Water Removal Tactics Benefit Wilmington Properties

Water mitigation is critical to protect structures and their contents. This is especially true for some of the historic buildings in the region like the Old Customshouse or the Friends Meeting House in the Quaker Hill area. Removing standing water can be a focal point for responding technicians to prevent absorption into wood flooring, framing, and other sensitive materials used in construction. With more than 70,000 residents in the city, extraction and mitigation must be efficient to keep our technicians ready for the next emergency.

Water Damage Repairs for Homes and Businesses

Many damages must be addressed before cleaning and restoring your home, including the repair to plumbing or appliances. These repairs are vital to reestablishing service in public buildings like the Delaware Art Museum or The Wilmington Library. With a team of in-house contractors ready and able to help, we can identify the problem areas where controlled demolition is necessary, repair missing or damaged plumbing, and provide temporary construction solutions to prevent secondary damages.
