Report and close
The final records go to the owner and the insurer. Copies are prepared for each party.
Melissa grew from 4,695 residents in 2010 to 13,901 in 2020, and stores, offices and restaurants along US 75 and State Highway 5 have grown with it.

How business losses are handled
Crews coordinate with owners or property managers to protect inventory and equipment, extract water and set drying equipment with minimal disruption. Work is planned around business hours where possible. Walkways, loading areas and customer entrances are dried first so the business can serve people sooner. Ceiling tiles that have dropped water are replaced as part of the dry-out.

- After-hours scheduling when needed
Restaurants, retail and offices
Restaurant floors need extraction and sanitizing, retail units need clean aisles and dry shelving, and offices need dry carpet and walls so staff can return. Each type has its own cleanup order. Restaurant losses also involve food safety, so floors under equipment, drains and prep areas are cleaned as well. Retail stock on lower shelves is moved before extraction begins.
Documentation for claims
Business interruption and property claims depend on records. Photos, logs and invoices describe what happened and how it was handled. Landlords, tenants and insurers often each need copies, so the file is kept organized by area.
