With heavy rain it’s all too common for excess water to gather and cause serious problems. Following a torrential downpour in Warrington, our team at Rainbow Restoration Ltd were called out to help restore a building.
Our blog this month focuses on the water damage restoration services we recently provided at the Genesis Centre Building.
What Happened?
Heavy downpours aren’t uncommon in Warrington and our team were recently called out to help the Genesis Centre. Following a large amount of torrential rainfall, the drains became blocked and started overflowing. This resulted in water accessing the building, causing damage and disruption for the businesses that call this their base.
There were around 13 rooms on the ground floor of the building which were impacted by the water damage. We were called out in an emergency and were on site as fast as we could to start work restoring the flooring and rooms.
Cleaning We Carried Out
Once there, we gathered our specialist equipment and started work. The first step was to extract water safely, leaving the space free to dry out. As the water came from the drains it was crucial that thorough sanitisation was carried out. This is an important process as it removes any unwanted germs, smells and grime.
After this we set to work installing drying equipment to speed up the process of restoration. Doing this allowed 8 businesses to carry on trading the following day. In total, we were on site from 6.30 pm until midnight to ensure that our work was complete.
Recovering After Water Damage
When a large amount of rain falls in a short period of time, there isn’t always a lot you can do about it. Drainage systems can easily become overwhelmed and unfortunately the water needs to go somewhere. However, if you do experience a flood or damage from escaping water, you can restore your building.
At Rainbow Restoration in Warrington our team acts fast and can be at your site in an emergency. We carry out several services including water extraction and the removal of standing water, sanitising, as well as on-site and off-site drying.
