Water damage can be a starting point for many other serious problems that can effect a building, damage personal property and create serious health hazards for the occupants.

Restoring your property and protecting your families health requires a professional restoration contractor to carefully manage the project. They need to be knowledgeable in several disciplines… stopping bacteria from spreading, preventing mold and mildew growth, preventing unnecessary secondary damage, plus preserving the structure and its contents.

Often water will flow down the inside of wall cavities. It is also possible for standing water to wick up a wall. Unless water stains appear, this moisture can go undetected until mold and odor problems occur. This is the primary reason a professional technician is equipped with instruments to detect and locate wet areas before the drying process begins. Professional restoration requires more than just drying wet carpets.

During sewage backups or other “black water situations”, substantial amounts of bacteria enter the interior environment of the structure and pose potentially serious health risks to the occupants. In fact, the bacteria introduced into the structure can remain active for up to one month if left untreated.  We employ advanced restoration methods to rid the structure of all traces of sewage and make the structure clean and safe for occupancy.
