Enlist SERVPRO for Your Bay Ridge Water Damage Management

The driving rain or rising groundwater characteristic of storms can leave your Bay Ridge property inundated. Such water accumulation creates several problems, which at the very least, diminish comfort or extreme cases, create hazards. If it's your first time handling water restoration, you may not know how challenging the process might become. However, a seasoned professional like SERVPRO readily understands the problem and thus can help you prepare well to tackle it.

Even if it is your first time handling water restoration at your Bay Ridge property, some of the necessary actions are not difficult to deduce. For example, you cannot leave water pooling on the floors within your property, so a response such as mopping the affected areas comes naturally. SERVPRO crews take the same steps, but we use superior techniques and equipment to improve the outcomes.

How we improve ordinary restoration actions

• Ensuring timely water extraction
• Cleaning all areas to sanitary levels
• Expediting and closely monitoring drying processes

When restoring a property, the speed of water removal is as essential as completeness because stagnation promotes microbial growth, which can lead to mold infestation. Such contamination can start in as little as 48 hours, so completing extraction and starting drying before this period elapses is essential. Our crews use vacuum extractors to fast-track water removal. We can also use specialized equipment such as drying mats which remove water-trapped breath tiles or wooden floorboards.

Unseen Issues Can Hamper Restoration

Storms can soil your property by depositing silt and mud inside. There are also invisible pollutants dissolved in the water, which might remain even physically eliminating the visible soils. The contaminants may be hazardous or emit unpleasant odors compromising indoor air quality.

Specialized tasks for complete restoration

• Decontamination
• Deodorization to eliminate
