Flooding and Water Damage Restoration in Richmond County, GA

One of the original counties in Georiga, Richmond County is a community that cares. That same spirit comes through in the way that our SERVPRO team responds to water disasters that impact the residents of the town. We stay prepared for water disasters with stocked trailers, pull-behind generators and dehumidifiers, and many extraction and drying tools. The faster our professionals reach a damaged home or business, the less out-of-pocket expenses that our customers must endure. 

Water Removal and Mitigation Solutions in Richmond County

Mitigation is a stage designed exclusively to reduce the overall losses a customer experiences. Water removal is the start of this process, as standing water presents a persistent problem for exposed structural elements and contents. Surface pooling can get addressed in multiple ways based on depth. For shallow damage, wet vacuums and attachments can manage the threat, though when the pool is deeper, we can use submersible pumps like: 

  • Trash pumps
  • Truck-mount pumps
  • Electric submersibles

Thorough Drying Practices for Water Damage to Richmond County Homes

Drying the house after a water disaster is among the chief steps in successfully restoring the property. For our experienced SERVPRO team, determining the necessary drying units and tools is determined by monitoring and discovery devices like thermal imagery and hygrometers. We can then utilize air movers and dehumidifiers, and specialty tools like positive pressure systems, to evaporate and remove moisture and water.

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.

1.  Emergency Contact

When you call us, our consultant will guide you through several questions that will help us respond to your water emergency more quickly and efficiently. This initial contact is an important part of a fast, effective restoration.

2. Inspection and Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of your water damage at this stage is crucial to developing a plan of action. We inspect and test the damaged area to determine the extent of damage and how far the moisture has traveled to ensure proper and complete restoration.

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

We clean, repair, and disinfect all of the restorable items and structures that were damaged by the water. We are adept at cleaning contents using a number of techniques. We’re also trained to remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

6. Restoration

The last step is restoring your home or business back to its pre-water damage condition. The restoration step can be relatively minor, such as replacing a few drywall panels, or could include major reconstruction, such as rebuilding entire rooms of a home or business.
