Trust PuroClean of Victorville for your Water Damage Remediation

PuroClean QuickDry System™

Our QuickDry systems is designed to dry affected structural materials and contents and in a timely and effective manner can include:

• A thorough assessment and inspection of the structure to determine what’s wet and how wet structural materials and contents are with infrared cameras and moisture meters.
• The removal of standing water.
• The application of specialized drying equipment.
• Daily inspections and monitoring until materials have reached their pre-loss condition and established drying goals.

During our Process of Water Removal: The PuroClean of Victorville certified water damage specialists are there to ensure that the obvious and hidden water damaged areas of your property are restored – they do this while giving special care to all of your belongings and property.

Mold and Odor Removal: Water losses not handled and dried down quickly can lead to secondary damage such as microbial growth, as well as cause structural components to lose their integrity, potentially impact indoor air quality, and may ultimately result in compromised occupant health issues to develop. PuroClean’s IICRC certified technicians follow industry standards to properly remediate mold that has infected and/or damaged and return the property to a pre-loss condition. Once a scope of remediation and repair has been determined, they will implement engineering controls and containment to prevent cross-contamination to unaffected areas of a building utilizing negative pressure with HEPA air filtration devices. A remediation protocol is developed to remove contaminants by:

• The removal of compromised materials and contents per industry standards.
• A thorough cleaning using HEPA air filter devices and HEPA vacuums.
• A thorough cleaning of all surfaces with cleaning solutions that can include EPA registered disinfectants, followed by another HEPA vacuuming of all surfaces.

A lot of people use bleach to clean mold; however, this is an ineffective method as bleach does not kill the spores; it only bleaches them. PuroClean’s mission is to return your property to a clean and safe condition.

Odors are a sign that something could still be wet. If something has a musty pungent odor it can indicate microbial issues that can create MVOC’s (microbial volatile organic compounds) and can cause health related issues. PuroClean’s approach is to follow industry standards to develop the right scope of repair for your home or business, which includes employing specialized equipment, cleaning practices, followed by recommending a clearance test to ensure your property has reached the desired goal.

Water Damage Assessment:

• Our technicians will first conduct a thorough assessment, perform daily inspections and monitoring to develop drying strategies and answer: What’s wet, how wet is it, is it drying, and has it reached its dry standard.
• The assessment helps determine what damaged material may need to be removed due to structural integrity issues, damage not restorable, or contamination. Our goal is to dry all materials such as drywall, wood, carpet and padding, baseboards, furniture, insulation, furniture, upholstery, and more, providing they are not contaminated, or structurally compromised according to industry standards.

Emergency Extraction of Water in Victorville

We begin by extracting any standing water present on your premises using high-grade equipment strategically placed to remove all water from the area.

• The first step calls for immediate water removal with our advanced pumping machines. Once the water is removed, all affected belongings and structures will be removed and stored or discarded.
• Once the water is completely removed from your property, the equipment will be removed, and the displaced water will be disposed of at an environmentally safe location.

Drying & Dehumidification

Afterwards, our goal is to identify, isolate and prep all areas that up for drying and dehumidification.

1. Your belongings and upholstery need to be moved to make sure the process can be completely performed.
2. Our professionals will place industrial air movers, focusing on the most affected areas. The most highly affected areas will be the focus, and trapped water will be removed by the machines. These machines are very loud.
3. The water is sucked into the air by these powerful air movers, which are specially designed to increase evaporation in the given space and create airflow so dehumidifiers can be most effective. PuroClean technicians dispose of the water in a separate location.
4. Once moisture levels are normal, our technicians will bring back moved property and items to where they belong in your house. The humidity levels are monitored closely by PuroClean technicians to ensure that things can get back to normal as soon as possible.

Final Cleaning Processes

Odors can form in a carpet that has been water damaged very easily due to soils and potentially from other issues such as mildew and may spread beyond the affected area to your entire home or business. PuroClean’s professional process of cleaning, deodorizing and spot removal will safely and effectively remove soils and organics that are odor-causing.

• Our technicians will begin with a complete inspection and dry vacuuming of your carpet.
• To properly repair the affected carpet, where needed, your furniture may require repositioning.
• Pre-treatments may be required for heavily soiled areas, spots, or pet odors.
• Post cleaning treatments can include textile or fiber protection, the cleaning of hard surfaces and contents that can help protect and prolong the value of your property.

Victorville Water Damage Do’s and Don’ts

Although the repair of water damage in Victorville is a high priority, safety of our customers and technicians is our most important priority. The following tips will help reduce risk of suffering setbacks due to a rain event, flood, roof leaks or faulty plumbing or AC units; regardless of whether you are mitigating or restoring water damage.

What You Should Do:

• Shut off main water supply: Turn off your home’s water supply. You may need to call a plumber for repairs.
• Use Caution: Floors may be slippery so be sure to watch your step. Also, watch for any trip and fall hazards as well as for any exposed electrical wires.
• Water removal: Mop as much water as possible. In cooler weather, open windows to speed up the drying process and in hot weather, only if it’s safe to do so, turn on your A/C.
• Prop Up Upholstery: Remove all loose cushions and prop up upholstered furniture.
• Deal with Area Rugs and Obstacles: Remove any area rugs and pick up any items that may be sitting on the floor.
• Dry Storage Containers: Open any wet suitcases and storage boxes; and, if possible, have them dry in the sunlight.
• Protect Valuables: Move any paintings and other art to a safe, dry place.
• Dry Clothing: Immediately dry all garments. Hang leather and fur goods to dry at room temperature.
• Protect Your Furniture: Put aluminum foil or plastic underneath furniture legs on wet carpeting. Open (but do not force) drawers and cabinet doors to dry out interiors.
• Contact PuroClean ASAP: Call PuroClean of Victorville. Experienced technicians highly trained in Victorville water damage are ready to come to you.

Do Not Do:

• Do not Use a Vacuum Cleaner: Only use a wet vacuum, which is designed to deal with water. DO NOT USE your regular household vacuum.
• Do not touch electrical outlets: Leave cords alone. If it is plugged in, leave it and if it is not plugged in, leave it. Don’t touch electrical cords at all.
• DO NOT USE APPLIANCES: DO NOT USE TVs, radios, computers, ceiling fans, or any other electrical appliances while standing on wet carpets or floors, particularly concrete or tile floors.
• Do not let it get too warm: Try to keep wet areas as cool as possible because hot, damp areas promote mold growth

Does homeowners insurance cover flooding or water damage? Do you work with insurance companies to minimize the cost and hassle?

Homeowners insurance provides coverage for sudden and accidental damage (such as water heater ruptures or pipe bursts). However, flood damage, no matter the water source, is NOT covered by standard homeowners policies. Also, a standard homeowners insurance policy will not cover water damage that results from a lack of maintenance.
