Commercial Large Loss are those assignments where mitigation alone exceeds $75,000, and more often is in the 6-figures. These type of jobs rarely happen in residential losses

There is a difference, often, between what is done in residential losses and what is done in commercial large losses. Equipment. Strategy. Reporting. Management. Estimating. Invoicing. All of these can be quite different than the normal residential loss.

There are a handful of commercial large loss companies with the ability to do jobs that take months and months, and invoice in the eight figures – $10,000,000 to $40,000,000, and even into the nine figures, taking more than a year to mitigate and rebuild.

Companies set up for losses in the eight figures have the horsepower and management structure such that they eschew losses under $1,000,000. This gap between a $75,000 job and a $1,000,000 is where premier mitigation companies like PuroClean Northwest come in.

PuroClean Northwest is a GSA company (we are approved for federal and state government assignments). We are able to mitigate post offices, federal buildings, structures in military bases and shipyards, city hall, anything governmental.

Our company is trained in both the technical aspects of Commercial Large Loss (IICRC CDS), but also the project management aspects of Commercial Large Loss.

Commercial Large Loss – Water

  • Losses can be due to accident (industrial chiller) or vandalism (opening valves intentionally)
  • Often have to be creative in equipment, power sources, water disposal for dehumidifiers.
  • Multiple crews attack such assignments, and having duplicate specialized equipment pays off.
  • Returning the structure to pre-loss conditions, or to useable conditions, quickly is important.

Commercial Large Loss – Fire

  • Large loss fires required attention to attics, all floors, basements, and crawlspaces.
  • For fire with water we often use generators, desiccant dehumidifiers, extractors, dumpsters, and more.
  • Multiple crews are always involved due to the scale of the loss.
  • Industrial appliances need care and analysis, as well as hoods and HVAC systems.

Estimating and Reporting

Closing Comments: We have done multiple assignments for BMS Cat, and multiple assignments for Signal Restoration, and even assignments for DFW Restoration. We come into these assignments as the primes do not have a presence in the Puget Sound Area but have clients who have properties here. We partner well with others, and we take the risk based on a trust relationship. Damage has to be addressed quickly, and we work with client program managers to serve the property owners. That’s our way, serve the property owner!
