Need Water Damage Repair and Mitigation Cleanup in Edgewater – Call SERVPRO®

Many residents of Edgewater assume water leaks can be repaired, surface water removed, and the remaining water inside walls or under floors allowed to dry naturally. Unfortunately, excess water penetrates porous materials, causing them to swell and lose structural integrity, e.g., drywall, hardwood flooring, and furniture constructed from pressed wood products.

SERVPRO can help mitigate this secondary damage, reducing the total water damage in Edgewater properties and repair costs caused by the initial leak. Our team deploys high-capacity pumps to remove visible water from basements and lower areas of your home. We use water extractors to remove water from:

• Inside walls and difficult-to-reach areas
• Between the hardwood floor planks,
• Under cupboards and shelving
• Inside ceilings of rooms under the site where the water leak occurred

Our high-capacity dehumidifiers and air movers reduce humidity levels, drying any of the above areas affected by water. Quick action by our team can mitigate much of the secondary damage before water and moisture can penetrate porous materials.

We use specialized equipment as needed to avoid further damage to your home.

• Water extraction wands to reach inside crevices and difficult-to-reach areas.
• Drying mats for hardwood floors to remove water and moisture from between the planks of hardwood floors.
• Moisture meters to detect high moisture levels inside walls.

Homeowners must be careful to avoid slips and falls or electrocution around water. Avoid turning on lights, electronics, and other electrical devices exposed to water in your home. Remove wet contents from areas where dyes could leak onto furniture and area rugs, causing further damage. Turning air conditioning on can also assist in removing moisture from your home. Remove cherished heirlooms, expensive art items, and other valuables to a safe, dry place to avoid further damage to these items.
