7 Steps to successful restoration
Step 1: Initial Contact
The restoration process begins the moment you contact us. In emergency situations, you can reach us at (516) 629-0773, or alternatively, through our online contact form or chat feature on our website. We are committed to providing an immediate response no matter the time of day or night. During the initial call, our specialist will gather information about the incident and quickly arrange for a technician to be dispatched to your location.
Step 2: Inspection and Assessment
Upon arrival, our technicians will conduct a thorough inspection of the water-damaged areas. They are expertly trained to assess both the source of the water and the extent of the damage. Your cooperation by providing details about plumbing, water shutoff locations, and other relevant aspects of your property will greatly assist this process. The key activities in this step include securing the safety of the premises, identifying the water source, assessing water contamination, and evaluating the overall damage, which may also involve checking for additional hazards like lead or asbestos.
Step 3: Water Removal
After the initial assessment, the crucial step of water removal begins. Our team uses advanced water extraction tools, such as submersible pumps and high-powered vacuums, to remove standing water efficiently. This step is vital for preventing the growth of mold and minimizing secondary water damage.
Step 4: Drying
Following the removal of water, it is essential to address the residual dampness absorbed into walls, floors, and furniture, which can cause warping, swelling, and further damage. To address this, we employ industrial-strength dehumidifiers and specialized drying equipment to thoroughly remove moisture from the affected areas, continuously monitoring the process to ensure the environment is optimally dried.
Step 5: Cleaning
The drying phase is followed by a comprehensive cleaning of the affected area. This step is crucial, especially if the water was contaminated, and includes sanitizing all affected surfaces with antimicrobial and antibacterial treatments. We assess all impacted items to determine their salvageability, employing various cleaning techniques or, when necessary, disposing of items that cannot be restored.
Step 6: Damage Mitigation
The penultimate step involves repairing the water damage as extensively as possible immediately following the cleaning phase. Our team handles minor structural repairs and provides urgent services like boarding up and tarping exposed areas. For more substantial structural damage, we assist with contractor referrals and provide detailed assessments to ensure effective reconstruction.
Step 7: Project Completion
To conclude the project, we ensure that all aspects of the water damage have been addressed comprehensively. We provide a detailed walkthrough of the actions taken and discuss any subsequent steps required. Recognizing the stress associated with water damage, we commit to easing the restoration process and addressing any concerns you may have.
