SERVPRO Can Locate and Address Any Water Damage That Might Be Lurking in Your Raleigh Home

Although bathrooms and kitchens are designed to handle a great deal of moisture and water, there can be a time when you need to call in professionals to tackle water removal. If you suspect there has been a leak, but you cannot find it, SERVPRO has the right moisture detection tools and methods for restoring your Raleigh home. Once you call us, we send out our crew to get to the heart of the problem.

There are several telling signs that you may have water damage hidden behind walls, including:

•   Paint that seems to be discolored, peeling, or bubbling
•   Drywall that seems crumbly, moist, or spongy when you touch it
•   Unexplainable musty odors

Failing to address hidden water issues can bring on costly structural damage to your home. Our team will handle the water mitigation while using a broad range of tools. The trucks in our fleet bring devices such as extractors and pumps that remove standing water. We also have wall cavity drying equipment and moisture sensors that allow us to find hidden pockets of moisture to eliminate them.

Once we locate and extract moisture, the remainder is wicked off or evaporated with centrifugal air movers and industrial-grade dehumidifiers. Depending on the area where water damage is present, our team may also use polyethylene sheeting to create a drying chamber that will amplify drying. Everything is finished with proper sanitation and disinfection so that your interior is just “Like it never even happened.”

Water damage is no match for our skilled crew at SERVPRO of South Cary/Apex. Once you call us at (919) 615-1160, you will have the reliable, efficient restoration services you need at your door within hours.
