Why Involve SERVPRO When There is Water Damage in Your Reading Home 

Water spills are among the most common incidents that happen in Reading homes. The damage level varies in each case, with some requiring professional assistance. When looking for such assistance, there is a need to find a knowledgeable partner that can address all issues that crop up during the restoration process.

Better scoping of the problem

One common characteristic of water damage that affects Reading homes is widespread moisture migration. While most of the water might pool close to the source, the rest spreads through gravity action or wicking through materials. A spill starting in upper floors may also leave walls and ceilings in lower floors wet. It is not always feasible to identify such water migration from visual observation. Our SERVPRO technicians help because we have a wide range of moisture detection equipment. We use thermal cameras, which rely on temperature differences to establish the presence of water in concealed areas. We also have moisture meters that check wetness in materials.

Superior Drying Equipment and Procedures

Water spills damage homes in different ways, including soiling if the source of the water is not clean and degradation of materials due to wetness. The wetness aspect is what leads to losses. Our SERVPRO teams include IICRC certified WRT, Water Restoration Technicians, who use advanced approaches to dry all wet materials and contents. We scope the loss situation, including establishing the common types of materials in your house. Such evaluation establishes whether we need high capacity extraction equipment such as truck-mounted water extractors or wet vacs can do the job. We also establish whether there is a need for demolition processes such as carpet removal or making flood cuts.

Quality Customer Service

Dealing with water spills can be an emotionally draining process. Apart from saving your valuables, you might also need to deal with your insurer and in some cases, seek accommodation elsewhere. Our SERVPRO technicians understand these challenges, which is why we offer quality customer care service. We work closely with your adjuster ensuring decisions such as disposal of items are authorized. We also use our training and experience to estimate the likely duration that it would take to restore your property, allowing you to make informed plans.
