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.

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.

Our Restoration Process

Every water damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” water damage emergency.

3. Water Removal / Water Extraction

Typically, hundreds or thousands of gallons of water are removed using our powerful pumps and vacuums during the water removal process. We start this process as soon as possible to minimize further damage and to help prevent mold growth.

4. Drying and Dehumidification

After the bulk of the water has been removed, we use specialized equipment to target the water that’s harder to access. Our Professionals use less intrusive, scientific drying methods to draw the remaining water and moisture from your property with air movers and dehumidifiers.

5. Cleaning and Sanitizing

Water damage also affects your belongings, like furniture, clothing, and personal items. We can clean restorable items using a number of specialized cleaning techniques. We also disinfect with antimicrobial treatments and remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.
