What You Need To Know About Water Damage Repair In Seattle

Offering Water Damage Services

Your Neighbor Services in Seattle offers a variety of services, including repairing the water damage in commercial or residential properties in Seattle. Water damage can happen in a building at any time because of a water pipe breaks or roof leaks. Additional reasons for water damage are natural floods from rivers, and it is possible for a sewer line to rupture. There are different types of water damage that are categorized according to the contamination in the moisture. The clean water that spills from a kitchen’s broken water pipe is safer to remove than the water that overflows from a damaged toilet. It is essential for a cleaning crew to understand the type of water damage in order to make the appropriate repair.

How We Perform Water Damage Repair

If a roof is leaking, then a handyman will cover it with a tarp before beginning the remediation process. Alternatively, when a building has standing water on its lower level, a handyman must install a sump pump to remove the moisture before it seeps upward into other areas. In many cases, a building that has water damage won’t have any working utilities, including climate control. This leads to a building that is humid, increasing the damage from water. Your Neighbor Services in Seattle has powerful generators on its trucks in order to use dehumidification equipment.

Fast remediation in a flooded building is necessary to avoid the secondary problems from mold. It is imperative for a handyman to remove the invading water from surfaces right away with extraction equipment. If a building’s carpets have a small amount of water damage, then it is easy for a handyman to extract the water from the fibers before shampooing the carpeting to remove pathogens. However, when carpets have a lot of water damage, a handyman will lift and remove the carpets for proper disposal at an off-site location. It is also possible to remove water from floor tiles, baseboards, and drywall, but if the water has seeped into the underlying layers, then the materials require removal.
