Commercial water damage in the township ranges from a single storefront along Route 41 to apartment buildings and offices near Route 42 and Route 55. The source is often bigger than in a house: a roof drain backing up on a flat roof, a sprinkler line, a riser or a water heater serving many units. The water can cross a large floor or reach several tenants before it is shut off.

Multifamily and tenant losses
In apartment buildings a leak in one unit often reaches the unit below and the hallway. Each affected unit gets its own moisture map so the owner, the tenants and the insurers can see what was wet and what was dried. Category 2 and 3 water, such as a sewer backup in a basement storage room, is contained and treated before drying starts.
Planning ahead
Knowing where shutoff valves are and keeping roof drains clear prevents most large losses. Ready.gov for businesses covers emergency planning, and FloodSmart.gov explains commercial flood coverage. Large drying jobs follow the same structural drying standard as homes.
First steps for commercial water damage
Shut the source
Close the riser, valve or main.
Protect people
Close off wet areas and cords.
Move stock and files
Lift goods and records off the floor.
Photograph it
Document each affected space.
