Fire & Water - Cleanup & Restoration

Advanced Technology

11/1/2018 (Permalink)

There has been a rapid advancement in the technology and techniques used in our industry. These advancements allow our professionals to restore your property back to preloss condition not only quickly but more reliably and more effectively.

An infrared camera may be used to identify water location where you are unable to see such as behind walls and under flooring which in turn helps for thorough water removal. Moisture detectors such as a hygrometer measure the extent of moisture saturation.

Once our professionals have located the source of the moisture we then use powerful extraction equipment to speed the drying process. Submersible and gas-powered pumps are used for continuous pumping of high-level water. Truck-mounted and portable extraction units perform efficient water removal. 

After our professionals have extracted all the excess water that's when the drying equipment comes into play. Our professionals use industrial strength air movers which cause moisture to evaporate at a faster pace and dehumidifiers which pull the water vapor from the air.

After all this has been done our professionals use machines that remove airborne contaminants and control the air quality such as air scrubbers, thermal foggers, and deodorization agents. Our professionals may also need to use OSHA-approved cleaning agents to help remove odors and/or contaminants on your property such as deodorization products which control odors from excessive moisture and disinfection products which stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, mildew, and other harmful microorganisms.

If you want your property returned to preloss condition trust the professionals at SERVPRO of Burlington. We have the right equipment and techniques to get the job done.
