Tools During Water Cleanup Jobs in Arlington Heights
Cleaning up messes is something you do every day in your Arlington Heights residence. When a larger, more complex situation develops, you can depend on SERVPRO to help mitigate the damage caused to your home. We understand that accidents happen at the worst possible times, so we are always available to answer whenever you call.
Just like you often depend on a mop and bucket to maintain your home, we perform water cleanup tasks in Arlington Heights with these tools and several others. Each helps us get the work done and protect your home from the effects of water. Because water can dissolve many substances and carry them wherever it goes, we also want to do more than remove the water. When cleaning up surfaces, we want to remove any grime or residue deposited there by the water.
When we need to clean up a floor that has since dried, we sweep first to remove anything on its surface. If we find that a mop and bucket approach fails to pick up any remaining residues, we switch to using absorbent towels. We fold these several times to give us enough 'squares' to clean a substantial area before we need another towel.
In large rooms with an exterior door, like the garage or a patio area, we might use a power washer and squeegees to remove debris. This method quickly gives us effective results and is easy for us to set up and start cleaning. We follow up afterward with ventilation and desiccation. This stage requires an air mover used in conjunction with a drying method.
An upstairs bathroom and plumbing can create top-down water damage if your house has a second story. A broken pipe can fill the voids with water. We can punch holes in the ceiling to drain the affected panels.
