There was a down pour of rain and hail this past weekend. Which meant more flooding in our area, which is why homeowners need to call in a professional service.

Remediating Dallas, TX flooding is never a simple task. Every home is different, and any restoration company needs to be familiar with the area. SERVPRO of Metrocrest is quick to respond with a 24/7 response team. We do everything possible to start work as swiftly as possible, taking care of not just our customers, but our neighbors. 

Our response team leader begins the quick inspection. We work with your insurance adjuster if appropriate. We bring in pumps to remove the deep water. Our commercial grade machines quickly draw out the water and make it safer for our response team to enter the home. We then use extraction wands to remove surface water that the pumps cannot draw out. SERVPRO of Metrocrest personnel utilizes the same devices to remove water from carpets and wood floors. Our extraction wands also have a built-in heating unit, so we use them to begin the drying process as well. 

Technicians use moisture meters to determine if the carpets and wood are dry. If there is still a high level of moisture, we set up air movers to force warm, dry air across the surfaces to continue drawing out water trapped inside them. 

We also test the surrounding walls for high moisture content. Since many building materials are more easily damaged when wet, we first set up dehumidifiers to draw moisture from the items and the surrounding air. The machines we use can remove 25 gallons of water per day. As everything dries, we carefully use the same air movers to speed up the drying process without causing any further damage that might force us to demolish drywall or other materials.
