Fire & Water - Cleanup & Restoration

ADVANCED EQUIPMENT AND TECHNIQUES

9/27/2018 (Permalink)

Within just the past few years, technology and techniques within the restoration industry have evolved rapidly. These advancements allow professionals at SERVPRO of Downtown Long Beach / Signal Hill to restore properties back to preloss conditions more effectively than ever before.

Following guidelines and standards set forth by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC), our technicians use their skills and equipment at the highest caliber for all restoration and cleaning services. Following the IICRC S500 Water Damage Guide, we incorporate the field of psychometry, which involves the manipulation of temperature and relative humidity to remove moisture, and dry a property effectively.

Water can easily saturate your Long Beach residence in undetected areas and damage begins faster than you realize. Our technicians rely upon specialized moisture and measurement equipment to detect, measure, and monitor a property’s moisture levels. Infrared cameras can help detect water through a wall, ceiling, or floor, allowing for thorough water removal. Moreover, sensitive moisture detectors, hygrometers, and other meters measure the extent of moisture saturation.

Powerful water extraction equipment speeds the drying process by removing the majority of the water from your Long Beach home or business. Submersible and gas-powered pumps for continuous pumping of high-level water are utilized for the most difficult jobs and provide efficient clean-up. Furthermore, truck-mounted and portable extraction units allow for rapid water removal and water displacement.

Once the water has been pumped out, industrial strength air movers and dehumidifiers are needed to remove the remaining moisture from ceiling, walls, and floors of your Long Beach home or business. Proper drying helps to prevent swelling and warping of floors, walls, and furniture, and high-speed air circulators cause moisture to evaporate at a faster pace. Industrial grade dehumidifiers pull the water vapor from the air, allowing for faster drying.

Water and fire damage often causes powerful odors. The machines we use remove airborne contaminants and control the air quality during the restoration and cleanup process. Air scrubbers, thermal foggers, and deodorization agents create cleaner air for you and your family to breathe. The use of OSHA-approved cleaning agents may also be needed to clean and remove odors or contaminants on your property. Deodorization products control odors from excessive moisture, and disinfection products stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, mildew, and other harmful microorganisms.

You can trust SERVPRO of Downtown Long Beach / Signal Hill to use the best equipment to bring your life back in order. Whatever the job requires, we have you covered. Call us now, and we will be happy to gather the proper equipment for your specific needs.
