when suffering a water damage problem, a quick response is the most critical course of action. Where abnormal moisture is present, microorganisms will rapidly multiply and cause structural damage, create odors, and cause health issues to those occupying the building or home. The solution is what we call a restorative drying process.

Controlled drying is where we bring in drying equipment to dry out your home or business in a non evasive way. This is a very aggressive drying process; basically we speed up Mother Nature. We first extract all the standing water possible and remove it from your site. We then control the temperature and accelerate the evaporation process. We do this with a multitude of strategically place air movers. With the water evaporating (simply we turn a liquid into a gas) we then use heavy duty commercial grade dehumidifies to remove the evaporated water. Too much evaporation with out dehumidification will cause secondary damage in you home or business. We try to get your structure to 40% relative humidity with in 24 hours. This process can take up to 5 days.

Selective replacement, unfortunately not everything can be saved or dried in time. Sometimes, for different reasons some things will be damaged beyond repair. They must be restored or replaced. Water losses are broken down into 3 categories.

Category 1: Water from a clean source, like broken pipes.
Category 2: Water is not as clean and has a significant degree of contamination. Like soapy water from a dish washer or a toilet over flow or rain water filtered through soils.
Category 3: water is grossly unsanitary. Like sewage.

These classes will determine which of your valuables can be saved. The ammount of water and the length of time the water has been within the structure will determine the means of action. Thats why we pledge a quick response.
What ever your situation we have the experience and expertise to bring you back to normal. We will work with you and your insurance company no matter the category of loss. We know that this would be a very trying time for you and will help in any way we can. Whether its a category 1,2 or 3.if you need structural repair, like drywall, painting, new pad or carpet we can help meet your needs.
