The most critical factor in recovering from a disaster is time. In our experience, the longer it takes to respond to a disaster, the higher the cost of recovery. ATI has developed a tool to help you recover quickly from a disaster. Our Emergency Response Agreement (ERA) provides for priority service in times of peak demand, providing for rapid response and efficient recovery. Our ERAs feature pre-determined pricing, taking the guesswork out of your recovery budget process. An ERA from ATI can be an important part of your Disaster Recovery Plan, providing peace of mind should an unfortunate disaster event occur.

Disaster Recovery Planning is often an afterthought. For those entities that are fortunate enough to have a plan, many times it has been developed without the benefit of a Disaster Recovery firm. ATI has helped thousands of clients prepare for and recover from disaster events. When identifying your Disaster Recovery Team of internal and external stakeholders, be sure to include more than one Disaster Recovery provider. This will ensure that you are adequately prepared if an emergency or disaster occurs.

Emergencies and disasters often pose major challenges to smaller companies. These challenges can impact their ability to respond quickly, staff the work, and deal effectively with a myriad of resulting environmental issues.

Small firms and franchises often have limited local resources and can be quickly overwhelmed. Their resources may be adequate for day-to-day events, but when dealing with a large-scale disaster or widespread emergency storm event, small teams can quickly find themselves overwhelmed. With multiple emergencies occurring at once, small firms and franchises may not be able to respond at all.

For larger emergency and disaster events, larger firms with scalability are critical. With more resources readily available at their disposal, larger Disaster Recovery firms will:
• Implement a quick response & recovery plan
• Limit operational interruption
• Contain and mitigate environmental, toxic or biological exposures
• Be in full compliance with regulations to avoid unnecessary fines & penalties
• Safeguard all stakeholders from potential illness or injury

When identifying your Disaster Recovery Team of internal and external stakeholders, be sure to include one or more large Disaster Recovery providers. This will ensure that you are adequately prepared if a larger-scale disaster occurs.

The Three Categories of Commercial Water Damage

There are three types of water damage that can affect commercial properties:

Category 1 (clean water) from freshwater sources
Category 2 (gray water) from sinks, tubs, and laundry machines
Category 3 (black water) from sewage backups, seawater, and ground surface water

While any type of water intrusion can cause damage, black water contains toxins and pollutants that are harmful to humans. Our HAZWOPER-trained technicians are qualified to address all types of water damage safely and effectively, helping you resume normal business operations in the shortest amount of time possible.

Regardless of the category of water that has damaged your commercial property, quick action is paramount to prevent further damage and mitigate health risks. We are available 24/7/365 to come to your location and craft and begin a customized water damage restoration plan without delay.

Leading Causes of Commercial Water Damage

There are several types of commercial buildings. The type of building, its use, and its location will all play a role in the types of water damage it may be most susceptible to. However, some of the most common causes of water damage to commercial properties include:

Plumbing Issues

From a simple leak to a burst pipe, plumbing issues can cause severe water damage, especially if not detected and addressed promptly.

Faulty Appliances and Equipment

Commercial buildings often house large appliances and systems, such as HVAC units, water heaters, and commercial refrigeration units. If these malfunction, they can cause substantial water damage.

Roof Leaks

Damaged or aged roofs can let water seep into a building, especially during heavy rains or snowfall. This can lead to significant damage, including mold and structural issues.

Natural Disasters

Events like hurricanes, heavy rains, and floods can cause extensive water damage.

Sprinkler System Failure

Commercial properties are equipped with sprinkler systems for fire safety. However, if they malfunction or go off accidentally, they can cause significant water damage.

Sewage Backup

Sewage backups are particularly problematic. In addition to causing water damage, they also pose a significant health hazard due to the contamination involved.

These incidents can occur without warning, making it essential to have a trusted partner like ATI Restoration that you can rely on no matter the time of day.

What is the difference between water mitigation and water damage restoration?

Water mitigation is a preventative measure. Our team evaluates your building for areas of water risk and helps you make any adjustments or repairs to your building. Water restoration is the process of repairing the damage caused by water being where it shouldn’t be in your building.

What are the different types of water damage?

Water damage ranges from small leaks to complete flooding. A sewage backup could cause lots of trouble and push wastewater or blackwater back into your facility. A derecho can cause flooding that damages most of your property. To plan the type of water damage response depends on the classification of water. This is based on the amount of contaminants in the water.

Damage caused by water that is generally clean and is not harmful is considered as a category 1 of water damage. It is common to refer to this as clean water damage. The most common causes for a category 1 type of damage are faulty sprinkler systems and leaking water line faucets.

Category 2 includes water that has been contaminated and can cause harm if you try to mitigate the damage without the proper protective gear. This type of water is called gray water and can cause sickness due to the levels of microorganisms and biological matter.

The last category of water is life threatening; it is unsanitary, referred to as black water. It contains dangerous toxigenic agents and pathogens from standing water or raw sewage. If ingested, inhaled, or touched, this type of water can be deadly. Fast response from trained professionals is necessary. Without the proper PPE, exposure to this type of water through the mucous membranes or any cuts and punctures on the body can lead to death. This type of water is referred to as category 3.Time is of the essence when it comes to the flood restoration process. Standing water is the perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow. Also, bacteria and bacterial spores spread quickly, a category 1 can easily become a category 2 or even 3.

What are the most common signs of water damage?

There are some signs of water damage to be aware of if your property didn’t experience visible water damage. Peeling paint and wallpaper, mold and mildew, condensation, musty smell, and damp/wet carpets, carpet pads, and rugs are all common signs.
