Mitigation Involves Many Practices, All of Which Provide Efficient Pathways for Restoring and Recovering Raleigh Homes

For restoration professionals, mitigation is one of the most crucial phases of restoration. During these initial emergency services, we can determine the damage to the property and protect the house from more significant damage and destruction. Even with the overwhelming and stressful conditions that often follow water damage, direct action taken with the arrival of our SERVPRO team can make the restoration process more thorough and efficient. 

What Are the Main Objectives of Water Mitigation?

Understanding the objectives and goals of water damage mitigation for Raleigh properties can show why specific actions happen when they do. With excellent customer service being a defining characteristic of our restoration team, we take the time to ensure that affected homeowners understand mitigation actions and the desired outcomes. Some of our initial goals include:

• Content Protection - Personal belongings caught in the path of migrating water can be irreparably damaged, making it an essential service to relocate and dry these contents where necessary.

• Standing Water Removal – Pooling water of any kind can damage exposed porous materials and contents, making the removal and disposal of standing water a critical element of efficient mitigation. We use a combination of vacuums and pumps to achieve this. 

• Eliminating Moisture Pockets – Trapped water can be a damaging presence, especially in materials like flooring. We have extraction and drying tools to pull free water from materials like wood plank flooring. 

Preventing the scope and severity of water damage incidents in your home hinges on how our SERVPRO of South Cary / Apex team implements mitigation actions. Emergency services for water damage vary considerably from one property to the next, so we tailor the ideal solution to suit your home. Give us a call today at (919) 615-1160.
