Proven Techniques to Restore your Home After Water Damage

The wetness that results from water damage events may cause unnecessary damage to your contents and interior finishes. It means acting quickly, and letting professionals restore your property can reduce the additional damage. Never opt for permanent repairs until your Slidell property is thoroughly dry. Let us look at some of the restorative techniques we put in place when attending to such situations.

Water damage may make subfloors in your Slidell property swell or separate. Where possible, our SERVPRO technicians replace the affected layers or sections to prevent further buckling of the underlying coverings. Before installing new coverings, we check for warping and make sure the subflooring is thoroughly dry. Space heaters, air movers, and dehumidifiers are part of the tools we use to speed up the drying process.

Water Damage Restoration

In instances where wooden floors have already experienced swelling, our SERVPRO technicians prevent buckling by carefully removing the affected boards. If we deal with sheet flooring and notice that the water has penetrated the open areas, we remove the whole sheet. Usually, cleaning and drying the floors is necessary before any repair or replacement work can begin.

Spotting is another challenge that furniture with microfiber coverings experiences. It occurs when the fabrics develop patches or water lines. We have the experience and tested techniques of restoring furnishings that have experienced water spotting. You can also call us to address the color bleeds that leave stains on walls and flooring. Wood can create conditions for mold growth when the water is not extracted as soon as possible. That is why we immediately dry your furnishings. By doing that, we may prevent odors and unsightly stains from developing.


At SERVPRO of Slidell, we're Faster to Any Size Disaster, whether it is storm, mold, fire, or water damage related. Our goal is to return your commercial or residential property to its former conditions by using proven techniques. You can learn more about our restoration work by calling (985) 649-1516.
