SERVPRO Technicians Investigate to Find ANY and ALL Hidden Pockets of Water Before Secondary Damage Spreads Through Your Home

Water can be difficult to remove from all areas of your Crossville home. Investing in professional help to be certain it is evacuated completely is an investment you will not regret. The average homeowner does not own the equipment or the skills to complete the job easily, but we have both available 24 hours a day.
 
The destructive action of water can be hard to imagine since we also rely upon it daily for drinking and cleansing. When it collects inside your home because of plumbing leaks, negligence, or natural disasters like flooding it is urgent to find a Crossville professional for fast water removal. Our work crews are familiar with efficient methods to get the water out and finish the task with proper drying strategies.
 
Building materials make water removal harder as they absorb the moisture and allow it to pool up in hard to locate recesses. SERVPRO technicians respond to these challenges with training in accurate moisture measurement and technological advances like scanners that help us detect areas where water hides. It is relatively straightforward to pump out and use vacuum extractors to attack visible standing water after a water heater bursts, for example. Quickly responding to this acute problem resolves the situation without much additional work.
 
If the heater slowly leaked over a period of time instead, the water may have seeped into the cells of a cinder block wall or collected between the subfloor and the vapor barrier to your crawl space. Removing that water is trickier but just as necessary because otherwise it deteriorates your home’s foundation and creates the optimum environment for mold growth if it remains for several days. Our SERVPRO crews are educated in the characteristics of water intrusions from many sources and use their skills and experience to find and eradicate all the moisture.
 
Our focus is on restoration, not demolition and replacement, so expect persistence and creativity from SERVPRO as we search for and release hidden pockets of water. We may use long wands to suction water out of areas between walls or drill small holes at the bottom of walls to release trapped moisture. Throughout the process, we plan for the least disruptive way to accomplish the most good and follow that lead.
