Storm Damage

7/8/2022 (Permalink)

Storms have been rolling across Iowa the past few weeks. Damages from wind and rain to your house or business can be extensive. SERVPRO of Burlington can assess the damage and begin to restore your property

Service work begins with a thorough extraction of water. This helps prevent the spread of water in the structure and reduces drying time. Typically, hundreds or thousands of gallons of water are removed using powerful pumps and extraction units during the water removal process.

Some materials cannot be successfully restored. These materials are typically removed as soon as possible to expedite the drying of all restorable materials.

Water damage can create cleaning, sanitizing, or deodorization needs for floors, furniture, and other personal belongings. SERVPRO professionals use a variety of specially formulated products, industry-leading equipment, and proven techniques to accomplish this important aspect of restoration.

After water you can see has been removed, our specialists use industry-leading drying equipment to remove the water you can’t see. This will remove water within materials to bring these materials back to their normal moisture level. The type and amount of equipment is based on your unique situation and industry standards.

During the drying process, our specialists will want to visit your property daily to help ensure materials are drying properly, check drying equipment performance, and make changes as needed. This monitoring process is critical to effective and efficient drying of your property.

After these steps, your home may need construction work to get your property back to its pre loss condition. The repair step can be minor repairs or rebuilding entire areas of your home. We can simplify the restoration process by handling both the initial damage mitigation and rebuilding the affected areas. Having one qualified company for the entire process can save time and keeps costs low. Call SERVPRO of Burlington 319-754-8050!
