A storm can drop a heavy amount of water into an area home in only a few hours. Eliminating this threat in your home requires a trained response team to quickly move in and draw it out before the water destroys both personal and structural property in Reading.

How does SERVPRO accomplish this?

Flood water removal in Reading homes requires two major steps. First, our specialists pump out the standing or visible water. To do this, we use commercial grade pumps with options not available at DIY and other retailers.

    •    Multiple level settings for drawing off every amount from a foot of water in a basement to an inch of water resting on top of the living room carpet.
    •    Variable speed settings, so specialists do not pull up small items off the floor.

What is the Next Step?

Team members next draw off any water trapped in carpets, flooring material, walls, and personal property like chairs and tables. For this, they use three devices in your home.

    •    Fans to draw damp air out of the interior and force it outside.
    •    Dehumidifiers to pull moisture out of the air.
    •    Air movers to force warm air across floors and walls which pushes moisture out where it is captured by the dehumidifiers or carried out by the fans.

What about the Soil and other Filth left in My Home by the Flood Water?

SERVPRO specialists remove not just the physical contaminants left after removing the water, they also clean every affected surface in your home. This action also serves to reduce and eliminate future threats from mold and other fungi. It also helps eliminate the musty odor left behind after a flood.

If you have any water across your floors, contact SERVPRO of Reading today at (610) 779-8189. We can quickly schedule a service call and start restoring your home to its original, clean condition.
