Flooding quickly causes flood damage. Contact SERVPRO for water removal and remediation services.

Our Teams at SERVPRO are Trained and Certified to Properly Handle Your Properties Flood Damage

Flooding is something that can happen without warning due to a storm that gets out of control. If a large amount of water outside your home starts to infiltrate the structure, it is essential to have trained technicians on your side to help mitigate the damage. This is an area where our team at SERVPRO shines, and we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for all emergency calls.

After moisture makes its way into your structure, it starts to soak into the building materials, and your home may suffer from flood damage in Azusa. Water entering your home from outside may include contamination, which then classifies it as gray water or a Class II scenario. With any category two projects, SERVPRO technicians employ special measures that help prevent bacteria and harmful parasites from spreading. This is a process that often begins with the removal of any carpeting or other porous materials that became saturated.

Extraction Methods

Once the soaked, porous items and materials are removed from your interior, we then work to extract any standing water. We come equipped with truck-mounted pumps and vacuums that allow us to remove hundreds, or even thousands, of gallons of water in a short time. 

Drying Methods

Initial measures for drying a structure includes taking readings for moisture levels, noting the indoor humidity levels, and paying attention to the air temperatures. Constant testing is performed to ensure that all of our drying procedures are working as they should be. If subfloor testing shows that moisture levels are not dropping as quickly as they should, we may use other methods to speed the drying process.

Air movers and dehumidifiers strategically placed enhance airflow and foster fast drying to pull moisture from saturated materials. Certain situations may also call for the use of plastic sheeting to concentrate our drying efforts on any area drying slower than usual.

With careful monitoring and tried-and-true methods for water removal and restoration, SERVPRO of Azusa/Covina makes the flood damage, “Like it never even happened.” Call our team today at (626) 387-4111, and we will come out for an assessment as quickly as possible.
