Leaks, Slippery Floors, and Water Damage to Norristown Homes Cause Unsafe Conditions

Advanced Equipment Makes SERVPRO the Logical Choice for Water Removal and Recovery

Many different factors can contribute to water damage in Norristown. These factors include natural disasters, faulty household appliances, problems with the plumbing system, leaking pipes, and buildup of water in areas such as attics, crawl spaces, and basements. The sooner you notice the problem, the less the restoration work needed.
 
If you recognize signs of water damage in your Norristown home, contact SERVPRO as soon as possible. We have IICRC approved technicians ready to respond quickly to any emergency situation. Using advanced tools and products, we can restore your property to preloss conditions as fast as possible.
 
After performing a quick assessment of the water damage, we proceed with professional restoration actions. Our services may include extracting residual water or moving out furniture and other valuables to avoid further loss. Once the mitigation process is over, we begin the drying process using air movers and dehumidification equipment.
 
SERVPRO technicians rely on factors such as humidity levels, airflow, and the composition of the wet materials when choosing a particular approach. In some cases, our restoration efforts may require using heat sticks or heat mats along with the standard drying equipment. These mats are especially effective to extract moisture from hardwood flooring. We may also take on the responsibility of replacing wall and floor materials, as well as rebuilding damaged fittings.
 
For large scale water disasters, SERVPRO has a stock of fans, dehumidifiers, and other equipment that are available on demand. Our large inventory allows us to respond quickly to major incidents. Dehumidifiers lower the relative humidity by pulling water vapor from the air until every part of the structure is dry. To increase their efficiency, we heat the area if necessary to the ideal working temperatures of refrigerant dehumidifiers - between 68 degrees F and 90 degrees F.
 
In some cases, we may have to use extractors to remove water from floors and clean carpets and upholstery after water intrusion. Extractors usually come with three main components: a vacuum system, pump, and heater. All three parts come into play when restoring carpets and upholstery. Water damage mitigation, on the other hand, requires the vacuum component only to remove excess water. Depending on the nature of the damage, SERVPRO technicians can use portable or truck-mounted extractors. Portable extractors are ideal for accessing restricted areas, but truck-mounted ones are more efficient at both restorative cleaning and water removal for large volumes.
