Our Water Damage Restoration Process
Step 1: Find the cause or source of the water damage to your property
Our team of water damage restoration specialists will thoroughly inspect your Avondale property. We will use thermal imaging equipment to locate the water sources and determine their path through the property.
Step 2: Contain and Mitigate
Our priority is to mitigate further damage to your property. We must contain and/or stop the water from continuing on its path. This might include shutting off the water supply and electricity.
Step 3: Determine the Damage
Find which areas of the property were affected by water damage, such as ceilings, walls, flooring, fixtures, and mechanical damage.
Step 4: Plan of attack
We will walk you through how our team will dry your property and what equipment we’ll use.
Step 5: Water Extraction and Drying
We use state-of-the-art equipment and technology to get your property’s structure dry. This includes truck-mounted water extraction units, vacuums, pumps, and more to remove the excess water.
Once the water is removed, our team will use air movers, desiccants, negative air fans, and dehumidifiers to ensure your property is dry.
Step 6: Remove Damaged Contents
Items that cannot be restored will be collected, packed, and removed.
Step 7: Deep Clean and Sanitize
Once your property is dry, we are ready to begin the cleanup process. Our team will use top-of-the-line antimicrobial solutions to sanitize all surfaces in your home. We will also clean and sanitize salvageable items with specialized cleaning methods and equipment.
Step 8: Property Restoration
We will work to restore your home to its pre-damage condition. Smaller projects can include replacing carpet if it is unsalvageable, repairing drywall, etc. Depending on the water damage, larger projects may require reconstruction.
Regardless of the extent of the damage, we will ensure your home is as good as new.
