Whenever you have water damage in your North Kingston home, it is vital to remove the water in a timely fashion.

SERVPRO can handle any type of water damage and restore your home back to its original condition.

What's Involved With the Water Removal Process?

Water removal services are vital to ensure that all living organisms are safely removed from your home and the structural integrity of your house is still intact.

In most cases, materials saturated in water should be removed and replaced in order for your house to dry properly.

Below are the basic steps for the water removal process:
    •    Containment: Contaminated areas from water damage should be sealed off with plastic barriers to protect unaffected areas.
    •    Removal: In most cases, water extraction pumps and extractors are used for water removal, then a variety of applications are utilized to ensure adequate drying and cleaning.
    •    Clean-Up: The cleanup process for water damage may include the removal of flooring materials, drywall, insulation, and other damaged components.
    •    Drying: Once the cleanup process is complete, it's important to use commercial dryers or large fans to completely dry water-damaged areas.
