A water loss in a business costs twice: the damage and the days closed. Kearny has storefronts along Kearny Avenue, offices and apartments over shops, and warehouses and terminals on the low ground of South Kearny and Kearny Point, where river and surge water arrive first.
Phasing the work around the business
The mitigation team works with the owner or manager to decide what stays open and what gets contained, so unaffected areas keep operating.
- Containment walls around wet sections
- Night and weekend work where it helps
- Large-loss dehumidifiers for open floors and warehouses
- Clear paths for staff, tenants and customers
Shared buildings with several tenants
A leak in an apartment over a store reaches the business below, and a sprinkler or roof drain failure can wet several tenants at once. Each space is mapped and documented on its own, so every tenant and owner has a clear record.
Water still moving? Close the shutoff if it is safe, keep clear of wet outlets, then call.
