SERVPRO Combines Regular and Advanced Water Removal Resources to Handle Different Source

Water intrusion is a serious concern at any commercial establishment since it damages materials and causes various hazards, including slippery floors. Removing the intruding water is one of the crucial steps in restoring preloss conditions at your Santa Clarita premises.

The approach you use for water removal from your Santa Clarita property can vary depending on the water volumes involved. Another crucial reason is the entry method since the water damaging your property can originate from different sources. SERVPRO has a variety of resources to manage removal under different circumstances.

Water intrusion can originate from:

• Wall leaks, especially around openings like doors and windows.
• Roof leaks from penetrations or because of flashing errors
• Plumbing leaks from faulty joints or burst pipes

Of the three typical sources, plumbing issues can be highly destructive if they remain undiscovered over time or when a significant amount of water leaks into the property. A plumbing leak can be easily stopped by turning off the main valves, unlike the other sources, which require elaborate efforts such as building a containment.

When the source is a wall or roof leak, the main issue is wet materials. Therefore, drying resources such as air movers and dehumidifiers are essential. Plumbing leaks, on the other hand, can leave water pooling around the property. Sufficient extraction power is necessary before thinking of drying the property.

Some aspects of water removal are standard in most cases like:

• Supplying heating for sustained drying
• Controlled demolition to remove deteriorated materials
• Dehumidification to finish the process

SERVPRO teams have sufficient air movers and dehumidifiers to ensure these processes run without hitches. Appropriate placement of the equipment also helps deliver better outcomes.
