Water Damage

Water Extraction

Water extraction is the process of reducing the amount of water damage which occurs after a flood or leak. This prevents additional damage by performing appropriate actions. Usually, water extraction is needed during plumbing failures or when such storms occur and cause water to rush into your home. Warped flooring, soaked rugs, damaged walls, and ruined furniture are only a few results when this is not acted on accordingly.

Thermal Imaging

We offer Thermal Imaging as well. Thermal imaging provides the ability to see cold signature through materials that could potentially have a water damage issue that cannot be seen normally by a property owner, it also detects heat signature allowing you to detect an area showing excessive heat needing service or repairs most of the time or replacement of part. Examples of what thermal imaging can provide: detect moisture, detect heat, detect issues in HVAC systems, and detect issues with windows. Thermal imaging lets you know if windows are compromised by allowing a/c to escape or heat to come in.

HOW TO PREVENT PROPERTY DESTRUCTION

Below are the specific steps to be followed to reduce and prevent further property destruction.

Steps to take as soon as you detect flood damage:

Keep calm to think clearly.
Close the main water valve or shut off any water source so flooding stops.
Call the Flood Pro Florida, LLC twenty-four (24) hour service hotline.
TURN OFF the electrical breaker in damaged areas before removing any electrical devices especially from submerged or wet carpets.
To prevent permanent staining, place an aluminum foil under the legs or base of any furniture touching the wet carpet or in contact with water.
Lift or if possible, remove curtains away from wet carpets.
Remove books, papers, fabrics, potted plants or other items that are able to stain wet carpet.

NEVER DELAY WATER EXTRACTION SERVICES

Vacuums or companies that only have carpet drying equipment will not be able to prevent water from wicking up walls, under baseboards, and molding. Keep in mind

NEVER DELAY WATER EXTRACTION SERVICES

water will always penetrate through floor coverings and into subfloors, which will eventually cause damage to rooms below.

Controlling the humidity of the internal building is of extreme important. Undamaged objects could be ruined by absorbing the moisture from the air. Structures that are not dried out quickly enough will become a food source for mold, which could later cause more complex problems to your property.

AVOID THESE WHEN FLOODING OCCURS:

Placing newspaper in affected areas to walk on.Most people have an instinct to place newspapers, thinking it would help in absorbing water. You must keep in mind that newspaper ink transfers easily to wet carpets. This can result in permanent staining.Walking on carpets more than necessary.Refrain from doing this. Walking on carpets more than necessary causes damage to spread to unaffected areas.Using your home vacuum.If you think that you can suck the water out from your rug, then you are one step away from jeopardizing your equipment. Electrical shocks can destroy your equipment since sockets tend to be damaged when your wall is affected by the flood.
