Water Damage in a Physician's Office

8/24/2018 (Permalink)

Residential homes are not the only ones that experience water damage. This commercial physician’s office experienced a flood after a ceiling pipe burst and affected the entire complex, including an adjacent occupied office space. Not only were medical tables and office equipment affected, so were years of medical records.  Residential storage rooms can be a nightmare when water damages contents in them, but in a medical building it can destroy years of medical history within minutes. This medical group not only had written files on their patients, but fortunately for them, these files were also scanned in their computers. Drying equipment was set up in these rooms and the contents were all dried with minimal damage to the files.  Happily all the party items were also saved!
