Procedural Water Removal from Downtown Chicago Properties
8/19/2024 (Permalink)
Limiting the Impact of Water Damage in Downtown Chicago
If there is a water leak at your property, you may experience more than physical damage. There are unexpected disruptions to your daily routines until water removal procedures are executed. Afterward, you may also need to hop around facilities like Sephora, Neiman Marcus, Nike Chicago, Wish Kids and the entire Magnificent Mile, looking for items to replace the valuables that moisture exposure ruins in your house. SERVPRO® executes procedural water extraction, saving your time and valuables and limiting inconveniences. For severe cases, we aim to help you avoid seeking extended accommodation in facilities like The Drake, Four Seasons Hotel Chicago or Kasa South Loop Chicago as you wait for normalcy at your property.
Successful water removal from Downtown Chicago properties requires careful planning and timely execution. Having the correct information is the only way to guarantee the desired outcome. SERVPRO can readily find information using advanced probing equipment, including thermo-hygrometers and penetrative moisture meters. Thermal cameras trace moisture migration even in the most complex layouts in condos like The Reed, Cirrus, Riverview or Marina Towers.
Some of the information we focus on includes
- The water volume involved
- Percentage of porous and semi-porous materials involved
- Equipment efficiency
Combining the information gathered about the leak with general details about the property ensures the choice of suitable extraction and drying equipment. In a high-rise building such as 500 Lake Shore Drive Luxury Apartments, we can use portable extractors to remove water pooling inside the premises and trailered-desiccant dehumidifiers set up outside the structure for drying.
Opening up structural areas helps ensure faster and more thorough drying. Our SERVPRO technicians target areas like cabinets, staircases, attics and crawl spaces. Such procedures release debris and may create hazards such as exposing electric cables or sharp objects, so maybe you can take the opportunity to visit different Chicago attractions like The Chicago Theatre, Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium or the Chicago Children's Museum as our crews perform controlled demolitions and put everything back in your premises.
