Floor Restoration During Water Cleanup For Coon Rapids residents

There are considerations to make when there is excess water in the home. The longer moisture is allowed to sit, the more significant damage it can cause; being absorbed into furnishings, fabrics or wall cavities. For a homeowner, these scenarios can result in much stress as well as time off work trying to remedy the situation. We offer an efficient service that can restore your home and let you get back to your everyday life.

The primary concern for water cleanup in Coon Rapids homes is flooring. Carpets can be up to 50% weaker when wet which makes it very easy for permanent damage to occur when they come into contact with moisture. Carpet padding, the material beneath the fabric of your carpet, breaks down quickly when wet and usually needs to be replaced. SERVPRO technicians can remove the carpet, dry the upper area and dispose of the carpet padding.

For homeowners with hard floors of concrete or tile, SERVPRO adopts a different approach. The most important part of ensuring a hard floor does not cause problems further down the line is measuring the level of moisture beneath the surface, known as the subfloor. A concrete floor, which is naturally porous, can be contaminated by microbes causing mold growth. We can remedy this effect by using vacuums fitted with HEPA filters in combination with an EPA-registered disinfectant; ensuring you avoid expensive secondary issues.

Wooden flooring can warp or buckle after prolonged exposure to moisture. SERVPRO offers a quick call out time to ensure damage can be limited before it requires replacement. Using drying mats which apply suction over a larger surface area can help to draw moisture from hardwood floors and significantly reduce the likelihood of replacement. We can also use Teflon moisture meters to measure the level of moisture absorbed by a wood accurately.

There are many considerations for the restoration of property with only one right answer. Contact SERVPRO of Coon Rapids / Central Anoka County at (763) 712-9712 for expert assistance.
