Morgan Hill Residents Rely on SERVPRO for Water Mitigation of Their Homes

Water mitigation of your Morgan Hill property is a job for the professionals. During the mitigation services, SERVPRO technicians focus on extracting the water as soon as possible and taking steps to prevent the water from inflicting further damage to the structure and its contents. 

Dealing with the excess moisture is one of the most important aspects of water mitigation of your Morgan Hill home. The lingering moisture in the air can cause secondary structural damage and even mold. SERVPRO technicians use various dehumidification methods to restore the moisture content of the structure to preloss conditions during water damage repairs. In case of category 2 or category 3 damages involving contaminants, SERVPRO techs take additional steps to prevent contamination from spreading to an unaffected area. 

What Mitigation Steps do SERVPRO Techs Take During Water Cleanup from your Morgan Hill home? 

Water mitigation after incidents such as burst pipes, ceiling leaks, or even flooded basements require proper planning and execution involving the following steps-

• Establishing engineering controls- Contaminants can easily dislodge and spread to unaffected areas if not contained. SERVPRO techs seal off the affected area with 6-mil polyethylene plastic using special tension poles and tape. Even a decontamination chamber is also set up for the removal of debris. Air filtration devices and negative pressure ensure that clean air enters the affected area, but the contaminated air can't go to the unaffected area. 
• Removing bulk material- SERVPRO techs remove any solid waste, silt, and debris to limit the secondary damage. Trash pumps are often used to remove water with suspended waste. 
• Provide humidity control- Technicians use air movers and dehumidifiers to keep humidity under control during the water mitigation process.
