SERVPRO Offers Water Mitigation for Carol Stream Fire-Damaged Homes

Any fire within your Carol Stream home can bring a broad range of damage. Not only will charred debris become an issue, but you also have to think of the impact of any water or chemicals used to extinguish the blaze. SERVPRO mitigates all leftover moisture and the corrosive byproducts of the fire – soot and smoke – to ensure secondary damage does not become an issue. We’re Faster to Any Size Disaster, but also give local homeowners peace of mind that the job gets done right the first time!

For several reasons, water mitigation in Carol Stream is critical with house fire cleanup. The powerful water from fire hoses causes more damage than a sprinkler system in most instances. This pressure means a lot of hidden moisture behind walls, baseboards, under cabinets, and flooring. SERVPRO acts fast to:

• Set up drying equipment, such as fans, air movers and dehumidifiers
• Initiate water removal services to begin pulling up any standing water
• Utilize moisture detection devices to ensure no moisture gets left behind
• Use air scrubbers with HEPA filtration to pull odorous particles from the air

Whenever there is possible water damage in fire damaged homes, there is always the potential for mold growth. Spores might begin to colonize in as little as 24 hours, eating away at drywall, wood, and floorboards. SERVPRO takes all factors into consideration as we formulate our plan for drying, restoration, and cleanup.

Before fire restoration gets finished, new materials get installed, and all surfaces get cleaned, sanitized, and deodorized to make everything Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned!

The team at SERVPRO of Carol Stream/East Bloomingdale is available whenever you require water mitigation and restoration after a fire event. You can reach us any time, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, by calling (630) 830-6236.
