Vernon homeowners can save time and money on water damage restoration with SERVPRO.
Sustained and unmitigated water damage can directly impact the structural integrity of building materials like wood and metal. When professionals from SERVPRO head the water damage restoration of your Vernon home, the focus is limiting the extent and scope of such an impact.
SERVPRO professionals use several pieces of equipment during the water damage restoration of your Vernon home to identify and eliminate any hidden moisture. The goal is to create conditions that favor the evaporation of water seeped into the structural components. SERVPRO techs manipulate various physical characteristics such as humidity ratio and temperature to speed up the drying process.
How do SERVPRO techs dry the wall cavities from your Vernon home water cleanup?
Some of the toughest spaces to dry in your Vernon home are structural cavities behind walls and under the cabinets. SERVPRO techs use various drying and ventilating systems to direct airflow in such cavities to replace the moist, cold air with drier and warmer air.
The most commonly used systems consist of vents attached to air movers, while other systems utilize blowers attached to hoses. In some instances, the restorers also drill small holes in walls, ceilings, or under the cabinets to access the structural cavities.
When is negative pressure applied while drying structural cavities?
Negative pressure is achieved when air is pulled from a cavity. It is a method of choice to improve the drying rate if the materials need to be dried without removing contamination or when there is no visible or proven contamination, but the potential exists.
