Heavy rains, plumbing leaks, appliance failures, tub and toilet overflows, stucco cracks, leaking roofs, and other types of water intrusions can cause devastating damage to homes and businesses in the Treasure Coast area. Without immediate and proper action, moisture can cause the growth of molds, which is an even more urgent concern. That is where proper flood damage cleanup and water damage restoration services come in.
Remediation is an urgent matter after a flood or water intrusion. Mold and mildew usually develop around 24 to 48 hours following water exposure. Unless the source of moisture is identified and corrected immediately, mold infestation is imminent. Mold will grow especially quickly in warm, dark environments like a home left vacant due to vacations or transfers.
The first procedure requires removing any affected objects from the site. These objects may be cleaned and dried to prevent further damage. This will also allow our technicians to move around easily and proceed to the next phase.
Our technicians will attempt to extract as much water as possible from the site. When most of the standing water has been removed, then water from carpets and flooring will be the next priority.

There is a variety of special equipment that can be used for the drying process. For example, air movers are special tools that blow pressurized air to help with the initial drying process. Dehumidifiers also help dry the place quickly by removing moisture from the air. Controlling the temperature and humidity in the area with the proper HVAC settings will also help move things along.
The drying procedure has to be continuously monitored to check progress. Drying time varies depending on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. Porous materials such as concrete also take longer to dry. Drying to IICRC recommended levels typically requires multiple days. Hiring the services of a professional company like ours will ensure that proper drying techniques are used to speed up drying time.

Wear Protective Gear: Use gloves, mask and eye protection before proceeding. Also, open the windows and the doors to keep the area ventilated.
Be Cautious When Cleaning Mold: If you decide to clean up mold, know that mold spores can be released and cause health concerns. Suit up and wear a protective covering when dealing with them. Better yet, wait for trained professionals to do the job.
The 48-hour Rule of Thumb: If more than 48 hours have passed, the mold may have developed on wet porous materials like books, clothing, rugs, and upholstered furniture. If this is the case, then let the professionals deal with the matter.
