Commercial Water Removal Experts In Bristol Talk About The Different Types Of Extraction Equipment

If the plumbing system ever fails inside your Bristol dentist office, you might come into work one day and find yourself knee deep in a murky liquid. Even if the problem is not that severe, prompt commercial water removal conducted by a professional company like SERVPRO can help reduce the amount of damage that occurs. Plumbing system failures happen more often than you may think and are responsible for the majority of moisture-related problems that occur in buildings. Joints in the plumbing can wear after time and develop slow leaks or pipes can break and lose a lot of water out of even the smallest cracks. If commercial water removal is not completed quickly, wet materials can turn into breeding grounds for harmful bacterias and molds.

Once materials inside your office get wet, humidity levels inside the building rise and create an environment conducive for mold growth. Conducting prompt commercial water removal to your Bristol dentist office can help prevent secondary damage like mold or issues caused by vapor in the air from occurring. The first step to removing moisture from contents and building materials is the extraction phase. During this step, our SERVPRO restoration crew uses industrially advanced equipment to remove both standing water and moisture that exists inside saturated, porous building materials.

Depending on each specific situation and how wet materials got, we can utilize different types of equipment designed for certain items and scenarios. For example, for tight areas that do not have an excessive amount of moisture we can choose to use a portable extractor to pull out water from carpet and other flooring materials. If the water is excessive, we can use a truck-mounted, heavy-duty extractor that has a much more powerful vacuum motor.

We also have a choice in what type of tool we use during extraction. For upholstered items like couches, we often use a handheld extraction wand. For thick carpets that are saturated, we can use a weighted extractor that the operator stands on so that his weight can get used to compress the carpet and allow more moisture to get pulled out. If you ever noticed standing water inside your dentist office, call SERVPRO of Kingsport / Bristol at (423) 245-5552 any day of the week.
