Water Damage and Restoration: What You Should Know | SERVPRO® of Beaver County
1/20/2022 (Permalink)
Every single day, an average of 14,000 Americans experience some type of water damage in the home. If you find yourself a part of that unfortunate statistic, let SERVPRO go to work for you.
At SERVPRO, we understand emergencies happen—and when they do, you need help NOW. That’s why we are available 24⁄7 and spring into action quickly.
When you’re dealing with water damage, here’s what you can expect from your SERVPRO team:
Emergency Contact. When you make the call to our specialists, we will ask questions to get a quick understanding of your emergency and set up an appointment to come and review the damage in person. Quick response time can help ease your mind, but it can also help your pocketbook.
Inspection and Water Damage Assessment. When our technicians show up at your home, they immediately get to work. They ensure that the water has been turned off at the source, then assess the damage in your home, identifying all potential hazards. From there, they determine a path forward and review the plan with you.
Water Removal. The first step is water extraction. We use powerful pumps and extraction units that can remove hundreds or thousands of gallons of water at a time. By completely ridding your home of standing water, we can help reduce drying times and limit mold growth.
Damaged Material Removal. When water impacts your home, it touches everything from the building structure to your possessions. Our goal is always to restore when possible, but some items may be irretrievably damaged. Those items will be removed from the home to allow for quicker drying of what’s staying behind.
Cleaning, Sanitizing and Deodorization. Any water that sits for a period of time can become stinky and unhealthy. That’s why we offer time-tested techniques to restore your belongings and remove the effects of water damage, including odors.
Drying. Once the bulk of water has been removed, there can still be some that eludes the eye. Excess moisture must be removed before it causes an issue like mold growth. We bring in cutting-edge equipment to return moisture levels to normal.
Monitoring. While your home dries, we will continue to monitor your home, staying in constant contact with daily visits to make sure the drying process is productive and thorough.
Repairs and Construction. Once the water is gone, the restoration begins. In some cases, you may need only minor repair work, but in others, a large-scale construction job may be needed. We can handle both ends of the spectrum.
When water damage strikes, make the call to SERVPRO for A-to-Z cleanup and restoration. We’ll make your damaged property look “Like it never even happened."
