SERVPRO Professionally Restores Your Water Damaged Home in Fort Mill
When your home in Fort Mill has suffered a natural disaster, water damage is typically the outcome. In many cases, residential property owners grow frantic as they attempt to clean up the damage, work with their insurance company, and keep family members safe and calm. However, it's important to know that you can limit and even eliminate anxiety and economic strain by hiring a professional water restoration company like SERVPRO to help you with damage control. Here are just a few of the many helpful services that we can offer you.
Water Removal
The top priority of a water damage restoration company like SERVPRO is water removal. Excess water is both dangerous and inconvenient for many reasons. Standing water can adversely affect the structural integrity of your property. Water absorption into porous materials like wood furniture, wood framing and flooring and drywall not only weakens the house, but can create an ideal environment for mold spores to grow and thrive. To eliminate these unwanted consequences, water damage restoration experts use low-tech (mops) and high-tech (powerful water pumps and wet-vacs) methodologies to extract unwanted water.
Evaporation: Eliminate Excessive Moisture and Humidity
Each drop of water that invades your property following a fire, leak or flood cannot be extracted using high powered industrial pumps. SERVPRO uses advanced evaporation techniques to get rid of the water. The evaporation process involves air movers which are high-velocity types of fans, and dehumidifiers for the final work. Moisture meters and thermohygrometers will measure the final moisture levels and temperatures of the affected areas, and you will receive written documentation of the results.
As our water restoration experts are removing excess water, they will move forward with a detailed inspection. This inspection will include fully documenting the depth and scope of the damages and providing you with an inventory list of items and materials that are salvageable or not. After this information is obtained, the remediation specialists will be able to devise a customized restoration plan to get your possessions and property back in pre-water damaged condition. Our IICRC-certified technicians possess the extensive education and experience necessary to complete this task. Additionally, the remediation experts will be able to provide you with a timeframe for completion of your home restoration.
Throughout the water damage restoration process, our experts carefully evaluate and monitor remediation procedures to ensure that each step is completed correctly. You are invited to participate in a final walk-thru once the entire service is completed.
