Water Damage Restoration

Disaster Recovery Restoration employs thermal imaging cameras (IR) for precise property inspections, eliminating guesswork in detecting even the smallest water damage sources. Our inspections, priced around $350, use infrared technology to locate and stop leaks at their source. A thermal imaging inspection utilizes a camera to detect and record infrared energy emitted by objects, including water leaks, making leaking areas easily detectable on IR images as they emit less heat than surrounding materials. This next-generation technology not only saves you thousands in repairs but also ensures the job is done right by expert water damage restoration teams. The benefits include non-invasive leak detection, highly reliable outcomes for prompt repairs, cost prevention through regular maintenance inspections, and insurance claim support. Our professional infrared scans can uncover hidden issues, such as mold and mildew growth or wood damage, allowing us to document problems and present your insurance with evidence, potentially increasing the coverage and saving you thousands of dollars in the process.

After thoroughly drying the affected areas, our meticulous cleaning and sanitizing process goes beyond simply removing visible dirt and grime. We prioritize the health and safety of your family, employees, or customers by ensuring a hygienic environment free from contaminants. Here’s our comprehensive approach:

1. Assessment of Contamination: We begin by evaluating the extent of contamination caused by the water damage. This involves identifying any potential hazards, such as sewage, chemicals, or biological contaminants, that may pose health risks.
2. Removal of Debris and Soiled Materials: Any debris, damaged materials, or unsalvageable items are carefully removed and disposed of safely. This step prevents further contamination and creates a clean slate for the sanitization process.
3. Cleaning with Specialized Solutions: We use industry-approved cleaning agents and disinfectants to thoroughly clean all affected surfaces. These solutions are specifically formulated to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that may have thrived in a damp environment.
4. Sanitizing Hard Surfaces: Hard surfaces like floors, walls, countertops, and appliances are sanitized using appropriate disinfectants. This step ensures that all surfaces are free from harmful pathogens and safe for regular use.
5. Cleaning and Sanitizing Soft Furnishings: Upholstered furniture, carpets, and other soft furnishings are cleaned and sanitized using specialized techniques and equipment. Depending on the material and level of contamination, we employ hot water extraction, steam cleaning, or dry cleaning methods.
6. Air Purification: To address airborne contaminants, we utilize air scrubbers and HEPA filters to remove dust, mold spores, and other particles that may be circulating in the air. This step ensures clean and healthy indoor air quality.
7. Deodorization: We use professional-grade deodorizers to eliminate any lingering odors caused by water damage. These products neutralize odors at the source, leaving your space smelling fresh and clean.
8. Final Inspection: We conduct a thorough inspection to ensure that all cleaning and sanitizing procedures have been completed to our high standards. We verify that your space is not only clean but also safe and healthy for occupancy.
