How We Tackle Water Damage After Firefighting Efforts
In Lakeville, restoring a home after a fire involves more than just dealing with the fire damage. A key part of the process is managing the water damage caused by firefighting efforts. At Lightspeed Restoration of Twin Cities East Metro, we handle both aspects to ensure your home gets back to normal.
How We Handle Fire Damage Restoration
When a fire impacts your Lakeville home, acting fast is crucial. Here’s how we approach the restoration:
1. Initial Assessment: We begin by assessing the damage from both the fire and the water used to put it out. Inspection helps us understand what needs to be done and plan our restoration efforts accordingly.
2. Board-Up and Tarping: To protect your home from further damage, we quickly board up broken windows and cover any exposed areas with tarps. This step helps shield your property from weather and unauthorized access.
3. Water Extraction: Water from fire fighting can cause additional problems if not removed promptly. We utilize powerful pumps and vacuums to extract all standing water, which helps prevent further issues and speeds up drying.
4. Drying and Dehumidification: After removing the water, we deploy dehumidifiers and air movers to dry out your home thoroughly. This helps stop mold growth and prevents structural damage.
5. Smoke and Soot Cleanup: Smoke and soot can leave behind persistent stains and odors. We use formulated cleaning agents and equipment to remove these residues and make your home smell fresh again.
6. Restoration and Repair: Finally, we repair and restore your home to its pre-fire condition. This includes rebuilding damaged areas, repainting, and replacing any materials that were affected.
