SERVPRO Combines Different Approaches for Faster Turnaround or Better Outcomes

Whether it is a damaged roof or pipe that releases water into your Hamilton Township house, you need to take action to limit the impact. Extracting the water in good time can forestall many problems that follow such incidents, including bad odors, stains, and mold.

Water extraction from Hamilton homes can be a relatively simple exercise of scooping water from surfaces or a complex operation requiring demolition in sections of the structure. Having the right equipment is essential for all types of removal, which is why SERVPRO invests heavily in different extraction technologies.

The most commonly used tools for water extraction from homes include:

• Portable extractors
• Truck-mounted extractors
• Submersible pumps
• Trash pumps

These machines help remove water while it is still in liquid form—the amount and condition of the water influence the choice of equipment. For example, our SERVPRO technicians use truck-mounted and submersible pumps when significant amounts of water are involved. Trash pumps, on the other hand, are necessary when the water involves debris and thus may damage regular pumping equipment.

In most cases, the leaking water soaks into various structural materials and contents such as carpets and upholstery. Some water may also find a way into concealed spaces where conventional equipment cannot reach. Removing the trapped water requires unique approaches and equipment.

Some commonly used procedures include:

• Carpet and pad removal for off-site drying
• Punching vent holes in walls or ceilings to release trapped water
• Evaporation and dehumidification

Each of these procedures requires the right equipment. Otherwise, it is possible to cause unnecessary structural damage. A seemingly light task like carpet removal requires several tools, including seam rollers, knee kickers, and staple hammers, among others. SERVPRO invests in a wide assortment of equipment, thus resolving each case satisfactorily.
