How SERVPRO Helps; Water Damage

12/20/2021 (Permalink)

Central Louisiana friends, SERVPRO of Alexandria is an emergency service company that specializes in water damage. The reason that water damage is considered an emergency service is because water losses, if left unattended, can result in potentially hazardous situations. Check out this blog for more information on that. So how exactly can SERVPRO of Alexandria aid you in your time of need? We follow three main steps when we deal with water damaged property. 

Extraction

The first action we take is to remove all the standing water, if there is any, by vacuuming it out. If the need to remove furniture is required to have better access, then that would also happen during this first step. 

Demolition

When flooring, walls, or anything unmovable is far too damaged to repair, we go through the demolition process. To avoid water from affecting the structure any further in the future, demolition and reconstruction is usually the best bet. We do our best to make this as clean as possible to make it easier for a contractor to work. Baseboards may be removed to help materials such as drywall with better airflow which ultimately also helps dry in a faster manner. 

Monitoring

The third step is to monitor the drying progress daily. Our team will use state of the art equipment to dry the damaged property and measure humidity levels to make sure everything is progressing adequately. There are stubborn materials such as hardwood flooring that may require special equipment to dry properly.

Don't let it be too late! As soon as the main source of water has been stopped, don't hesitate to call SERVPRO of Alexandria at (318) 427-7511. We can satisfy all of your drying needs! Stay dry Cenla!
