Cleanup and Sanitization After Water Damage in Jamesport Home

Bacteria and microbes develop rapidly after water damage in a home. In fact, after just 48-hours, the water in a home requires the same safety equipment as handling a loss contaminated with sewage. 

That is why water damage cleanup in Jamesport homes must begin as soon as possible when it happens. SERVPRO technicians arrive quickly to extract the water, and they also test it to determine if any bacterial agents or contaminants are present.

Vast Array of Cleaning Agents

SERVPRO techs have access to a diverse selection of cleaning solutions, including antimicrobial, solvents, and antibacterial formulas. They also have specialized mixtures for specific surfaces such as cleaning masonry, tile, concrete, or laminated surfaces without causing harm. 

Scoping for Water Loss

One of the essential things when cleaning up water is determining the migration path. SERVPRO techs can trace anywhere the water went using their state-of-the-art moisture detection equipment, and take the appropriate actions to remove it and then move on to drying the property.

Deep Cleaning 

Once the property verifies as attaining pre-set drying goals, the technicians work on cleaning all water-affected surfaces with their professional-grade agents. SERVPRO technicians perform proactive treatments to avoid the setup of mold colonies through the use of their antimicrobial solutions and using sealants whenever necessary.

Odor Control Treatments

After a water loss in a home, a residual musty smell may remain after drying and cleaning. In these cases, the technicians deploy different methods depending upon the level of odor control needed. For light odors, the techs use time-release gel capsules. When more robust odor eradication, the use of fogging equipment is a useful method in most instances, the techs determine on a case by case basis if this method is a good fit. While wearing protective gear, a technician uses a fogger to deliver a heated solvent. The fog penetrates porous objects and neutralizes any type of odor.
