How do you minimize your losses during a commercial disaster recovery.

SERVPRO of Bloomington/Pontiac can help keep your business running.

When you own a commercial property, you are providing a good or service essential to the community. When you suffer a disaster it not only disrupts your life and livelihood-it could be affecting large portions of a community.

A simple example is a large Gym. A gym has a large pipe break and lots of water damage. This shuts the gym down until repairs are complete.

This affects the daily life of many of the patrons. There are many that depend on the morning workout and power drink to get them going for the day. Others are on a track for fitness-this makes them change up plans. While it all seems very trivial and minor to damage like this, it isn't to that individual. 

What do you do? How do you cope with the business needs and the needs of your clients? The answer is never easy and it really isn't simple at all....however, having a plan will help take the sting off. 

Can goods or services be moved to a temporary location off-site? How extensive is the damage, will it be a long closure/recovery? The key to the plan is having an open line of communication with your contract/remediation team. Being open about your needs and knowing exactly what to expect will help to execute your plans. 

Back to our example, let's say the damage is extensive enough that the gym will be closed for 3 months. A good option would be to locate an appropriate "temporary" space and move basic equipment. Communicating with your clients that this is what they have options for will help them make informed decisions every time. 

Your business may not run exactly the same but you are still providing goods/services to maintain your part of the community.
