Drying and Dehumidification
After the water removal step, your floors and walls may look dry at first glance, but they are still wet to the touch. Most building materials, like drywall and wood, are porous and will retain significant water. The retained water will cause these materials to warp, swell, or break down and can also cause mold damage. Helpers will manipulate temperature and relative humidity to remove the remaining moisture. Using specialized equipment, including industrial air movers and dehumidifiers, to remove water retained by building materials and other hard-to-access moisture. Carefully monitoring the progress using moisture meters until the materials return to acceptable levels.
Cleaning and Sanitizing
Your property’s walls, floors, and other surfaces will likely need professional cleaning treatments. Besides cleaning your property’s structure, Helpers will also clean your belongings, like furniture, upholstery, clothing, and other restorable personal items, damaged by the water. Flooding and water damage often require odor removal and deodorization treatments as well. Helpers eliminates offensive odors with industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.
This equipment can effectively treat serious and persistent odors that typical air fresheners and similar treatments can’t. When necessary, antimicrobial, antibacterial, or disinfectant treatments may be used to clean your property. Ozone and Hydroxyl generator can be used to remove odor from your affected areas. Helpers will remove and dispose of damaged materials with guidance from you and your insurance adjuster.
