Water Removal After a Storm
8/23/2022 (Permalink)
SERVPRO can't stop water from rising out of rivers and creeks, but we do have the experience and training in water removal to help you lessen the effects of flood damage. Our personnel are among the most skilled in the field of disaster restoration, and we maintain an extensive inventory of specialized equipment to return to its original state as quickly as possible.
Since water damage can occur within minutes (paper goods and some fabrics), we maintain a 24-hour removal team that can arrive as quickly as possible to begin the process. If the power has not been restored or if your electrical system has been compromised, we also have a large number of generators at our disposal so we can begin extracting.
When the standing water has been removed, there is still the problem of trapped moisture. Our recovery team will deploy equipment to forcibly circulate air through your home. Once that has started, dehumidifiers are placed in key areas to increase the effectiveness of the specialized fans. To ensure carpet pads are dried completely, we may also use a number of heaters designed to not burn carpeting. These heaters are also excellent to help prevent wood floors from warping.
Like all of the company franchises, SERVPRO of Bath is locally owned and operated. Residents aren't just our customers, they're our neighbors and family. Call us at 252-923-7205 when you need emergency assistance.
