Commercial Risks in Minneapolis
Freezes and broken water mains
During the deep cold of January 2019, water mains broke and power failed in parts of the Twin Cities area. A split sprinkler or supply line in an unheated space can flood several floors of an office or apartment building overnight.
Hail and damaging wind
A hail core crossed the western and northern suburbs on August 5, 2019, damaging roofs, windows and siding. Straight-line winds in July 2025 brought trees down and caused power outages across the metro. Openings in a roof or envelope let rain reach ceilings, insulation and stock.
Downtime for tenants and staff
Retail floors, classrooms and apartment corridors cannot sit wet for days. Work is phased so unaffected areas stay open when it is safe, with documentation your insurer and property manager can follow.

Signs You Need Commercial Restoration, and What To Do First
- Water from a ceiling, sprinkler line, or roof drain
- A sewage backup in restrooms or floor drains
- Smoke or soot after a fire in the building or a neighboring unit
- Musty odors or visible mold in a stairwell, office, or storage area
- Wet carpet tiles or swollen baseboards along exterior walls
- Storm damage to the roof, windows, or entry doors
Make sure people are safe and the area is clear, shut off the water source or sprinkler zone if you can, and protect electronics and records. Call (612) 488-2293 so we can stabilize the building and plan the work around your operations.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
The scope depends on the size of the affected area, the building systems involved, and the need to keep parts of the building open. We phase the work, set up containment, and plan noisy or disruptive work for hours that suit you.
A contained water loss in an office suite can often be dried in a few days. Larger losses involving several floors, tenants, or fire damage take longer and move into reconstruction. We give property managers a written plan and daily progress reports.
For healthcare-adjacent offices, schools, and multifamily buildings, the plan also covers who can enter affected areas, how containment is maintained between work shifts, and how residents or staff are informed. We keep a single point of contact on our side so the property manager, the adjuster, and the tenants hear the same information, from the first call through the final walkthrough.
