SERVPRO Can Help Clean and Disinfect Your Furniture After a Water Leak

Imagine you own a coffee shop, and your furniture is now soaking wet after a leak in the kitchen. Mitigating your loss is essential to keeping the business open and serving your customers. Salvaging your furniture is part of protecting your investment.

Thankfully, in Lafayette, you can accelerate the water cleanup of your business by calling our SERVPRO technicians. For your convenience, we are available around the clock and can arrive at your coffee shop soon after you detect the emergency. By acting quickly, you can minimize the time water sits on your carefully chosen pieces of furniture and ruins them.

Can upholstered items be cleaned?

At SERVPRO, we can often share the good news with our customers by letting them know that their items are salvageable. Of course, several factors determine whether it is reasonable to treat an upholstered item or if it is better to let them go. The fabric, damage, plus your preferences aid the decision-making process. Once we are ready to salvage a piece, we apply ourselves by using one or several techniques. These may include:

• Shampooing the upholstery
• Using a wet-dry vacuum
• Hand dry and spot treating

First, we pre-test an inconspicuous area of your armchair or couch before we apply a full water damage restoration treatment. Spot testing helps us anticipate any bleeding, shrinking, fraying, or discoloration. All this preparation and deliberate use of cleaning solutions and techniques help us preserve your upholstered pieces and leave them like new.  If we can't save them, we take care of their disposal for you.

SERVPRO of Lafayette is at your service to minimize the disruption to your daily life. Call us at (765) 420-0077 and let us leave your coffee shop "Like it never even happened."
