Water Removal And Dehumidification
Following flood damage in Stockton homes, the priority is to restore the affected property to its original condition as quickly as possible. Water or flood damage can compromise the structure and integrity of your home if the cleanup process is not handled by experts in restoration. The process should focus on minimizing secondary damage efficiently and effectively, as well as limiting disruption for the homeowner.
If your property is affected by a flood, either from a natural disaster or a plumbing problem, you can count on SERVPRO for emergency restoration services. We are available 24/7 to offer advice on cleaning up after a flood. Our staff and technicians use IICRC-certified methods to reverse water damage in the house and dry the structure in emergency situations.
It is important to contain the damage closing off the affected area as soon as possible. This is designed to prevent outside air and other elements that may add humidity to the space. It is equally important to eliminate the moisture as fast as possible. In most cases, this can be achieved by adding heat to the room.
SERVPRO water removal experts use a combination of various techniques to keep the water from penetrating deep into floors, walls, furniture and other parts of the building. In the event of underfloor water damage, it is usually necessary to replace the wet insulation under the flooring. This work is time-consuming and may keep the room virtually useless until the repair work completes.
However, in many instances, SERVPRO staff can use an advanced dehumidifier to boost heat to the process. This also helps to reduce the need for tearing up the flooring and saves a lot of money. The process involves feeding hot dry air underneath the floor using ducts from the dehumidifiers.
Water damage to your flooring can be costly and an inconvenience. If there is a flood in the house, SERVPRO of Stockton can provide quick and efficient water removal services. We are available 24/7, every day of the week. Call us anytime at (209) 477-3090.
