Preventing Mold after Water Damage

4/19/2023 (Permalink)

This rainy season has caused a lot of water and storm damage to our neighbors.  SERVPRO of Kennett Square/Oxford has spent a great deal of the past month restoring properties with water leaks and sump pump failures after heavy downpours, and we have also assisted those with damaged roofs after trees had been knocked down due to the wind or other unfortunate circumstances.

During this season of storms, it is important to dry the affected areas properly in order to prevent further water issues or future mold damage.  Our certified water damage restoration professionals are trained to follow strict industry standards in order to help lower the chances of these further issues.

Our team will inspect your building to discover all signs of water droplets or wet materials that have been affected.  We also measure the moisture in these materials and monitor that everything is drying properly with the help of our air movers.

By allowing a trained professional to fully dry the structure for you, you will suffer a much lower risk of finding mold later in those same areas.  Cleaning up the areas may seem easy enough, but allowing a professional to cover all of the difficult areas where water can hide will save you much more time and money down the road!

SERVPRO of Kennett Square/Oxford provides 24/7 emergency services for water and fire damage, but we also respond quickly to needs involving mold remediation, cleaning services and reconstruction. We are “here to help” restore properties in our local communities as efficiently as possible with minimal downtime for your home or business.
