Early SERVPRO Water Mitigation in Seminole Homes
4/23/2023 (Permalink)
What Water Mitigation Steps Happen First?
When your home suffers water damage, you have only a finite window to clean and restore the property before greater harm results. We understand the urgency and the window of opportunity to complete mitigation and emergency services. Certain actions must happen before the rest of the restoration process to save you time and money on the work to come.
Effective Mitigation Happens in Stages
We steer water mitigation in Seminole properties by knowing the needed actions to help. Our SERVPRO professionals thoroughly inspect the house to learn where water damage exists, what materials are salvageable, and the pressing concerns that mitigation must address. The mitigation and emergency services we conduct can get broken into several parts:
- Water Removal Services – The first step in mitigating water damage effects is removing standing water from the floors of your house. Vacuums and pumps offer quick solutions for extraction.
- Content Recovery Solutions – Early actions by our SERVPRO team also focus on protecting what matters most to the customer. Personal belongings and contents can be relocated from the damaged area. Some might also require packing and transporting to our nearby warehouse for cleaning and temporary storage.
- Controlled Demolition and Repairs – Water damage can severely damage structural integrity. Controlled demolition can remove sagging and destroyed material to allow for quick access with drying equipment.
- Mold Prevention – We utilize products in our inventory, like sporicidal agents, to make wet surfaces uninhabitable to migrating mold spores. Reducing mold growth keeps secondary damage from developing and complicating restoration.
Mitigation is one of the most crucial components of our complete restoration process. The early actions our team can take to secure your home, protect its contents, and reduce further damage are the priority. Call SERVPRO of Seminole & Central Gulf Beaches at (727) 391-6212.
