    •    Truck-mounted extractors that can remove hundreds of gallons of water.

I'm Worried That Flooding Affected My Home's Structure. Can SERVPRO Help?

Once SERVPRO teams have cleared out the water from your home, we can begin the detecting and monitoring process. To track the spread of moisture within your house, our technicians can utilize:

    •    Moisture sensors to detect how far the floodwaters penetrated soft surfaces.
    •    Moisture meters to monitor the actual moisture content of the materials inside your home. We can also use penetrating moisture meters to determine if there is structural water damage within your home.
    •    Thermo-hygrometers to measure temperatures and humidity levels within your home.

Using these tools, our teams can pinpoint moisture hotspots and can deploy drying equipment to mitigate structural water damage in your home.

Does SERVPRO Dry Insulation?

Moisture can affect a moisture's antimicrobial properties and fire resistance, so you must dry or replace damaged insulation as soon as possible. SERVPRO can assess the type of insulation and the extent of the damage to determine if replacing the insulation is necessary. Typically, most insulation must be replaced unless it is fiberglass insulation.
