Water damage is a major concern for most homeowners. If left unchecked, it can rot out drywalls and studs, creating black mold, and might eventually weaken major structural elements like beams and joists. A burst pipe in your Everett home can have water spreading fast and get absorbed into the floor, walls, furniture, and other areas in your home.

Before restoring a property, further water damage needs to be mitigated. Failure to act fast renders the efforts to salvage the affected items useless. This calls for a team of experts, and SERVPRO provides the best water mitigation services at your Everett home.

Steps to mitigate water damage

• Inspecting and assessing the damage
• Water extraction
• Drying
• Cleaning and disinfecting

The Role of Inspection in Water Mitigation

Upon arrival, SERVPRO technicians inspect the damage and check the water to know its category. They formulate a plan to halt the spread of water and prevent it from expanding beyond its discovered state. Water can take its toll on laminate floors, carpets, hardwoods, drywall, and cabinets, and moving any wet items to a dry place is crucial as it prevents further damage. In addition, we move undamaged items to a dry and safe place to prevent them from becoming damaged.

We are well equipped with extraction equipment to ensure water is removed fast and completely. We extract water using different techniques, depending on the material or surface affected. Pulling the bulk of the water is vital as it decreases the time needed to dry the area.

Types of extractors used by our crew to remove water

• Truck-mounted vacuums
• Submersible pumps
• Portable dry/wet vacuums
