The First Step in a Successful Water Restoration is to Stop the Source of the Water.

Whether it is a Burst Pipe, a Blocked Drain, or Sub Pump Malfunction it Needs to be Addressed First.

The Next Step in the Water Restoration Process is the Removal of Water Damaged Materials as Well as Content.

Unsalvageable Items Should be Cataloged for Insurance Claim Purposes Before Discarded. If a Carpet has Been Saturated in Unclean Water, it Must be Discarded.

Once the Affected Areas are Cleared of Content and Unsalvageable Materials, Water Restoration Technicians Will Take Atmospheric Readings to Determine the Right Methods and Equipment Needed to Dry the Water Damaged Area.

Readings Should be Taken Daily to Confirm Proper Drying and Progress.
