Water Damage Assessments

Our specialists initiate a comprehensive assessment, conducting routine inspections and monitoring activities to formulate efficient drying strategies. Key questions addressed include: Which components are impacted? How wet are they? Are they in the process of drying, and have they reached the desired level of dryness?

This evaluation aids in identifying damaged materials that may require removal due to concerns about structural integrity, irreparable damage, or contamination. Our objective is to dry out materials such as drywall, wood, carpet, padding, baseboards, furniture, insulation, upholstery, and more, unless they show signs of contamination or structural damage based on established industry standards.

Brunswick County, NC Emergency Water Extraction

We start the process by strategically employing specialized equipment to swiftly remove standing water from your premises.

After the water extraction is completed, structures and affected property are either relocated for storage or disposed of. This initial phase is executed promptly with the help of advanced pumping machinery. PuroClean initiates the water removal procedure using robust commercial water pump machines. Following the conclusion of the water removal process, all impacted structures and possessions are taken away, regardless of whether they are retained or discarded.

Dehumidification and Drying

Identifying areas requiring drying and dehumidification, we isolate and prepare them for targeted attention, necessitating the relocation of belongings and upholstery to ensure precision and thoroughness.

A PuroClean expert assesses the designated spaces and strategically positions air-moving machines, focusing on areas with the highest moisture content and trapped water. It’s essential to note that these machines generate significant noise.

Subsequently, the air movers draw water into the air, accelerating evaporation and creating airflow to enhance the dehumidifier’s effectiveness. PuroClean specialists professionally dispose of the extracted water at a separate location.

Once moisture levels normalize, our technicians return moved items and property to their original positions. Technicians continuously monitor humidity levels to facilitate a swift return to previous conditions.

Final Cleaning Processes

Unpleasant smells can emerge in water-damaged carpets, arising from soil and potential issues like mildew, potentially spreading throughout your residence or business. PuroClean utilizes a professional cleaning, deodorizing, and spot removal procedure that effectively eliminates odor-causing soils and organic substances.

Our experts commence the process with a thorough examination and dry vacuuming of your carpet. Repositioning of furniture may be necessary to address the affected carpet areas.

Pre-treatments may be applied for heavily soiled areas, spots, or pet odors. Following the cleaning, additional treatments may involve the application of textile or fiber protection, cleaning hard surfaces, and addressing contents to preserve and enhance your property’s value.
