The Steps

The first thing we look for is the shut off valve for the water supply. This will include stopping the flow of water to a flooded area, fixing leakage in the roof, and removing furniture from an area that is flooded. The faster one can prevent more water in the building the better.

Secondly, we will trace the severity of water damage in the area. Inspecting all the walls, floors, and ceilings when it comes to staining or saturation resulting from water. Stand in the area where it is wet and if the room has a moldy smell that will form in as little as 48 hours of water spillage. Inform you about any problems with wiring or electrical connections, or any softness in floors that might be symptomatic of some deep structural problem.

The Right Team

Employ a certified commercial water damage firm for the assessment, documentation of the loss and commencement of drying and restoration. Instead of hiring general restoration contractors, all types of loss should be referred to an experienced mitigation company. Water loss calls for structural drying and mold management, and the use of high-volume air moving machines in water extraction. Mitigation crew members will use moisture meter and infrared camera to determine the wetness level and guarantee all affected areas are dried to remove possibility of fungal development. Structural drying requires installation of commercial dehumidification equipment and treatment of porous material with anti-microbial. In cases of huge water damage or flood, they may be required to tear out the damaged dry wall and insulation and reinstall new ones once the structure of the walls is dried up. There also may be wall and floor coverings and could also involve removal and replacement of new ones.

The structural drying process usually takes from several days or up to one or more weeks based upon the level of saturation in the given building.
