Document Drying

Even with our reliance on computers, we still have some materials on paper. By “documents” or “paper”, we mean:

  • Certificates, diplomas, awards, newspaper clippings
  • Books, journals, magazines
  • Photographs, film, negatives, microfiche, x-rays, photo albums
  • Files and folders
  • Blueprints, other planning documents

SERVPRO of San Diego City SW has a document-drying facility that helps restore all types of documents to legibility, even those of unusual shapes and sizes. Our facility is monitored and secure, so it meets HIPAA and other privacy requirements.

Procedures

A typical process:

  • Freeze dry: freezing the document before it air-dries helps prevent it from ripping.
  • Gamma-irradiate: if mold or other contaminants reached the documents, they will continue to cause damage. Getting rid of the contaminants helps preserve the document.
  • Digitize: We scan and copy the document to a computer file so you can read it in that format and keep it in that format.

We may or may not be able to restore the original document to its preloss condition, but we use the same procedures and the same equipment as the National Archives in Washington, D.C. If it is possible, we will do it.

SERVPRO of San Diego SW Promises

No job is too small, and no job is too large.

Business space is too expensive to be wasted. If there is damage, it is important. If your business is a one-desk operation, we’ll treat it with as much as respect as we treat a multi-office corporation.

We also have access to resources from franchises across the United States and Canada. If a disaster were to hit the entire county, we could continue to provide services.

Faster to any size disaster: call 619-269-5004. We’ll assemble a team and our equipment and be onsite as quickly as possible.

Trivia Time!

The Office of Trivialities dug back into United States history for this one:

During WWI, President Wilson saved on human labor by having sheep graze on the White House lawn. Profits from sales of the wool were donated to the Red Cross. Not bad.
