10/26/2022 (Permalink)

Your restaurant’s bar is meant to have a pleasant and light atmosphere. It’s where you can relax and have a good time after a long day. When a natural disaster takes over and leaves your restaurant bar with a restoration and cleanup checklist, you may not know what to prioritize or where to start. As a business owner, it’s normal to worry about productivity rates during restoration and cleanup. Fortunately, you can rely on SERVPRO of Belle Meade and West Nashville to conduct a seamless move-out and pack-out process. During this time, you can have the opportunity to continue business operations at a temporary location while our crew handles the water damage cleanup and restoration process at your West End bar. 

How Do You Keep Your Restaurant Bar Functional During The Water Damage Restoration Process? 

• As we mentioned before, moving out to a temporary location to conduct your business operations is one of the most effective ways to stay productive. We know it won’t be the same, but this method will lead to a quicker remodeling process AND can protect your contents from further damage on-site. 
• SERVPRO can coordinate move-outs, sure, but we can also coordinate move-ins just as smoothly! When we complete the restoration process, we will communicate with you and your team to determine the services we offer depending on your restaurant’s insurance coverage. 
• Our Contents Claim Inventory Service (CCIS) provides a precise and accurate list of your belongings. Our database goes room-by-room to give you detailed information about your contents which settles claims quicker. 

What Can You Do To Prevent Water Damage To Your West End Restaurant Bar?

• Check your appliances regularly! You don’t have to spend hours examining your equipment, but administering regular inspections on your appliances will do more good than harm. You also want to place particular importance on appliances connected to water lines, like your bar’s refrigerator. 
• If a broken pipe is the cause of your bar’s water damage, train your employees to locate it and turn it off in that instance. If the main water valve is shut off promptly as the downpour starts, you could save your bar thousands of dollars in damage. 
• Inspect your roof! Leaks germinating from the attic are one of the most covert ways water damage can occur over time, so it’s a good idea to double-check your restaurant bar’s roof and make sure there aren’t any hidden leaks. 

Structural damage, revenue and productivity shifts, and mold are all unfortunate aftereffects of water damage. It can be disheartening and a massive pain to deal with.
