SERVPRO Commercial Water Damage Restoration Technicians in Jamestown Perform Regular Monitoring of Drying Process to Ensure Minimum Business Interruption.
What is monitoring during the restoration process?
No two water emergencies are the same. For Jamestown businesses, it is not uncommon to have unique architecture or open-plan spaces. These larger spaces can counteract conventional drying methods and may require a tailored approach. Once demolition, water extraction, and cleaning processes are complete, SERVPRO technicians can set up drying equipment in the property. Drying out residual moisture takes significantly longer than pumping or extracting. However, it is essential to ensure that your business premises do not suffer secondary issues like mold growth. Technicians frequently monitor the drying process to optimize drying conditions on your premises.
What are the principles of dry monitoring?
- Inspect, observe and document areas of the property
- Consider and apply potential changes by repositioning equipment
- Adjust the drying system by bringing in or removing equipment
What equipment is used for monitoring?
Monitoring equipment for commercial water damage restoration in your Jamestown business relies on specific detection devices. This equipment may include hygrometers, sensors, or moisture meters. Usually, our technicians combine these readings with initial impressions and experience. Checking that dehumidifiers are pulling enough moisture out of the air is one example of monitoring. If the results could be improved, we could deploy more dehumidifiers or remove air-movers from the environment to speed up drying times. Repositioning equipment may also be sufficient to dry walls or other areas.
When is the restoration complete?
- Once drying equipment is removed from the property
- After a Crew chief conducts a final walkthrough with you to explain work done
- When you the premises manager sign a certificate of satisfaction
