Our Process

  1. 1

    Initial Assessment

    A rapid response team arrives to assess the situation, identifying the extent and category of water involved using thermal imaging and moisture mapping.

  2. 2

    Water Extraction

    Using industrial-grade equipment, we swiftly remove standing water to prevent further damage to flooring and substructures, focusing on affected crawl spaces and slabs.

  3. 3

    Structural Drying

    Air movers and low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers are deployed to reduce moisture levels, preventing mold growth and ensuring all areas are dry. Special attention is given to potential vapor barriers.

  4. 4

    Sanitization and Mold Prevention

    Once dry, antimicrobial treatments are applied to all surfaces to prevent mold and sanitize areas, especially crucial in previously submerged crawl spaces.

  5. 5

    Final Inspection and Documentation

    A thorough inspection confirms all moisture is eliminated. Documentation is completed for both internal records and insurance claims, ensuring all steps meet IICRC S500 standards.
