What gets checked
Ceiling grids, wall bases, carpet tile and stock areas are metered, and wet items are photographed and listed before anything is moved or discarded.

Commercial Water Damage questions in Freehold, NJ
Can a shop stay open during drying?
Often partly. Work is phased so dry zones reopen first, and noisy equipment is scheduled with the owner.
Are after-hours crews available?
Yes. Work can run after closing so the business loses fewer hours.
What about restaurants and kitchens?
Kitchens add grease, drains and equipment, so extraction and cleaning come first, then drying.
Is documentation for the insurer included?
Yes. Photos, readings and a full file are kept for the claim.
What about stock and fixtures?
They are photographed, listed and moved out of the wet area where possible, which helps the inventory side of a claim.
How long is a typical shop closed?
It depends on the spread. Phased drying keeps dry zones open, and the readings decide when the rest can reopen.
