Professional Drying Equipment for Water Damage in your Granby Home

All moisture contains within it some amount of microbes or other bacteria. When there is a water spill in your residence, this can cause staining of fabrics, furnishings, and fittings. We run a professional restoration service for the removal of water, staining, and bacteria after experiencing a property issue. Our call lines are open twenty-four hours a day, and we can arrange a service for you with a local water technician within four hours from notification of loss. 

One of the critical duties in dealing with water damage in Granby is in the assessment phase. Different scales of contamination have a significant impact on our approach to returning your property to its preloss condition. Acting quickly is essential because as moisture comes into contact with pre-existing dust or bacteria in the home, the scale of contamination can become increasingly severe. A clean water emergency can quickly become a grey or black water issue- which requires demolition and replacement of certain materials like carpets or drywall. 

SERVPRO technicians are equipped with the latest restoration technology to ensure a comprehensive service. Moisture does not stay in one place and naturally migrates from wet to dry. This phenomenon can result in moisture seeping into the subfloor, wall cavities, or crawlspaces. Using thermal imaging cameras, we can trace this process from the source to any possible affected areas. Moisture meters can then be deployed to ascertain the level of saturation in furnishings, floors, or fittings. 

The quickest way to controlling microbial growth is by thoroughly drying the affected area. Portable extraction units can remove larger quantities of water from carpets, furnishings, and flooring. Once the apparent signs of water are removed, SERVPRO can deploy rapid air movers to increase the temperature of surfaces and encourage evaporation. Dehumidification equipment helps to remove the moisture from the air and discourage mold growth. In the majority of situations, proper drying of the property removes malodor, when it does not, we can deodorize using air fresheners, pellets, or thermal fogging equipment. 

Property restoration issues are time sensitive. Contact SERVPRO of Hampshire County (413) 324-1300 for professional assistance.
