Hotel and Motel Water Damage Recovery

By the RestorationSOS Educational Staff

Once a water damage emergency happens, the best piece of advice is to call a restoration company immediately. The company will dispatch an initial damage mitigation team to the site to start the cleanup process. The team will also review the scope of the project and come up with an assessment, while meeting regularly with the hotel engineer and appropriate hotel officers.

After the assessment, the team's manager will arrive to survey the situation, discuss the plan and come up with related strategies so that both parties have an agreement as to what needs to be done first. For extensive water damage, the restoration company may send a larger crew with even more specialized equipment.

Extensive water damage may take a week to address completely. It is important in business recovery to choose a restoration company that understands the urgency of the situation and the risks of the incident to the business.

This way, the team will work on restoring the water-damaged areas in a manner that will not interrupt the hotel's daily business. While hotel managers wish they would never need a restoration team at their disposal, they would surely be glad they decided to locate one when the need arises.
