Professional Water Cleanup For Kew Gardens Residents

Discovering large quantities of water in your residence is the last thing a homeowner wants. By using a professional service, you can get your home back to its pre-damage condition. We have an outstanding reputation in the restoration industry and specialize in repairing water-related issues. Using a combination of know-how and industry-leading training and equipment, we can make the damage "Like it never even happened."

One of the core services we provide is water cleanup in Kew Gardens and the surrounding area. These services incorporate cleaning, drying, and deodorizing a property after excess water has entered the home. By acting quickly, we can reduce the damage caused by a water spill. Our local technicians can arrive on-site in as little as four hours from loss notification.

The most reliable of dealing with a water issue is by establishing a closed system. Closed systems involve quarantining an affected area through physical barriers. The benefit of utilizing a closed system is that we do not risk humid air traveling throughout the house. The closed system enables us to focus on a smaller surface area, resulting in faster drying times. SERVPRO also gauges water migration using thermal imaging cameras to determine the drying zone's size.

One of the rules in water cleanup is to remove stained furniture while the item is wet. SERVPRO has various chemical agents to assist our techs during the cleaning process. These agents range from potent disinfectants to light sanitizers. Depending on the sensitivity of the materials we are cleaning, we can opt for non-harmful or corrosive cleaners to help remove stainings or reduce potential damages.

Once a property is thoroughly dried, most of the odor dissipates naturally. Sometimes water may disturb pre-existing issues. In this case, SERVPRO may need to place pellets or even look at fumigating the affected zone using thermal fogging equipment. However, in most cases, finishing surfaces with a light, non-toxic air freshener can mask an odor until it dissipates naturally.
