The Faster, the Better, but Your Bristol Water Restoration May Be Too Slow
Water has a way of showing up where you least expect it after leaking pipes, faulty appliances, or broken shingles turn the inside into a soggy mess. Removing such water is not easy, as various factors may impede progress. For instance, trying to mop up in the middle of the rain will only frustrate you as more water keeps filtering in. At Rainbow Restoration, we get it. That is why we work hard to provide convenient water removal, starting with fast extraction followed by thorough drying of the wet areas.
Knowing how entrenched the problem is goes a long way in ensuring speedy water removal from your Bristol property. A couple of factors, like the condition of the water to be extracted, the depth of pooling water, and the distance it spreads within the building, are the main factors influencing how entrenched the problem is in your premises. Rainbow Restoration can quickly evaluate an incident and determine the fastest ways to resolve it.
Other factors influencing water removal
- The resources available - pumps, extractors, and drying mats expedite the process
- Affected building materials - porous and semi-porous materials absorb and hold onto water
- Hard-to-reach areas - removing water trapped inside walls, subfloors, and crawl spaces is challenging
Removal requires elaborate planning, unlike the accidental process that leaves your place drenched in water. Our Rainbow Restoration crews assess whether you have shallow, moderate, or deep puddles, determining whether wet vacuums or industrial pumps are necessary. Another consideration is the materials on your floor and walls where the water settles. A tiled surface gives you peace of mind. Still, a hardwood or laminate floor will likely absorb significant moisture, creating several problems. After extracting water from the surface, our restoration crews can use a drying mat to remove any water that seeps beneath the floorboards.
Dealing with Moisture—The Invisible Threat
After removing the pools of water from your property, you need to address the moisture aspect of the problem. Moisture can be in the form of high humidity or wetness in carpets, drywall, insulation, or other materials. Our Rainbow Restoration teams use resources like air movers and dehumidifiers to sweep up the humidity from your home. Air movers increase evaporation while dehumidifiers extract moisture from humid air, allowing your valuables and structure to dry uniformly.
Fast water removal doesn’t just clean up the mess; it protects you from significant future problems. Rainbow Restoration of Tri-Cities, TN, has the tools and expertise to facilitate such removal. Call us.
