Torrential Rains

When torrential rains fall, and water cannot disburse or settle in the ground it will enter any building in its way. This prestigious college found inches of ground water entering their large main library with thousands of books and other historical items that could have been damaged for good. This is one row of many isle bookcases that have had their books packed out and sent to a Document Restoration Company to have them all restored to their original state prior to the flooding. After packing up boxes of water damaged documents industrial air movers and dehumidifiers are placed to dry carpeting and custom-made bookcases. Each one of these bookcases were individually elevated in order to dry the carpeting and bookcases completely so that when the documents returned they would be able to be put back in specific areas “Like it never even happened.”
