Mitigation with SERVPRO is easy!

In the midst of a water emergency there two processes that are needed to return your home to ‘like it never happened’ status - Mitigation and Restoration.

The process of mitigation is the first vital step in addressing the water emergency. Whether your home has been affected by a leaking pipe or a spring storm caved in your roof, the unwanted water must be extracted. SERVPRO Duncanville/Desoto has technicians that are specifically trained to effectively mitigate the water from your home or commercial property. On arrival they will remove the damaged materials, such as dry wall, carpet and flooring, and assess the structural integrity of your home. They will also use commercial grade equipment to dry out the affected areas and take any other precautions needed to protect the property.

Once the water has been removed from your home or commercial property, the restoration process can begin. SERVPRO Duncanville/Desoto will begin working to eliminate mold, repair or replace any damaged materials, and test the humidity and moisture levels in effort to ensure all water issues have been resolved. Once the restoration has been completed, our goal is to leave your property in ‘like it never happened’ condition.

A water emergency can be devastating, but with SERVPRO Duncanville/Desoto there to help, the effects can be minimalized by our trained professionals.
