Water intrusion events present significant hazards to technicians and inhabitants of the property. Frequently water restoration projects require technicians to work in dark areas or restrictive spaces. It is essential to have comprehensive safety protocols for the type of work carried out by water restoration technicians (WRT.)

Safety protocols are necessary for:

• Water clean up
• Water removal services
• Water damage repairs 

The process of water removal from your Wilmington home could present several hazards. Electrical safety, the structural integrity of walls, ceilings, and floors, and slip or trip hazards must be neutralized to ensure a safe working environment. Technicians can also advise the occupants of necessary safety measures during a water intrusion event.
