Whether it’s in your home or your business, Wichita Kansas Water Damage is a serious problem and it needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Above and beyond the damage that water can do to your personal belongings or your merchandise, there are other dangers associated with standing water; it doesn’t take long before water begins to weaken walls and floors and cause critical structural damage. It can also result in biological complications, like mold and mildew, some of which can be extremely hazardous to your health, and which may require special remediation to clean up.
Specialists in water extraction can be reached 24 hours a day and can respond to your emergency in as little as an hour, bringing in the equipment and personnel they will need to begin the water removal process. The primary steps that they take include determining the source of the water, such as a broken pipe, or a storm-damaged roof, so they can cut off the supply of water into your building. Next, they need to make certain that all electrical power into the structure has been shut off for safety purposes. Following that, the building will be inspected to make certain that it is structurally safe to work in. Once that has been determined, equipment will be brought in to start getting rid of the water. This equipment varies, depending on the severity of the situation, and may include submersible pumps, wet-vacs, commercial fans, heavy-duty dehumidifiers, and any other specialized gear that is called for.
Another part of the water restoration process is called a pack-out, and basically entails the removal of any water-damaged furnishings, rugs, carpeting, and other items which can be salvaged with a little professional care and treatment. They can be dried out and deodorized so that you would never guess they had sustained any kind of damage. While all of this is occurring, you can use temporary storage to keep your personal items safe and secure until they can be returned.
