Damage from flooding due to heavy rains, leaking roofs and cracked slabs can cause major disruption to normal daily lives. Water damage which could initially be cleaned up with minimal cost and labor can advance untreated by the germination and spreading of mold and mildew. Not only does mold expose occupants to grave health hazards it's removal can also be extremely costly. This is why early detection and mitigation is so important when flood damage is first discovered.
Trained professionals use detection equipment to map and evaluate hidden moisture behind walls, ceilings, under flooring and in attic insulation. When found a plan of action is developed to lower moisture to safe levels through water extraction and equipment drying. Dehumidifiers remove excess moisture through a process of condensation replacing wet air with dry air. When high humidity levels are reduced to normal North American standards the threat of mold is removed. Flood damage clean up is successful when property is protected and healthy lives are restored as if the the flooding never took place.
