Did you know there is a science behind the process of drying?

Did you know there is a science behind the process of drying? While your initial reaction may be to grab a few towels to mop up the mess and place a fan or two around the damaged area, the team at SERVPRO® is trained in the science of drying and follow strict industry-approved standards to help lower the chances of any secondary damages. If your business suffers water damage, SERVPRO professionals will: 

• Inspect the building to detect every component that is wet, to help prevent secondary damage from happening. 
• Measure how much moisture there is in wet materials and monitor whether the materials are drying properly. 
• Speed up Mother Nature by using professional drying equipment. 

A wet building can often dry naturally because the environment always seeks equilibrium. When materials are wet, moisture will naturally move to drier air is, indeed, drier. The only problem is, drying naturally takes too long and secondary damage may occur while the building is drying out. 

SERVPRO has been trained to use top-of-the-line equipment, including equipment to help dry hardwood floors, tough-to-reach spaces inside walls, and much more. SERVPRO uses state-of-the-art monitoring equipment and proven scientific processes to help speed the drying of your home or business.
