Comprehensive Flood Damage Restoration for Commercial Properties in Birmingham, AL

Birmingham and the surrounding communities are no strangers to torrential rains and flooding. Both these issues present major problems for commercial properties, especially those in low-lying areas. Floods can put retail properties, like grocery stores, completely out of business unless they are handled professionally and swiftly. When a popular Whole Foods plaza flooded three times in 30 days, they called in the professionals at Royal Restoration, and we answered the call.

Due to record rainfall and shortcomings in public infrastructure, the 92,000-square-foot Whole Foods plaza had to close its doors three times in a single month due to water damage. The extensive destruction eventually led to mold, structural problems, and a complete reconstruction project. With its vast resources, professionally trained team, and state-of-the-art technology, Royal Restoration handled the entire project from start to finish, effectively saving multiple businesses within the plaza.

Industry Specialization: Royal Restoration Specializes in Flood Damage Repairs for Commercial Properties

When commercial properties suffer flood damage, every second counts. Loss of inventory combined with downtime can put any business under, not to mention the inconvenience to customers who depend on retail stores for their everyday needs. Royal Restoration understands the unique challenges that retail and commercial properties face, and we demonstrated our specialized skill set during the Whole Foods Plaza project.

The team started by building short-term structures and relocating the largest client into a temporary space within 48 hours to prevent business interruption. What followed was a comprehensive water extraction and mitigation effort involving high-volume water movers and industrial-grade dehumidifiers. The entire premises was moisture-mapped using state-of-the-art probing technology to ensure all the water had been safely removed. Next, the team conducted mold assessment, testing, and full-scale remediation to remove harmful pathogens. Finally, a full reconstruction of the damaged structure was completed, and the plaza was reopened for business. The project highlights Royal Restoration’s ability to scale to any size disaster and offer reliable service to one of the world’s largest chain retail stores.

“When our office flooded my initial concerns were risks to my patients and how long I would need to close my clinic. Royal Restoration assured me these would be minimal and stood true to their word. Due to their rapid response and vast knowledge of the disaster industry, they had us back up and running within 24 hours and we only had to reschedule a handful of patients. Quality service is hard to beat!”
