8/14/2020 (Permalink)
From fires and water losses to flooding and storm damage, our SERVPRO professionals stay prepared for the worst to protect your property and its occupants.
Because of the severe weather that can affect the Palmdale area and other regions that we serve, we have restoration technicians available 24/7 for whatever emergency might arise. We strive to provide a comprehensive approach to restoration and recovery so that you spend less on returning your property to preloss condition. From water and fire losses to flood and storm damages, we have talented professionals available whenever you need it to begin both mitigation and repairs simultaneously. As a locally owned and operated facility, we can often reach damaged homes and businesses within hours of the first notice of loss.
Water
Water damage can result from hundreds of different causes, making them among the most challenging restoration objectives for Palmdale homes. Among the most substantial obstacles that exist after these loss incidents is understanding the migration of water loss effects throughout the property. Surface moisture concerns are only part of the problem, and this is what makes DIY restoration hit and miss for homes in the area. Without addressing moisture concerns beyond the surface layers, conditions can persist to allow for structural deterioration and microbial threats.
What Extraction Strategies Work Best?
Among the first steps that must be taken when our team arrives at a water-damaged address is extraction. Standing water can be among the most destructive forces that your home faces because it can allow for absorption and penetration into exposed materials and contents. We have multiple tools that can help remove standing water from your Palmdale home or business, including:
- Submersible Pumps
- Wet Vacuums
- Carpet Wands
- Weighted Extractors
What Must Happen to Dry Your Home?
Drying is not as simple as it might sound for many Palmdale properties. Evaporative drying can often be quick for surface moisture concerns but becomes more challenging to address when damp pockets exist in structural cavities and under flooring. We have multiple specialty drying tools, such as positive pressure systems and floor mat drying systems, that can help reach these moisture pockets before they become more significant problems.
Fire
After a fire has taken place in your Palmdale property, it can be overwhelming to think of the steps necessary to return your property to preloss condition. Not only do emergency services and mitigation tasks begin as soon as possible, but they also have to occur under the terms set forth by your insurance provider issuing a damage claim on the property. We work closely with insurance adjusters to ensure that there are few delays in getting these essential restorative actions started.
What Are Emergency Services?
Emergency services are tasks that often precede mitigation and even job scoping for your Palmdale home. These efforts focus mostly on our in-house contractors' talents to address structural concerns such as vulnerabilities in the roof and other openings in the house. Debris removal is also vital to reducing the concentrations of smoke residues, airborne contaminants, and harsh lingering odors during this phase.
What Is Expected During Mitigation and Restoration?
There are many steps involved in returning your fire-damaged Palmdale home or business to its original condition. Each of the individual steps adds to multiple layers of loss effects that must get addressed to make the property safe once again. Understanding most of the mitigation and restoration tasks to come cannot be to appreciate your need for professional technicians. Some of these standard restorative steps include:
- Surface Cleaning
- Soot Removal
- Deodorization
- Content Cleaning
- Inventory Solutions
Commercial
After a loss incident damages your Palmdale business, you have multiple concerns. These fire and water loss situations prevent your doors from being open to your customers, but it can also permanently damage the structure without the immediate response of competent professionals like our SERVPRO team. As a large loss recovery unit, we can pool our resources with other franchises to have nearly limitless equipment, personnel, and experience for substantial disasters that affect area businesses.
When Can Cleaning and Recovery Efforts Happen?
One of the advantages of choosing our SERVPRO cleaning technicians for your Palmdale commercial property is our flexibility with scheduling. We understand that the ideal times for cleaning and restoring your property, even without a disaster, is after you have closed up shop for the day. We offer after-hours appointments to revitalize the look and feel of your facility to meet your high expectations.
How Can SERVPRO Provide Sanitary Workspaces?
Safe and sanitary spaces are more necessary than ever before in Palmdale homes and businesses. Many property owners have looked to our professional cleaning technicians for ongoing solutions to surface cleaning, disinfection, and providing sanitary environments for employees and customers. Our Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned program offers a comprehensive and intricate cleaning system involving:
- Surface Cleaning
- Air Quality Control
- Applying Disinfectant
- Antibacterial Treatment
Storm
With our proximity to the West Coast, Palmdale is in a unique position to receive much of the same devastating weather that can affect areas like Malibu and Santa Monica when powerful storms make landfall. Our preparedness for these disasters ensures that we could provide our customers with real-time construction solutions and mitigation steps to protect their property as much as possible in a crisis.
How Can We Reach Properties Quickly?
Every minute counts when storm losses exist in Palmdale. We could potentially deal with dozens or more Palmdale homes and businesses damaged simultaneously by powerful and violent weather events. Being ready to mobilize quickly can put boots on the ground to help as soon as possible, and this involves:
- Pre-stocked READY Trailers
- 24/7 Availability of Technicians
- Staffed Emergency Lines
- Centrally Located Facilities
What Must Happen to Remove Flood Damage?
Flooding is often an unavoidable effect of storm loss situations, making it a substantial obstacle for restoration technicians like ours when we reach Palmdale homes. Water removal and extraction are critical in this earliest stage because we can reduce saturation and migration of floodwater through the application of submersible pumps, carpet wands, and wet vacuums.
