Water Restoration
We have handled many jobs that have involved water damage, from floods to broken water pipes and backed up sewers. If water and moisture damage is managed properly with a controlled drying process the entire restoration project will be finished sooner. Left unchecked, mildew can wreak havoc. Our Certified Water Loss Specialist will extract water, dry out contents, walls, carpet padding, and carpets in most cases to prevent mold and mildew occurring. Special extraction equipment, air movers, dehumidification equipment and certified-trained personnel are required for proper removal. Thoroughly drying the structure reduces structural damage and damage from mold and mildew, as well as rust and corrosion damage to machinery, equipment and wiring caused by high humidity levels. These tips will help you in taking the proper action until professional help is obtained and will increase the chances for a successful restoration.
Your prompt action after fire, smoke or water damage to your home or office can minimize long-term damage. The safe, timely steps that follow can assist you in restoring your property to pre-disaster condition. Incorrect action could result in additional damage.
