Our Customers Say
"Our family has hired ServiceMaster Advantage on many occasions, and we have been impressed every single time. Last year we experienced severe flooding in our basement. Jeff Turner deployed his recovery team immediately. The service techs were very professional and efficient. This spring, we had more flooding in our window wells. Again, ServiceMaster Advantage responded right away and were at my home within the hour to pump water before it reached the interior of my home. And just last week, I hired ServiceMaster to clean carpets and upholstery. Again, I was impressed. They carpet cleaner used a very safe, non-toxic method to clean and pulled up stains that I didn't think could be removed. I highly recommend ServiceMaster Advantage for disaster recovery or cleaning needs.

How we dry out wet homes or businesses

Our technicians employ the latest industry standard techniques to dry the entire structure following water damage.

Our technicians employ the latest industry standard techniques to dry the entire structure following water damage.

Probably the most difficult part of a water damage restoration job is determining what materials can be safely dried and what should be removed. Many factors have to be considered - type of water, length of time, possible contamination, porosity of the material, etc. - before developing a drying plan for that particular building.

Once a drying plan has been established, the appropriate drying equipment is installed. All the excess moisture must be evaporated out of the wet materials without being allowed to condense in other areas. So, typically, air movement, dehumification, and/or HVAC control is employed in the process.

Technicians monitor progress and make equipment adjustments as often as required to make sure the desired drying progress is achieved.
