When water damages your carpet call SERVPRO

How to get water removed from your home

Many houses have a den. It is a cozy and relaxing space for many activities. Sometimes it is used as a home office or library, and other times it is a convenient place for the family to get together for TV or video games. Unfortunately, any room can suffer from water damage and the den is no exception. Some common causes of water entering the room include severe weather conditions such as heavy rain, local flooding, seepage from outside, or a household problem such as a burst pipe or a broken appliance.

When water removal from your Ooltewah home is necessary, it is time to put in a call to SERVPRO. Our teams come equipped to handle any water emergency quickly and restore your home - “Like it never even happened.”

The first step to remove water from your den is thorough extraction. Our technicians have access to both truck-mounted and free standing submersible pumps. The truck mounted pumps have storage tanks that can hold as much as 100 gallons or more, so no matter the amount of water that has infiltrated your den, we can handle it.

Our IICRC-certified experts understand the importance of protecting your carpet or rug during the extraction process. Did you know that carpet is 50% weaker when wet? That is why we choose our tools carefully and start each water removal project using an extraction wand. The wand allows us to remove water while minimizing further damage to carpets. This part of the process takes time to do properly, and our team makes as many passes as necessary to extract water from every corner of the room.

The den is often home to electronics such as the TV or games console or books and office supplies. Our technicians do all they can to preserve your belongings and minimize the amount you have to replace. As well as water extraction and careful wiping of excess water from your equipment, we do all we can to create optimum conditions for rescue and restoration of electronics and books.

SERVPRO uses dehumidifiers to bring the humidity down, and we monitor the temperature to ensure it stays above the dew point. Keeping the heat in the room at the right level helps prevent corrosion of electronic equipment.
