Water damage may cause more problems than you know. SERVPRO techs of Levittown have all the knowledge and experience needed for your home.

Assessing Build-Back and Water Damage Repair Needs

While there are many phases of water damage restoration and recovery, emergency services play a vital role in helping structures after a disaster. Mitigation can include controlled demolition and repairs as well as:

• Content relocation
• Water removal
• Structure drying
• Surface cleaning

Inspections and Damage Assessments

To understand needed water damage repairs for Levittown homes and businesses, our production manager must assess the damage to the property. This skilled expert of our roster catalogs loss, weakened building materials, and any surfaces needing drying or repairs.

What is the Material's Condition?

Inspections are important to determine the extent of water damage to impacted building materials, contents, and personal belongings. Susceptible construction elements heavily damaged by absorbing water must be assessed for integrity and irreparable harm. This inspection can determine when controlled demolition is needed.

Is It Cheaper to Replace a Wet Material?

Our objective is to save our customers money and time for restoration work to occur. In some cases, this means evaluating the most efficient approaches, even if they are temporarily more invasive. Some wet materials are easier to remove and replace than dry and treat. We inspect impacted materials on a case-by-case basis.

Has a Sign of Mold Growth Emerged?

Moisture damage can continue to impact organic matter throughout a home during restoration. Prolonged exposure to surfaces like drywall or wood often results in mold colonies from naturally occurring spores in the environment. Mold development on sensitive materials can be enough to require some elements to be demolished and discarded. 

With answers to these questions following the thorough inspection of the property, we can determine where water damage repairs are needed and to what extent.
