Skilled Water Removal and Desiccation Protects Floors and Wood Cabinetry in Wilmington Residences

Cleaning up after a dinner party in your Wilmington residence can overload your dishwasher. Leaving food still on plates, bowls, and serving platters leads to clogged drain lines, and the water inside has no other place to go. Adding extra detergent to clean up dirty dishes can also create similar effects. Water overflowing onto your floors happens with either situation.

The immediate area affected by water spewing out of your dishwasher can damage the floors and cabinets in your home, making water removal in Wilmington an immediate need. SERVPRO helps by getting everything cleaned up and dry again, helping keep your wood cabinets and floors in the kitchen from becoming damaged permanently. Our goal is to make everything “Like it never even happened” and as inexpensively as possible.

With water removal we are able to get up all the soapy water from the area with small-sized but powerful pumps that pull the water into our large tanks. These tanks, mounted on one of our Green Fleet's trucks, uses a motorized pump to suction the water up through the wands reaching underneath your refrigerator, inside cabinets, and even underneath those cabinets. Water removal in these areas helps prevent the effects of water on veneers and painted surfaces.

The same tubing used for the handheld extraction wands also works with our Injectidry mats, making it possible to continue drying the floors with localized heat and air currents. Increasing the rate of evaporation like this can keep floors from cupping, buckling, or splintering. Composite flooring that becomes saturated without drying almost always requires replacing because of the disintegration of individual tiles that occurs.

The ability to restore your house's structure before it becomes damaged to the point of requiring removal and replacement of expensive elements, which saves you from any unnecessary and significant expense, makes SERVPRO of New Hanover's services more valuable to you and other homeowners. However, we need you to partner with us as soon as an emergency develops by making that first call to (910) 762-8180. When your Leland, Kure Beach, or Elizabethtown home needs water removal, every second counts.
