Water Damage Repair in New Brunswick Calls for Experienced Restorers Like SERVPRO

Any water source has the potential to ruin a home. Outside of your plumbing fixtures and pipes, you should not expose most parts of a home to water for too long. At SERVPRO, we are determined to provide skilled technicians and equipment to deal with water damage in your home.

Repairs for the damage the water leakage caused should begin 24-48 hours after you notice the leak. We are fully equipped to perform water damage mitigation in your New Brunswick home. The steps that our SERVPRO technicians can take to mitigate water damage include:

• Determining the areas that may hide moisture.
• Extracting the water.
• Cleaning affected structures and contents.
• Drying the affected areas.

Moisture Inspection

Moisture content may significantly alter your home's interior environment, which may pose health risks and affect building materials. At SERVPRO, we use moisture meters to determine the actual moisture levels in affected materials.

Water Extraction

We can use suitable pumps to extract water from your residence. When the standing water is two inches or deeper and does not have solid materials, our crew can remove it using submersible pumps with adequate volume and lift capacity. We often use centrifugal pumps, which convert rational energy from a motor to energy to move liquids.

Cleaning Affected Structures and Contents.

We provide the residential cleaning services that our customers request, or the necessary ones. Our SERVPRO technicians can use industrial cleaners to clean and disinfect the affected surfaces, eliminating microorganisms.

Drying Process

After extracting water, the time required to dry a home is based on the restorers' ability to evaporate the remaining water. Our SERVPRO restorers understand psychometry, and we can create and manage an efficient drying system. We can use dehumidifiers and air movers to air-dry the affected areas of your residence.
