The Water Damage Restoration Process
SERVPRO of Bay St. Louis/Diamondhead has a well trained team and advanced equipment to restore your home or business after a water loss of any size. Even though each water damage event is a little different from the last, we follow the same process that has been proven to provide great results!
Inspection: We always start with sending a production manager to the property to asses the damage. This helps us fully understand the severity of the damage, note any hazards, determine what can be restored, and come up with a plan.
Water Removal: The work begins with extracting the water to reduce the spread of damage and drying time. Our pumps can remove hundreds or thousands of gallons of water.
Removing Damaged Material: If any material cannot be restored, we will communicate that to the property owner and then remove it to expedite the drying process.
Cleaning and Deodorization: Water damage often leads to a need of cleaning and deodorizing floors, furniture, etc. Our team has specially formulated products, equipment, and techniques to insurer quality results.
Drying: Once the majority of the water is removed, we bring in equipment to remove the water that you can not see. The main benefit is to bring materials in the space back to their normal moisture level.
Monitoring: During the drying process, our technicians will visit your property daily to make sure things are properly drying and to make changes as needed.
