Why Drying Your Bow Residence After Water Damage Quickly Is Essential
One problem that property owners dread is water damage. Water can cause costly destruction to wood furniture, electronics, flooring, upholstery, plumbing equipment, and household appliances. Some common causes of water loss in homes are leaky dishwashers, overflowing washing machines, broken pipes, and leaky water heaters. Water intrusion can escalate mold and bacterial growth issues in a few days, compromising the health of the inhabitants of your home.
You need quick structural drying to restore your water damaged home in Bow to its normal condition with minimal money and time put into the restoration process. Rapid structural drying employs specific principles to dry a building effectively and quickly. The principles of applied structural drying (ASD) include:
Rapid drying
The priority is to get the water out of a home. Our SERVPRO team uses powerful pumps to extract the water. Depending on contamination potential and origin, we can extract water from carpets and other materials without having to remove them. We use vacuum squeegees to remove water from hard surfaces and structural cavity drying systems to dry moisture, which has spread to hard-to-reach areas. Thorough extraction reduces drying time and limits the chance of furniture stains and rust.
Reducing humidity
When high humidity spreads throughout a house, it exacerbates water damage by causing secondary destruction to areas water has not contacted. We can use centrifugal air movers to remove water vapor from your home and high-volume dehumidifiers to dry circulating air.
Continuous monitoring
Our crew takes measurements throughout the home at scheduled intervals during the drying process. We use non-penetrating and penetrating moisture meters to take spot measurements and moisture sensors to detect moisture in carpets and padding. We also use thermohygrometers to measure the relative humidity and temperature of air masses. We set drying goals by taking moisture content readings of dry materials in areas without water exposure. Precise measurements provide our ASD technicians with the necessary data to confirm when drying goals have been achieved.
Our drying process takes every building element into account, ensuring that you get over the water intrusion incident quickly and resume your normal life. Getting your home dried speedily also helps reduce restoration expenses. It can minimize your insurance claims, and this can keep your premiums from increasing. Our technicians know how water exposure affects various materials negatively. That means that after assessing your home, we know what the job entails and can apply efficient practices from the beginning to ensure savings.
Fast-drying also reduces replacement expenses since you are less likely to replace valuable contents or structural components of your home. Homeowner’s insurance policies provide coverage for most water loss incidents. SERVPRO works with all insurance providers, and we can assist you in filing the paperwork for a hassle-free claims process.
