Don't let water damage ruin your venue bookings. SERVPRO has the expertise to dry your business.

Honor Reservations Despite Water Damage at Mahopac Event Center  

Every type of business handles exposure to water loss differently. Moving operations off-site or closing for a few days while our team addresses the water removal and drying can work for some companies with only minor ill effects. Other businesses have their physical location wholly integrated with their products and services. A Mahopac event center cannot deliver what you promised if a water emergency compromises the building.  

Special Celebrations Cannot Wait 

When water damage invades your Mahopac business, a fast response is crucial. Your clients reserve the space and catering service for once-in-a-lifetime events like weddings, anniversaries, graduations, and the like. Rescheduling is impossible in nearly all cases, and merely reneging on the contract you signed with your customers destroys your reputation and chases away future bookings. 

A Professional Team  

SERVPRO responds as soon as possible to your call for help. Our employees hold multiple certifications from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC), preparing them to apply mitigation and remediation best practice strategies. We can scale our response concerning the extent and intensity of the damage, supporting your responsibility to provide the services promised. 

Top-Notch Resources 

When we arrive at your site, our signature green service vehicles contain the water detection and extraction tools needed to clear the liquid water from the space. Moisture detectors map the dimensions of the water migration, and moisture meters establish the amount of water absorbed by structures. SERVPRO focuses on fast water removal, using commercial-grade submersible pumps and truck-mounted or portable extractors. For wet carpets, our technicians use an in-place technique leveraging the combined weight of our extraction equipment and the weight of the workers to force as much fluid out of both carpeting and padding as possible. If hardwood floors are soaked, we rely on negative air pressure (suction) to pull water from several layers, including the subfloor using tightly adhered floor mats. 

Efficient Drying Strategies 

Once the liquid water is gone, SERVPRO technicians calculate drying goals. We use the moisture data from the metering done during the assessment and compare that to the levels in similar materials in unaffected areas of the building--the drying standard. We use a combination of air movers, heaters, and dehumidifiers to reach the drying standard. The heat and air movement accelerate evaporation while the dehumidifiers capture the resulting vapor for disposal.
