Water Removal Los Gatos – Avoid Damage to Structures
3/20/2020 (Permalink)
Water damage to your Los Gatos home has more to it than you realize.
Clients occasionally try to avoid removing moisture from their homes. Perhaps the household is too busy to deal with the disruption. Many are not aware of the potential damage that can be caused by water and moisture if the source is not removed and the structure dried. Some are concerned about the cost of having their home checked for moisture and the subsequent work needed to dry the home and make repairs.
SERVPRO provides water removal, moisture mitigation, and restoration services in Los Gatos and the surrounding areas. Our service people live in the community and follow IICRC standards for water removal and restoration. We work closely with your insurance company adjuster and can help with much of the administrative work associated with a claim. Our trucks, equipment, and technicians are available 24 / 7, and in most situations, we are on-site in less than 4 hours from the time of your call.
Long Term Exposure Can Cause Damage
Structural portions of your home exposed to water and moisture for an extended period may become infested with mold, the structure may lose support capabilities, and your family may experience health-related issues from mold even if it is inside walls. Mold begins multiplying after 48 hours. Why take a chance, call SERVPRO for professional help and avoid more expensive solutions later?
Address water leaks inside your home immediately. Repair the leak and begin efforts to remove pooled water. Mops and pails can help to remove much of the water, but clients should consider professional help, once moisture migrates into carpeting, underpadding, and inside walls.
SERVPRO can utilize weighted extractors to remove water from carpets and underpadding. Directed air movers can force air inside walls through small holes. We cut these small holes to force air into the wall or cavity to dry the area. We utilize moisture meters and infrared cameras to detect moisture inside walls and hard to reach crevices. We can dry your floor materials, walls, and structure quickly to avoid long term issues.
