What Mason's commercial base looks like
Mason's largest employers include the Procter & Gamble Mason Business Center, Luxottica Retail headquarters and Cintas corporate headquarters, and more than 90 corporations have headquarters or manufacturing operations in its 24 commerce parks. Deerfield Towne Center adds retail and restaurants, while Kings Island, Soak City and Great Wolf Lodge add hospitality and water park systems.
The Mason Community Center, which has two pools, and the water park resorts add large water systems that can fail like any other building system.
How commercial drying is run
The building is divided into zones, the wet zone is contained and dehumidifiers are sized to large volumes. Ceiling tiles, carpet tiles and base drywall are removed where saturated, and after hours work is scheduled where possible so staff and customers can keep working.
Large losses use structural drying methods at scale.
- Ceiling tiles and insulation removed where wet
- Zones isolated from the unaffected area
- After hours scheduling where possible
Records for the carrier and manager
Commercial claims often involve a business interruption assessment, so photos, equipment logs and daily readings are organized by zone. Restaurants and retail areas also need quick documentation of stock and finishes, since the carrier looks at both. Where a sewage or storm source is involved, the work follows the sewage backup cleanup protocol.
