If part of your home has been flooded by ruptured pipes or a disastrous storm, it’s easy to panic. After all, standing water can cause extensive damage to your home. Attempt to remain calm. The first thing to do is contact Thomas Valley Restoration DKI. Our Kamloops renovation contractors know the actions to take to restore your home after a flood. Here’s what you can expect Kamloops renovation contractors to do when they arrive at your home: Assess the damage: Contractors will walk around your home to assess the water damage. This assessment allows contractors to determine the equipment that’s required to clean up your home.
Take action to prevent additional damage: If parts of your home are filled with standing water, we’ll use a special vacuum to suck up any standing water. The amount of time this step takes depends on the amount of water in your home. Your contractor will look for sources of leaking water. Dry out your home: After the water has been removed, the contractors will dry your home with specialized fans. Contractors may have to remove your carpet. In some instances, they may have to make small holes in your walls to help them dry faster.
Monitor the process: Depending on the extent of the flood, it can take a few hours or days to dry your home out. It’s important for you to be patient. Throughout the process, our contractors will monitor the areas to ensure that the process is going smoothly. After the drying process is complete, you may have to contact a general contractor to perform additional work on your home. Need emergency Kamloops renovation contractors?
