Residents of Milton Call SERVPRO to Return Their Homes to a Dry, Safe State
What Can Homeowners Expect Once a Restoration Team Arrives?
SERVPRO begins every Milton restoration task with a dual approach: A complete inspection while removing any standing water with pumps. With most interior water spills from a failed appliance or a split pipe, the water is not contaminated, so our restoration teams can concentrate on removal.
Does Removal Fix the Problem?
Not completely. To further reduce the effects of water damage in Milton homes, our specialists also need to use extraction wands. These devices are smaller than pumps and ideal for drawing out water trapped in carpets and floorboards.
How Does SERVPRO Stop Further Damage When the Water Sat for a Long Period?
To prevent the permanent warping of flooring or the cracking and splitting of drywall and other paneling, our specialists set up several key pieces of equipment that draw or force out water from surfaces without touching them.
- Pedestal fans pull damp air out of the home and force it outside. This action provides a drier atmosphere, which not only increases natural evaporation but also augments the other equipment.
- Air Movers generate a warm airflow that specialists direct over the affected physical and structural property surfaces. They can use the devices to even direct it up to dry water-logged ceiling tiles. They can adjust the temperature to dry property without causing any further damage.
- Dehumidifiers allow our specialists to draw moisture from the air and surrounding property. This action helps not just lower humidity but also helps the air movers to operate more efficiently.
