SERVPRO® Offers Fast and Efficient Water Damage Services in Oak Ridge

Plumbing issues and burst pipes can cause water damage to your property. Hiring professionals like SERVPRO for water restoration of your Oak Ridge home can limit the extent of this damage.   

SERVPRO techs use advanced tools and equipment during the water restoration of your Oak Ridge property. We aim to remove standing water and dry the affected area before the moisture can cause secondary damage.   

Extraction Equipment for Water Cleanup  

The first step of the water restoration process is removing the standing water from your property. SERVPRO techs use several types of extraction tools to accomplish this, including: 

• Extraction units: Our techs use high-capacity extractors to remove water from the affected area. Depending on the severity of the damage and the water volume, we use portable or truck-mounted units. 
• Submersible pumps: Techs use these pumps to extract large volumes of water from your property. They quickly remove water and help prevent further property damage. 
• Light wands: We use light wands for more delicate or less accessible areas. These tools are perfect for removing water from carpets or tight spaces, providing a gentle but effective extraction. 
• Deep extraction tools: Techs use these tools when dealing with thick carpets or pads soaked with water. These specialized tools apply weight to force more water out, leaving your carpets as dry as possible. 

Once the standing water is removed, we move on to the next step, which is to dry the affected areas.  

The Role of Air Movers in Water Damage Remediation   

Air movers are crucial in accelerating the drying process during water restoration. The powerful fans replace the moisture-laden air near the wet surfaces with drier and warmer air from dehumidifiers.   

SERVPRO techs strategically place air movers to promote evaporation, helping dry out walls, floors, and other materials.
