Does SERVPRO Use Advanced Equipment and Technology After a Flood?

The SERVPRO Box Truck Is Stocked with Advanced Equipment to Mitigate Flooding in Rocky Point properties.

Post-flood damage recovery for Rocky Point homes involves several industry-leading tools.

Flooding can occur with little warning in Rocky Point homes. Because of these situations' urgency, our professionals utilize multiple tools and technologies to overcome damaging effects and lessen total losses for the residence.

When you consider flood damage to Rocky Point houses, our SERVPRO team must work quickly to address current conditions. We can handle standing water with multiple extractors, including submersible pumps, truck-mount pumps, and wet vacuums. Other considerations we must make include:

• Air Movers: Centrifugal air movers direct blasts of heated air directly at saturated structural elements and contents. Additionally, axial air movers focus on generating greater air circulation and flow throughout the drying zones' open spaces. 
• Dehumidification: We have multiple dehumidifiers that can help to take the rising moisture content in the environment and collect it for disposal. Desiccants can be even more efficient in this regard, as they can exhaust dry, warm air back into the drying zone to promote more efficient evaporation. 
• Monitoring: Using tools like thermal imagery cameras and moisture meters, we can identify moisture pockets beyond surface materials. Understanding where dampness exists allows us to direct drying materials to the appropriate locations. 

How Can We Document Damage and Progress?

Software plays a role in the way that we gather and share data about a current restoration project. Xactimate manages construction and repair projects while DryBook helps to document conditions of contents and building materials. As we gather new information through regular monitoring, this software gets updated.
