Parkland FL Storm Damaged Garage Ceiling

When bad weather leaves behind storm effects to a Parkland garage, roof damage is one of the most common issues. SERVPRO technicians can scope the area where the widespread water stain appeared in the Before Photo to find the source of the leak. This early intervention of leaks inhibits larger-scale damage such as mold or the weakening of building materials, including the track and cable mount-area for the garage door, leading to expensive problems for the property owner to fix. Technicians create a temporary tarp on the roof to prevent further deterioration. The standard method for handling this type of water loss includes cutting away the damaged ceiling area, as shown in the After Photo. This action directs the airflow from the centrifugal air movers over a larger area, drying it faster. The application of antimicrobial sealants inhibits any mold growth on the wood beams.
