Steps R &S Restores takes when performing water mitigation
When you see water or water damage in your home or basement it can be stressful. Even more so when it is sewage. You may have a lot of questions and be unsure if you need professional water mitigation services. R & S Restores can help. We will use a combination of visual inspection and moisture meters to determine the best course of action to dry and clean your property to help prevent further damage.
Initial steps in the mitigation process
Dry Down plan and Removal of Moisture
Our IICRC trained technicians will come out and begin our drying plan for the affected area of your property. This is done through:
-
Water Extraction
-
Removal of wet carpet pad and carpet
-
Removal of molding and toe kicks
-
Removal of wet insulation
-
Removal of wet drywall, panel, or flooring when needed
-
Treatment of affected area with non-harmful plant based anti-microbial agents
-
Placement of professional water mitigation equipment
-
When sewage is involved most building materials can not be salvaged
We will then test the affected area to ensure moisture levels have retuned to pre-loss levels
Most dry downs will require mitigation equipment to be left onsite for three to five days. During this time we may need to inspect the property to insure proper drying and equipment placement.
If a claim is made we will prepare an estimate and work with your insurance company to try and relive as much stress as possible
Estimates are not required to start and perform emergency mitigation services. Most insurance policies have language that requires to take actions to mitigate damages ASAP. When dealing with insurance companies we do not set our own prices. We use estimating programs requested by insurance companies. If you are in need of repairs after water damage we can help and prepare an estimate for that as well click here for more information.
