What Water Damage Mitigation Steps Help Orlando Homes?

5/20/2021 (Permalink)

Water can affect all areas of your home. SERVPRO has the tools and equipment to locate hidden moisture and correct the issue.

Fast Action Prevents the Spread of Water Damage Effects to the Rest of an Orlando Property

Before any of our SERVPRO water restoration technicians (WRT) can create designated workspaces for desiccants and other drying tools to work, we must first establish where moisture has migrated and the current scope of the damage to the property. Dampness and moisture detection often relies on a combination of instruments, including:

• Surface moisture meter
• Hygrometers
• Thermal imagery

Creating a Drying Zone for Efficient Water Damage Restoration

Using containment measures with the established moisture boundaries, we have the appropriate starting point for water damage mitigation in Orlando homes. By creating a drying zone using plastic sheeting and other non-physical barriers, we can stop the spread of moisture to different materials and areas. This process also gives our SERVPRO team a better grasp of regulating drying principles like humidity, temperature, and airflow in this confined space.

Between initial water damage mitigation steps and the water damage repairs often necessary after moisture exposure, we have skilled professionals ready to help when you need it. Our SERVPRO of South Orange County response team is prepared 24/7 at (407) 226-2621.
