Understanding Water Damage Restoration Services

What Do Water Damage Restoration Services Include?  

When your property has faced water damage, it’s not just about removing water or drying up moisture—although these steps are important, too. At 1-800 WATER DAMAGE, we understand what’s needed to restore your property to its pre-damage state. Our wide-ranging  water damage restoration services will vary for every property and every situation, but can include:

Before we start with any treatment, we inspect your property to determine the full scope of damage. For example, if water damage has occurred from sewage overflow or as a result of fire-fighting efforts, we offer additional services to aid with cleanup.   

Water Damage Restoration and Your Property 

So, how do water damage restoration services impact your property? How can they help prevent further damage? Here are a few crucial ways that it can make a difference: 

  • We remove standing water and contaminated water. The longer that water remains inside your property, the more contaminated it’s likely to become—and the more damage it can cause to your property. We swiftly remove any remaining water in your home. 
  • Our team can dry up soggy surfaces and moisture below surfaces. Our team thoroughly dries both visible surfaces and hidden moisture beneath them, helping prevent issues like mold growth and structural damage.
  • Technicians can look for and treat mold. Mold is one of the many hazards of water damage events. We take rapid action to reduce the likelihood of mold’s spread. If it’s already present inside a space, our technicians are trained in proven mold removal processes. 
  • We can repair surfaces and subsurfaces. When surfaces and structural components of your property are damaged, they’re weaker. We take steps to repair cosmetic and structural damage, returning your property to its pre-loss condition as soon as possible.
