Choose SERVPRO for Your Water Cleanup Needs in Niagara Falls

The first step for water damage restoration in your Niagara Falls home, water mitigation, stops additional damage from happening and involves removal of water, moisture control, and drying of the structure.

Water mitigation for your Niagara Falls home can be considered an emergency response containing the initial impact. It minimized secondary water damage, like soaked drywall and buckled floors. SERVPRO has trained professionals who are always ready to respond to such an emergency. Performing mitigation first sets the stage for complete property restoration.

The Mitigation Process

• Inspection and Assessment – First, our technicians inspect your property and assess the level of damage and what type it is. We also do any needed emergency repairs and boarding up of the building.
• Water Extraction – Standing water is pumped from the property using a truck-mounted water extraction system. This effort is for flooding. We follow up with specialized vacuum equipment, removing residual moisture from porous surfaces.
• Structural Drying – This process involves industrial-grade equipment, like subfloor and wood floor drying systems, heavy-duty axial fans, high-volume air movers, and desiccant humidifiers.
• Stabilization of Property – We achieve this by using site-specific drying techniques, which minimize additional water damage. For example, the drying equipment can be centered on buckling floors or crumbling drywall. We can stabilize the property and ready it for restoration by addressing secondary water damage.
• Site Cleanup – As the drying process progresses, our team clears out debris, identifies salvageable items, and starts the cleanup process. This effort includes disinfecting all the affected materials and surfaces.
