Our SERVPRO team is ready to help clean up any water mishaps that have taken over your home.

SERVPRO is Your Best Bet When It Comes to Residential Water Damage 

If you and your West Milford home just broke a long dry spell you might be frustrated and confused. Water finds its way where it is not wanted far too often. Negligent teens shower without securing the door or curtain, a dishwasher goes rogue, spraying down the entire kitchen, a pipe bursts after an unknown slow leak, giving you a flooded floor plus mold already growing between the walls. When a water loss occurs for any reason you need a professional, the reason why we stand ready to help.

Water removal in West Milford is a task we manage regularly and thoroughly. Our team has the highly-qualified technicians and the leading-edge equipment, including pumps and wanded extractors, to exit the unwanted water fast. We also have tools to ensure that not a drop of moisture remains from the water loss. Infrared scanning locates larger pockets of hidden water. Sensitive moisture probes measure the water content of structural components, and our technicians record those readings as a baseline for any structural drying we need to complete during your water removal project.

We often find a cache of water behind a wall, under a floor, or in another building cavity. These challenges are why SERVPRO has several water eliminating strategies among which to choose. Investigating whether there is a way to get at the water from the top or the back is an option, and if there is an opening we can use an extension on one of our wand extractors to suction the water out.

Small holes drilled in a wall can release standing water, but if there is a large quantity hiding a more extreme yet effective option is to make flood cuts. This controlled demolition allows the water to be extracted and permits better airflow during the structural drying phase. Situational flexibility is why SERVPRO also uses specialized drying equipment like the Injectidry system that seals mats on floors or employs hoses inserted into walls to suction moisture using negative air pressure.

Every water removal scenario is unique, supporting why SERVPRO of Wayne is committed to creating the appropriate plan for your water emergency. Call (973) 546-4977 at your earliest convenience for a consultation.
