Emergency Water Mitigation in St. Charles, MO

Water mitigation is the prevention or reduction of water damage to a home or business from water-related disasters.

By taking the necessary steps to mitigate water damage, you can help decrease the costs of repairing your home and prevent long-term health risks from polluted air or contaminated surfaces.

The water mitigation process includes:

• Identifying and addressing water sources.
• Removing standing water and any moisture-saturated articles.
• Installing proper drainage systems to prevent future flooding.
• Applying specialized drying techniques to minimize the spread of mold or mildew growth.
• Repairing any structural damage.
• Evaluating the need for professional cleaning services like mold and mildew removal.

This is a general water mitigation process. The actual steps can vary, depending on the situation. Contact ServiceMaster of St. Charles today for a more detailed plan based on your circumstances.

Restoration Done Correctly

The correct water removal and drying process, as part of the flood cleanup, helps to minimize overall damage. If left standing, water causes hardwood floors, loosens vinyl and causes carpets to mold.

If the water evaporates on its own, it may absorb into the ceiling tiles and other items, causing secondary damage and increasing cleanup costs in the long run. It is always best to hire a professional to clean up the flood damage the right way.

Our Process

It is our goal to restore your property as quickly and efficiently as possible. The drying and restoration may require up to three phases before completion.

• Inspection & Evaluation
• Extraction & Drying
• Restoration & Construction

If applicable, after the drying process is complete, structural damage is assessed and the repair phase can begin. At this time, drywall, ceilings and floors will be repaired, If carpet or other flooring cannot be salvaged, new carpeting, padding, flooring and possibly subflooring will be installed.

We are available 24/7 to handle emergency water damage restoration projects. Call(636) 251-5301 today orreach out online.

Tips & Tricks

After water damage to your home, your prompt action can minimize further damage. The safe, timely steps listed below can assist you in restoring your home to the condition it was in before your crisis. Incorrect actions can be costly mistakes. These "do's" and "don'ts" are guidelines for your information and guidance.

Do's

• If the outside temperature is above 60 degrees, use dehumidifiers if available.
• Use fans to circulate the air and assist in drying.
• Remove as much water as possible by mopping and blotting.
• Wipe furniture dry.
• Lift draperies off carpet, loop through a coat hanger, and place the hanger on the drapery rod.
• Prop up wet furniture cushions for even drying and place small wood blocks or aluminum foil under furniture legs.
• Remove wet area rugs or other floor coverings.
• Open furniture drawers, closet doors, and luggage to enhance drying.
• Move photos, paintings, and art objects to a safe, dry location.
• Remove wet fabrics and dry them as soon as possible. Hang furs and leather goods to dry separately at room temperature.
• Remove damp books from shelves and spread out to dry.
• If damage occurs during a cool season, leave heat on; if in summer, use an air conditioner if available.

Don'ts

• Do not use an ordinary household vacuum to remove water.
• Do not use electrical appliances while on wet carpet or wet floors.
• Do not go into rooms with standing water if the electricity is still on.
