Professional Water Restoration by SERVPRO Is Based on Convenience and Efficiency

Water damage affects structural materials and contents indiscriminately. However, a procedure approach is necessary when responding to such an incident to ensure a satisfactory outcome. Proper planning also helps improve time and cost management.

Responding to water damage at your Concord premises means handling processes such as removing any water pooling in the premises, drying wet materials, and cleaning or rebuilding and refinishing any deteriorating structural parts. Ensuring you have the right resources or involving a professional like SERVPRO is essential when managing such damage.

Some crucial considerations include:

• Whether there are enough restoration equipment
• Whether there are enough people to handle restoration
• Whether appropriate site management resources are accessible

Water readily spreads over vast areas through gravitational flow, evaporation, or wicking through materials. Containing widespread damage takes more than one unit of each restoration equipment. For instance, every 70 square feet of wet flooring requires an air mover unit to dry. If it is a wall, an air mover is necessary for every 150 square feet. Other equipment such as dehumidifiers and water extractors are also subject to their unique coverage requirements. So it would be best if you considered whether you have sufficient equipment before attempting a restoration.

Human input is necessary when managing moisture damage. Having enough people to tackle different tasks is essential. Also, the training of these individuals matters. All members of the SERVPRO team handling the damage at your premises are IICRC certified so that you can expect better water removal, structural drying, and cleaning of the premises to sanitary levels.

After the damage from water intrusion, your facility needs proper management to avoid clutter and hazards. It would help if you evaluated whether you have the necessary site management resources before starting restoration.

Some useful site management resources include:

• Portable storage units
• Trash cans for waste management
• Safety signs such as wet floor signs
