SERVPRO will get your Poughkeepsie business back to normal after your fire damage.

Trust us to help you through your fire damages in your Poughkeepsie business.

A primary concern of responding technicians seeking to restore fire losses in a Poughkeepsie mall is to limit the migration of effects throughout the shopping center. We strive for an absolute barrier, and with the use of 6 mil plastic sheeting and zipper lock seals, we can bring the spread of odors, soot, and smoke residues to a halt. Our professionals understand the importance of protecting all of the stores near the origin of the emergency, and that starts with a fast response to the disaster.

Fires can occur for any number of reasons, and in a mall, even a small blaze can affect several adjoining units, making fire damage in Poughkeepsie shopping centers a situation that can quickly get out of control. Our SERVPRO team has trained heavily for all aspects of fire loss, becoming accredited through the standard-setting Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) in multiple facets of this restoration niche.

Plastic sheeting is the cornerstone of the containment practices that we implement when we first arrive at the mall. By the installation of barriers, technicians like our SERVPRO team can regulate temperature, airflow, and other potential concerns within this quarantine zone.

We know that your priority is getting the affected stores open again as quickly as possible, and for some, that can mean more substantial recovery. Beginning with ventilation for the property, our technicians can then thoroughly inspect the damaged regions for structural weakness and begin tasks like controlled demolition. The removal of soot or smoke-damaged construction materials can reduce the present odor threatening this area of the mall.

Once this demolition has been completed, our professionals can seek to reduce odors and air contaminants with several possible machines. Hydroxyl generators utilize UV cleaning to address contaminants and debris in the environment as well as noxious odors. Our team can also choose other options, including thermal foggers, UV foggers, ozone machines, and deodorizing cleaning.

Overseeing production in a mall means that many shops and franchises depend on a fast and deliberate response when disasters strike. To keep the situation from becoming a widespread and more challenging situation, you can count on our SERVPRO of NW & SE Dutchess County team to help. Give us a call anytime at (845) 635-4550.
