Do you handle water damage in offices and shops?
Yes. This referral service covers businesses in Southlake and nearby cities, including offices, retail units and restaurants. The water work is the same — extraction, drying, cleaning and repair — with planning around your trading hours and your stock and equipment.
How fast can work start at a business?
It depends on the scope you describe. Call (000) 000-0000 at any hour, say it is a business premises, and describe which areas are affected; you will be connected with a provider who can explain the next step for your situation.
Who pays — the tenant or the landlord?
It depends on your lease and on whose insurance applies, which is a question for your landlord, your insurer and your lease wording rather than this page. What the provider controls is the water work and its documentation — readings, photos and invoices that both sides’ insurers will ask for.
What documentation will my business receive?
The same record a homeowner gets, kept with your job: dated photos, moisture readings from the drying days, and an itemized account of the work done. Insurers and landlords both ask for it, so keep copies with your own claim file.
Can the work be done outside our opening hours?
Drying equipment runs around the clock once it is placed — that part does not need your staff present. Noisy or disruptive steps, like removing damaged material, can often be scheduled around trading hours. Ask the provider to plan the noisy work around your peak times when you call.
How long will we be disrupted?
Extraction is usually the first visit; drying runs several days with equipment in place. How much of the premises you can keep using depends on which rooms are wet and whether the water was clean. The provider can give a clearer picture once they have assessed the premises.
Local facts
- Southlake Town Square and the SH-114 corridor hold most of the city’s offices and retail — business water damage here is mostly roof, sprinkler and restroom-line leaks, not river flooding.
- Business interruption and landlord/tenant documentation are the two questions businesses ask first — both are answered above.
- Sewage in a business follows the same Category 3 rules as a home (see Page 7’s “can a business stay open” question).
