Follow These Tips and always Look for an IICRC Certified Company.

The answer is simple, because it's the water you don't see that causes the most damage.

And, even the smallest amount of water damage has the potential to cause serious indoor air quality and structural issues to property over time.

The key to preventing expensive future restoration costs is to handle every water problem immediately and as a real threat to your property. An IICRC company will use the proper equipment and that makes a huge difference in reducing the expenses caused during a water damage loss. When time matters most, technology and equipment must be counted on to perform as it should and SERVPRO of Roanoke Rapids is trained just for that.

Tools Used by Professionals to Properly Mitigate a Loss

Here are a few tools used by out trained professionals to properly mitigate a loss;

  • Moisture Sensors – Used to detect moisture in carpets, baseboards and walls.
  • Moisture Meters – Used to determine the moisture content of various materials. The meter provides readings to accurately monitor the drying process.
  • Thermo Hygrometers – Used to measure temperature and relative humidity which calculates and creates an environment that is most conducive to drying. When handling a contaminated loss, you need to not only dry the structure, but disinfect and deodorize it.
  • Ultra-Low-Volume (ULV) Foggers – Used to atomize liquid deodorizing agents. These produce a fine mist that easily penetrates the site where odor-causing residues can accumulate. They can also be used to inject disinfectants and fungicides into walls and other hard-to-reach areas.
  • Thermal Foggers – Dispense solvent-based products and create a dense fog of tiny particles of a deodorant solution that attach to and neutralize odor causing particles.

So, the bottom line is this,  ALWAYS treat water damage seriously. If you have damage, call in an IICRC certified, professional team like SERVPRO of Roanoke Rapids. We’ll work to restore your property so you can move on with life.
