When You Need Water Damage Repair in Seattle, SERVPRO® Can Help

Water intrusion is a problem that many homeowners face. It may cause a lot of damage, and lead to stress. Professionals can tackle water damage very well to ensure that there is no indication that a house was flooded.

While every case of water damage is unique, SERVPRO has come up with basic steps upon which we train our technicians to provide the most efficient service to our customers. To perform water damage repair in your Seattle residence, we can take steps outlined below:

• Water extraction
• Drying and dehumidification
• Cleaning and sanitization
• Restoration

Water extraction

After we assess the damage, SERVPRO technicians remove the water using powerful water pumps or vacuums. This helps to prevent the spread of the damage to other areas. Our technicians can use moisture sensors to detect water in areas that are hard to access but may still contain water which needs to be dried.

Drying and dehumidification

We dry wet items, and surfaces using air movers and dehumidifiers. The air that touches a saturated material like carpeting has high humidity. Air moving equipment introduces airflow at the surface level and replaces the highly saturated air with drier air to expedite evaporation. Our SERVPRO crew positions enough air movers to create airflow across every wet surface.

If the lower part of several walls is wet and involves damp drywall behind baseboards, we position enough air movers to create a vortex of circular airflow around the walls. Our team can also use desiccant dehumidifiers to dehumidify the building.

Cleaning and sanitization

We clean all the affected items. We also sanitize the building using sanitizers and antimicrobials to prevent growth of mold, which is a health hazard.

Rebuilding

Restoring your house to preloss condition includes performing repairs, like repainting and replacing drywall panels. SERVPRO technicians provide the services required in restoring affected contents and structures into their former state, giving your house its normal splendor.
