Count on SERVPRO® for Water Removal in Gaithersburg

Handling the clean-up after a water intrusion incident alone can be stressful. If you do not remove excess moisture quickly enough, it can cause problems like wood rotting and mold growth. After a water intrusion mishap, you need to contact a company with experience in water restoration.

SERVPRO has expertise in repairing losses resulting from water. We are skilled in performing water removal in Gaithersburg homes. Our specialized water restoration services employ cleaning methods that guarantee the complete removal of all water and moisture from damaged buildings. Essentially, water removal prevents further damage.

Our SERVPRO water restoration technicians (WRTs) do this before we get to the restoration step to contain the amount of loss a property has sustained. The process includes the following steps:

• A risk assessment identifies potential hazards and establishes the extent of damage.
• Preserving the home's structural integrity.
• Removing salvageable contents from the property.
• Extracting water from the building to prevent further spread and damage.

Our SERVPRO team can use pumps to extract standing water and self-propelled extraction tools to remove water from carpets. An independent motor powers these tools, and it moves the units over carpeting at a consistent rate. The tools compress carpets and pads, squeeze out the water, and remove it through an extractor's vacuum system.

After we remove water, we start the water damage restoration process, which involves repairing a property to its preloss condition. The severity of the damage determines the restoration we need to perform. In some situations, setting up drying and dehumidification equipment is enough to dry a property out sufficiently. Careful monitoring is required to ensure the process is expedited, thereby diminishing further damage to the structural elements or its contents.

In other cases, cutting out drywall or removing carpets and carpet padding is necessary. We may also apply antimicrobial products to prevent mold infestation. Restoration may also include removing ruined materials from the affected areas. SERVPRO can take all the necessary steps to restore your home to a preloss state.
