Flooding and Water Damage Restoration in Westwood, NJ

As the main hub of Pascack Valley, Westwood is an easy commute to NYC and home to more than 11,000. The bustle of this smaller community can still leave it as vulnerable to water damage incidents as other towns and cities we serve in Bergen County.   

Water Removal Services After Flood Damage 

 One of the first steps that our professionals can take when water damage incidents occur is to remove standing water from the premises. Surface moisture and pooling can threaten the home and its installed elements, making approaches like flood removal and extraction critical to begin returning the house to its original condition. Some water damages that require efficient water removal services include: 

  • Flooded bathrooms
  • Appliance leaks
  • Attic storm damage
  • Basement flooding
  • Garage flooding
  • Burst pipes 

Early Mitigation Solutions for Westwood Homes

 Beyond extraction, Westwood homes benefit from several other types of mitigation and emergency services. Content relocation, for example, can prevent irreparable harm caused by water exposure to sensitive furniture and personal belongings. When restoration completes, the move-back process can return these items where they belong. 

What Water Cleanup Can SERVPRO Perform for Westwood Properties? 

Water cleanup focuses most on drying and evaporation. Our foundational tools in this effort include air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers. Continual drying monitoring can show where these items should be placed for maximum efficiency.

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

The restoration process begins when you call us. Our consultant will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the equipment and resources that may be needed.

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

Typically, hundreds or thousands of gallons of water are removed using our powerful pumps and vacuums during the water removal process. We start this process as soon as possible to minimize further damage and to help prevent mold growth.

4. Drying and Dehumidification

After the bulk of the water has been removed, we use specialized equipment to target the water that’s harder to access. Our Professionals use less intrusive, scientific drying methods to draw the remaining water and moisture from your property with air movers and dehumidifiers.

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.
