Call SERVPRO For Water Removal Damage in Fridley
The extraction of standing water in Fridley involves its removal, including removing moisture from a water damaged area. This process requires a number of innovative style equipment, trained technicians, and experience. The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (“IICRC”) designs industry programs for all types of water extraction systems. IICRC ensures that restoration companies are well trained in all aspects of water removal.
Removing water requires knowing the type of surface involved. When water damage occurs at a home due to a faulty washing machine or a burst pipe, people believe that they can clean it up themselves. However, what they can't see until later, is that their drywall begins to buckle, floors start cupping, or even worse, there is a smell of mildew. Our Fridley water damage technicians can use moisture readers to identify hidden spots and dry them out.
When a flood causes water damage, there are a couple of concerns. First, the structural integrity of your property is crucial. For instance, if a multi-tiered home has damage from standing water on upper floors, water can cause the floor to collapse down onto the levels below. For walls, it's 2 x 4's which support its frame can decay, causing the walls to sag and lose their ability to provide support. The second concern is the growth of toxic mold. This contaminant can begin growing within 24 hours to 10 days at temperatures, 77 to 86 °F (25 to 30 °C), although growth can occur between 32 and 95 °F (0 and 35 °C).
