  • Safety should always come first when undertaking any restoration project. Wear protective gear and switch off all main electricity before entering your property to avoid any possible hazards. Once you've documented and assessed the extent of any damage for insurance purposes and taken photos or videos of it for assessment purposes, restoration can begin.

  • It’s a good idea to have an electrician inspect your home to ensure you don’t have any serious electrical problems. It is also worth it to hire a plumber to inspect for any leaks or damage to your plumbing system.

    The next step in any water damage restoration effort is the removal of standing water using pumps and wet/dry vacuums. The faster excess water is removed from its source, the greater your chances of avoiding further damage and mold growth.

  • After water has been extracted from an affected area, it's crucial that it be dried quickly and thoroughly in order to avoid mold growth - an inevitable threat in properties damaged by floodwaters. Opening windows, and using fans and dehumidifiers all help expedite this drying process and help avoid mold infestation that often follows water-damaged properties. Make sure to monitor humidity levels when working on your property, the high humidity in Fayetteville can make recovery efforts more complex.

    Once the drying process has begun, you can begin salvaging items by sorting those that can be repaired from those that cannot. Insulation may become waterlogged after severe instances of water damage and become compromised. To prevent further issues, it's essential that insulation be replaced and removed as quickly as possible. Professionals must also address structural damage such as weak floors, walls, and ceilings to ensure safety and integrity.

Clean and disinfect all surfaces affected by bacteria, pathogens, and other contaminants using antimicrobial and disinfectant solutions for an effective clean. This also helps kill off any mold that may have already grown. To prevent mold growth, it is wise to apply mold-resistant products on surfaces, use dehumidifiers in damp areas, and ensure proper ventilation. By taking such preventive steps, the risk of future mold development will decrease substantially.

Save receipts of all repairs, supplies and professional services you purchase to aid in filing your insurance claim to ensure you receive adequate compensation for the restoration efforts undertaken.
