Why is Water Mitigation Necessary?
Mitigation is a crucial step in any water restoration project. We arrive at your property and assess the source of the water damage to repair it and keep the issue from worsening. The course of mitigation depends on several factors, such as:
-
Building materials impacted
-
The type of water damage/contaminants
-
Airflow in the impacted areas
-
Rooms and floors impacted
-
Contents impacted
We consider all areas when selecting the best processes for restoration after mitigation. For example, laminate flooring can be challenging to restore as it is known to soak up and hold moisture within the subflooring.
Can I Prevent Water Damage?
It is not possible to prevent every water incident. However, you can take steps to prepare your Dunwoody home in case of a water mishap and prevent further damage.
-
Install a sump pump for the lowest level of your property
-
Check areas under cabinets and around piping for potential leaks
