Protect Your Castle in Santa Rosa Beach from Water Intrusion--Call SERVPRO for Cleanup and Extraction

SERVPRO Can Clean Up Debris and Extract Water and Quickly Dry Your Home

Fire can happen any home, including the ones located in Santa Rosa Beach. Significant damage can occur from even small fires to the interior of a home and cover different types of damage. Because of this, SERVPRO trains their employees so they know how to respond to each type of harm from smoke and fire that might exist within your property.
 
After a house fire, homeowners often find that their home sustains not only damage from the fire, but also water damage. Firefighters in Santa Rosa Beach may use thousands of gallons of water to extinguish each housefire they respond to, and this water remains until a qualified company extracts it from the home and restores normal moisture levels. Smaller fires that homeowners extinguish themselves can also cause this problem but on a smaller scale.
 
Because flooding in the traditional sense did not occur, we can skip straight to the use of hand-held extractions units that gently remove the water from your floors. These remove water and leave floors almost dry, but we need to take other measures, too. These steps include increasing the number of times that air changes inside your home and other methods.
 
We raise the temperature inside your property, so evaporation rates increase. Air movers do exactly that, - move air around, so the air whisks up the extra humidity and prevents it from condensing elsewhere in your home. Along the same lines, floors inundated with water require specialized care.
 
Other areas of your home, such as walls and even ceilings often absorb large amounts of water. Your personal belongings and household furnishings most likely absorbed quite a bit of the water, as well. The steps that increase the temperature and the airflow currents' speed take care of these issues for the most part, but special situations might exist, such as expensive paintings and other artwork, antiques, and family heirlooms that might sustain damage from excessive moisture. If such situations exist within your home and they concern you, please discuss these with us so we can give them the consideration they deserve. We want to make your home "Like it never even happened" again.
