause lingering odors and discoloration to your business which is why you should call Armor Environmental Solutions immediately. We are responsive, dependable, expedient and have the expertise to rid your office of the offensive odor of smoke, restore your walls, and purify your air.

It More than Stinks.

Yes, smoke causes an unpleasant and belligerent odor but smoke and soot worse than stink. These substances are incredibly acidic and this acidity can damage almost any building material or surface. The longer these acids linger on your surfaces, the more damage they do. This means that smoke cleanup is a time sensitive process. The sooner call Armor Environmental Solutions to remedy the situation, the less damage is done to your business, saving you time and money

Time Sensitive, you say?

Yes. Smoke damage operates by a surprisingly predictable schedule. When theres a fire, within:

• Minutes: smoke and soot can cause yellow staining. Especially to porous materials like plastics and marble.
• Hours: the acidity in soot and smoke can cause permanent staining to pipes, grout, mortars, metal surfaces, and carpets
• Days: due to high acidity, much of this staining can become permanent. Rust can start to form on previously discolored metals. Many materials in your office from floors to furniture to office equipment may need replacing.
• Weeks: if left untreated for weeks, the dissolved particles and acids in soot and smoke can become release toxic chemicals, causing permanent corrosion and damage, and also posing a health risk to your employees and patrons.

Whether you’re dealing with flood damage, water damage from a fire, or a plumbing disaster, water damage can really dampen your business. You need an experienced team of flood cleanup experts. You need Armor Environmental Solutions. For water damage repair, flood damage restoration, or water damage restoration service, we are unparalleled for responsiveness, efficiency and professionalism.

Rapid Response is Key

It is generally an expert recommendation that when flood hits, cleanup begin within 24 hours. There are many reasons for this. The safety of those who use your building from employees to customers may be at risk.

Within twenty-four hours after a flood, microorganisms can begin to grow. This includes bacteria, molds, and other airborne pathogens, which can risk the health of those inside. These risks double after 48 hours. Check out our blog on Mold Damage here. Simply put, the less time that water has to cause damage, the less damage it will cause. The Grand Canyon wasn’t carved by a river flowing for a week. The more porous the surface, (ceiling tiles, drywall, insulation, etc.) the quicker the damage occurs.

Other problems can arise from inaction. This can range from odors to ruined fabrics to damage to wood, concrete and other building materials. These problems are just from regular standing water, the need for speed is only accelerated (for obvious reason) if the water damage has come from a broken sewer line.

Mold infestations can mean big problems for business owners. Mold can damage buildings as well as cause harm to humans, not just to the owners of a business but to the employees of a business. This means your business or its ownership (you) could be legally vulnerable. Speedy action is required in this instance. But did you know, not all molds are created equal? Neither are all mold remediation companies. Armor Environmental Solutions will take our combined over 100 years of experience and put it to work for you so that you can get your business back on track as quickly and painlessly as possible.

What is mold? How does it form?

Mold can develop almost anywhere as long as three conditions are met: an organic material on which to form (your wood, carpet, drywall or insulation should do nicely) moisture, and oxygen. You won’t always see mold spores in the air, but if they land someplace damp, a mold colony will consume wherever they decide to grow.

Are all molds dangerous?

Yes and no. All molds are dangerous to structures and building materials. All molds also have the potential to cause adverse health affects. Some molds trigger allergies or asthma, and some other molds are known to generate some pretty powerful toxins and irritants.

At Armor Environmental Solutions, we know that mold damage is serious business. Our business is serious about removing it. If your commercial property is damaged from mold,

Commercial properties are expensive assets and even the slightest of damage can cost you thousands of dollars. Repairing a damaged part of your commercial building can be challenging. Finding the right company to fix your commercial property damages, and ensuring that you are provided with quality analysis can be tough. There are some precautionary measures that you can take to prevent a flood from seriously damaging your property. This article will highlight five most effective ways to protect your commercial property from flood damage in Yonkers.

Getting Property Insurance in Yonkers
Consider getting insurance through an agency that has expertise in water damage restoration in Yonkers. It’s important to note that most property insurance companies do not provide flood damage coverage. People often purchase additional 

coverage from another source, ensuring that it does not intervene with the current insurance policy. Some insurance policy providers provide additional coverage options and security privileges. These can help in protecting against natural disasters and at times cover monthly maintenance of the property. Armor Environmental Solutions is an emergency restoration company in Yonkers that provides disaster protection and repairing services. They specialize in water damage restoration services in Yonkers and host a team of flood cleanup experts.

Analyze Like a Boss

Before hiring or getting any professional help from restoration companies in Yonkers, evaluate your current situation. Understand the symmetry and foundation setting of your commercial property. If your commercial property is on a lower level, it is at a higher risk of experiencing flood damage. If your building is on a slope or on a higher level, then the chances of water damage are minimal.

Waterproofing the Property

You really don’t need a hurricane to hit your property to experience flooding. Even the slightest thunderstorm can lead to interior flooding and damage. Since water can seep through tiny cracks, a potential flood can lead to significant damage which can later cause molding. Apart from hiring a team of professionals get your commercial property waterproofed. This can save you thousands of dollars that would be spent on damage repairs.

Create an Emergency Flooding Plan

Plan ahead of time and before a disaster strikes. Strategize and work out a possible solution for ‘worst-case-scenario’ situations. You don’t want to end up stuck when disaster strikes. Having an emergency plan in hand can be a life saver. Flood cleanup experts in Yonkers can provide you with an emergency flood plan that can be insightful for you. Additionally, conducting routine drills helps flood victims remember how to protect themselves in a flood. Routine drills and action plan updates should be timely amended in accordance to the severity level of flooding.

Ensure Quality Maintenance Check Ups

The biggest mistake that commercial property owners do is that they usually don’t hire a maintenance team to conduct checkups and routine maintenance of the property. These checkups usually include the plumbing systems, sewer lines, drainage systems, electrical, and heating systems. These maintenance checkups 

ensure that the components of the building are working properly and do not require additional repairs. Conducting a proper and vigorous routine checkup can save you from serious flood damage.

Conclusion

Hire AES, a water damage restoration company in Yonkers that provides water/flood damage repair services affordably and efficiently. Through their advance safety precautionary measures AES protects your commercial property from severe water and flood damage.
