Flooding and Water Damage Restoration in Lauderdale, MN

While a smaller community within the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, our location ensures we can address water damages occurring in Lauderdale homes fast. Much of the work that we do hinges on a fast response, as water disasters often feature a 48-hour window where effects can worsen. Mitigation should begin quickly to protect the property and its contents, which can often become irreparably damaged once this two-day window has passed without water removal or drying efforts starting.

The Advantages of Water Mitigation in Lauderdale 

The choices made to benefit a property from the first arrival of qualified technicians embody the overall mitigation phase. In many situations, repairs and reconstruction are often required, which begin with controlled demolition our general contractors can complete during this mitigation stage. Controlled demolition is among several initial steps that our technicians can take to reduce the total loss experienced in a damaged home. Some of the other options include:

  • Extraction
  • Debris Removal
  • Content Relocation and Cleaning
  • Deodorization
  • Repairs

Content and Water Damage Cleanup in Lauderdale Homes 

Caring for your personal belongings and cleaning up after water disasters are two of the main steps in the restoration of your home after water damage. Content cleaning can often happen on-site if exposure is limited. When contaminants exist or direct water exposure occurs over a prolonged period, recovery efforts for these individual items required more intricate corrective actions occurring at our nearby SERVPRO facility.

Our Restoration Process

Every water damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” water damage emergency.

1.  Emergency Contact

When you call us, our consultant will guide you through several questions that will help us respond to your water emergency more quickly and efficiently. This initial contact is an important part of a fast, effective restoration.

2. Inspection and Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of your water damage at this stage is crucial to developing a plan of action. We inspect and test the damaged area to determine the extent of damage and how far the moisture has traveled to ensure proper and complete restoration.

3. Water Removal / Water Extraction

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes the majority of the water. We use powerful pumps and vacuum units to quickly remove hundreds or thousands of gallons from your property which helps prevent secondary water damage and mold growth.

4. Drying and Dehumidification

We use specialized equipment to remove the remaining water which is harder to access. Our Professionals will use room measurements, temperature, and relative humidity to determine the optimal number of air movers and dehumidifiers needed to dry your home or business.

5. Cleaning and Sanitizing

Water damage also affects your belongings, like furniture, clothing, and personal items. We can clean restorable items using a number of specialized cleaning techniques. We also disinfect with antimicrobial treatments and remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

6. Restoration

The last step is restoring your home or business back to its pre-water damage condition. The restoration step can be relatively minor, such as replacing a few drywall panels, or could include major reconstruction, such as rebuilding entire rooms of a home or business.
