Commercial flood restoration for property & facility managers

When water hits an office, retail centre, strata building or aged-care facility, every hour of downtime costs. We dispatch IICRC certified crews across Melbourne and Sydney, coordinate multi-area worksites, and deliver insurer-ready documentation your stakeholders can act on.

  • Same-day commercial response
  • Multi-site & strata coordination
  • Insurer & stakeholder reporting
  • Minimal tenant & trade disruption

Property managers.
Facility managers. Strata.

We specialise in commercial water events — not one-off residential jobs. Clear communication, documented scopes and crews that understand occupied buildings.

  • Induction-ready technicians
  • Controlled access & PPE
  • Daily progress briefings

Commercial operators

The commercial problem

Stop losing days
to slow restorers

Residential-first restorers leave facility teams chasing updates while water migrates into structure, plant and tenancies. Floodrest is set up for commercial tempo.

Typical response

Hours waiting on a call centre with no ETA
No multi-area plan for strata or campuses
Incomplete docs that stall insurers and OCs
Tenants and trades left without updates

should call immediately

These events escalate quickly in occupied commercial buildings.

Standing water on site

Any visible water in lobbies, plant rooms or tenancies needs immediate extraction before it migrates into structure.

Water under commercial flooring

Water under raised floors, carpet tile or into wall cavities needs professional drying equipment and monitoring.

FAQ

Commercial flood questions, answered

Common questions from property managers and facility managers calling after a commercial water event.

How quickly can you attend a commercial flood in Melbourne or Sydney?

For Melbourne and Sydney metro sites we aim for same-day attendance, often within 2–4 hours depending on location and crew availability. We work after hours and weekends when facilities need minimal disruption.

Can you coordinate multi-unit or multi-tenancy damage?

Yes. We scope each affected area, prioritise critical zones, and provide unit-level or zone-level reporting so property managers and owners corporations can brief stakeholders clearly.

Do you provide documentation for insurers and stakeholders?

Yes. We provide photographs, moisture and humidity readings, equipment lists with daily rates, and cause-of-loss notes — the pack insurers, OCs and head contractors typically request.

What commercial sites do you service?

Offices, retail, hospitality, aged care, healthcare, strata buildings, industrial sites and education facilities across Melbourne and Sydney metro, plus surrounding areas within roughly 100 km of each CBD. See all service areas.

Are your technicians IICRC certified?

Yes. Floodrest is operated by Premrest (Premier Restorations Group Pty Ltd), an IICRC Certified Firm. Our technicians restore water damage in line with the IICRC S500 Standard for Professional Water Damage Restoration.
