Our Process

  1. 1

    Initial Assessment

    We begin by evaluating the extent of water damage using moisture meters and thermal imaging inspection to map out affected areas precisely.

  2. 2

    Water Extraction

    High-powered vacuums are used to remove standing water quickly, especially in basement areas where full extraction is critical before drying begins.

  3. 3

    Drying and Dehumidifying

    With the use of air movers and dehumidifiers, we ensure that the moisture content is reduced to prevent further structural issues and mold growth.

  4. 4

    Monitoring

    We maintain daily drying logs, monitoring relative humidity and moisture meter readings to ensure efficient progress in reaching the drying goals.

  5. 5

    Final Sanitization

    Lastly, we apply antimicrobial treatments to affected areas, ensuring that any potential sources of secondary damage or contamination are neutralized.
