Disasters don’t follow a schedule. Whether it’s a fire, flood, or storm, emergencies can happen at any time, often when least expected. At Better Box, we understand the urgency of disaster recovery and offer 24/7 emergency services to respond quickly and mitigate further damage. When every minute counts, you need a trusted team that’s ready to act—day or night.
In this blog post, we’ll explain how Better Box responds to emergencies and why rapid action is essential to saving your property and belongings.
The Importance of Immediate Response
In the aftermath of a disaster, the clock is ticking. Water damage can lead to mold growth within 24-48 hours, and soot from a fire begins to corrode surfaces almost immediately. Delaying action can result in further damage that’s harder and more costly to repair.
Our 24/7 emergency services ensure that we can be on-site quickly to assess the situation, prevent further damage, and begin the recovery process. Whether your property is in Tucson, Phoenix, or Las Vegas, our team is prepared to respond swiftly to emergencies, no matter the time of day.
What Happens When You Call Better Box
When you contact Better Box for emergency services, here’s what you can expect:
- Initial Assessment: Our team will arrive on-site to conduct a thorough assessment of the damage. We’ll determine the extent of the disaster, identify at-risk areas, and develop a plan of action for recovery.
- Pack-Out Services: In many cases, immediate pack-out services are needed to remove items from the affected area and prevent further damage. Our team carefully packs and inventories your belongings, transporting them to a secure facility for cleaning and restoration.
- Damage Mitigation: Whether it’s fire, water, or smoke damage, our first priority is stopping any ongoing damage. This may include water extraction, boarding up damaged windows or doors, or covering exposed areas to prevent further harm from the elements.
- Cleaning and Deodorization: Once the immediate damage is contained, we begin the process of cleaning and deodorizing your property. Using specialized equipment and techniques, we remove soot, water, and debris, and treat smoke odors to ensure your home is safe and livable again.
Why Speed Matters in Disaster Recovery
- Fire Damage: After a fire, soot begins to settle on surfaces within minutes. If left untreated, it can permanently discolor walls, furniture, and appliances. Immediate cleaning is critical to prevent permanent damage.
- Water Damage: Standing water creates the perfect environment for mold growth, which can begin within just 24 hours. Mold not only damages your property but also poses serious health risks. Rapid water extraction and drying are essential to prevent long-term issues.
- Smoke Odors: The longer smoke odors linger, the harder they are to remove. Smoke particles penetrate deep into porous materials, making it difficult to completely eliminate the smell without professional deodorization techniques.
By responding immediately, Better Box prevents these secondary issues, saving you time, money, and stress.
Advanced Technology for Fast Recovery
Better Box uses state-of-the-art equipment to handle even the most severe disaster recovery situations. Some of the advanced tools we use include:
- Industrial Dehumidifiers: After water damage, dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air to prevent mold growth.
- HEPA Air Scrubbers: These devices filter out airborne contaminants like soot and smoke particles, improving air quality and making the space safe to breathe.
- Ozone Generators: For severe smoke odors, ozone generators neutralize odor-causing molecules at the source.
24/7 Availability for Peace of Mind
One of the most stressful aspects of a disaster is the feeling of helplessness. With Better Box’s 24/7 emergency services, you can rest assured that help is always just a phone call away.
