Removing Flood Damaged Drywall from Crossville Homes
All manner of water loss incidents, including flooding in your Crossville home, can quickly damage many materials and contents within the property. While you work to get the right professional team there quickly to begin essential mitigation efforts, in emergencies, entirely preserving and protecting affected constructional materials is impossible. Damage assessment that occurs from the start of our initial arrival at your home can determine materials and structural elements too badly damaged to preserve and restore.
Certain materials are more susceptible to this damage in your Crossville than others, and flood removal for standing water and compromised construction is essential to begin the road to restoring the property fully. Our SERVPRO team can work quickly to determine the full extent of the flood damage right away to begin bringing in the necessary equipment for extraction and air purification to reduce the possibility of secondary effects like mold growth.
Sheetrock drywall is a common staple in modern construction, but its porous composition also leaves it most susceptible to standing water and the wicking of moisture. Saturated, and often contaminated with Black Water, drywall can become unstable and bloated within as little as a day, leaving it unable in many cases to get entirely preserved even with the fast emergency response you can expect from our SERVPRO technicians. Instead, we work to preserve what we can from these exposed materials to make later reconstruction and replacement faster and more cost-effective.
We have licensed contractors on our team to oversee this controlled demolition. Once mitigation work completes and the affected areas are free of lingering moisture and debris, our residential contractors can get to work on replacing removed structural elements with new materials. This seamless transition between phases of work ensures that we can get you back into your home faster than you might have expected.
There are casualties that come with flooding in your home, and exposed drywall is often one of them. With our SERVPRO of Cumberland, Morgan & White Counties water restoration technicians and licensed contractors working together, we can make this situation “Like it never even happened.” Give us a call at (931) 250-5333.
