Water damage only spreads, making mitigation crucial to protecting your home and its furnishings.

Using Water Removal Techniques Protects Both Structure And Furniture In Minneapolis Homes

Lost water inside your home can affect more than the submerged floors. SERVPRO's IICRC-certified specialists know that to restore a home in Minneapolis fully, we need to ensure that the proper level of dryness happens quickly.

After an incident, we use different water removal methods in your Minneapolis home that pull the moisture out of the home's structure and contents. Broken water pipes can leave a house's interior saturated and because moisture travels toward dry locations, low-to-the-floor furniture can soak up water from carpeting.

While heavier furniture pieces can seem stable and sturdy, water can harm these items quickly. The same components that make a sofa seem durable can also become a detriment to that piece. Wood framing can split or become warped when left wet for too long. Some pieces contain both metal fasteners and glue. Fasteners can rust and break over time while glues can soak up water and allow pieces to slip apart.

Moisture can cause problems for the exterior of the furniture in your home, also. Colors in upholstery can bleed when wet, becoming blurred and losing their fresh look. Light-colored carpeting can end up
stained from both the colors bleeding from dust covers and wooden furniture legs. SERVPRO technicians place such furniture on wooden blocks that contain no stains or dyes and place plastic tarps under the areas where fabric s from furniture can come into contact with the carpeting below.

Water damage can also take hold within the structural aspects of your house's framework. Warped beams and crumbling drywall signify the continued presence of water, letting us know we should look for other kinds of damage that also takes lengtheir periods to develop.

Areas with stains, such as those on ceilings and the upper portions of walls and peeling paint around windows and doorways can look new again with a fresh coat of primer and paint. We work with you to find the options with the lowest costs but with the best results.

SERVPRO of Minnetonka has IICRC-trained technicians who can get your Osseo, Groveland, or Saint Paul home dry again. Water damage only spreads, making mitigation crucial to protecting your home and its furnishings. Call our crew at (952) 473-4837, so we can start making your home “Like it never even happened.”
