Water Damage Restoration
Our water damage restoration service addresses all categories of water intrusion, from clean water leaks to contaminated sewage backups. Using thermal imaging and moisture meters, we identify hidden moisture in structural materials. Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers dry affected areas while our antimicrobial treatments prevent microbial growth. We document the entire process for insurance purposes.
Sewage Backup Cleanup
Specialized sewage remediation follows strict safety protocols for Category 3 water situations. We remove contaminated materials, disinfect affected areas with EPA-registered solutions, and restore structural integrity. Our technicians wear full PPE during cleanup and provide air quality testing post-restoration to ensure habitability.
Insurance Claim Restoration
We streamline insurance claims by providing detailed damage assessments and digital documentation. Our team coordinates with adjusters, maintains itemized records, and provides dryness certification required by most insurers. This service covers all phases from emergency mitigation through final reconstruction.
Mold Remediation
Our mold remediation process includes containment setup, HEPA vacuuming, antimicrobial application, and structural drying. We follow IICRC S520 standards for mold remediation and provide post-remediation testing. Air scrubbers maintain indoor air quality during the removal process.
Structural Drying
Advanced structural drying uses psychrometric calculations to determine optimal equipment placement. We employ industrial air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers to dry framing, subflooring, and insulation. Moisture readings track progress until optimal dryness levels are achieved, preventing future damage.
