Dallas Winter Storm Damage Restoration Services
1/17/2018 (Permalink)
Storms are not a very common occurrence in Texas. In Dallas, we see just a few days of freezing temperatures in a year. Every few years, a hail storm strong enough to cause damage can occur. Otherwise, we have the luxury of enjoyable temperate or warm temperatures for the majority of the year.
Yet, when there is a winter storm in Dallas, we see a sharp increase in properties that experience storm damage. From flooded homes due to frozen water pipes bursting, to fire damages caused by portable heaters, we are always ready to help.
SERVPRO of North Irving is always active during Dallas storm damage situations.
We offer the following services:
Dallas Water Damage Restoration or Flood Damage
Water damage restoration is usually caused by frozen water pipes that have burst.
Fast water removal is important to prevent further damage to your wet items. This is why we are available 24 hours a day, every day of the year, to start your Dallas water damage restoration.
When we arrive, we will inspect your property and determine the extent of the damage. We will also determine the water category. If the water is Category 2 or Category 3, we will spray sanitizer on all affected areas.
Then, we will perform water removal services. Our technicians will either use a truck mounted pump or other water extraction equipment to remove the water quickly. Moving furniture in affected rooms will likely be necessary to reach every area of the room. If the rooms are carpeted and affected by Cat 2 or Cat 3 water, both the carpet and the pad may have to be removed.
When all standing water is gone, we will place drying equipment in your home. Our equipment will be strategically placed and other modifications will be made to your room to ensure our drying process is effective.
Every day afterward, a technician will stop by your property for an equipment check. This means we will:
- Monitor all equipment to make sure it’s working effectively.
- Monitor the atmospheric conditions of your property to make sure the humidity and temperature are conducive to drying. We do this to prevent mold growth.
- All data is recorded and sent to your insurance adjuster to validate our drying process.
Fire Damage Restoration
Fire damages are common during the winter months in Dallas Texas. Many of them are caused by improperly used space heaters or fireplaces. The holidays also see an increase in oven fires and kitchen fires.
Even when a fire hasn’t happened, smoke damage restoration is necessary when candles and fireplaces are not watched carefully.
Regardless of the reason for the smoke and fire damage, we provide:
Full Service Fire and Smoke Restoration Process
We are one of the few fire damage restoration companies in North Texas that is full service. We do everything from cleaning and restoration of your property and everything inside of it, to reconstruction, to 24 hour emergency response service. We are have honed our fire damage restoration process after 30 years of experience.
Emergency Roof Tarp
We will tarp the fire damaged portion of your roof using thick, weatherproof plastic. This will prevent further precipitation from entering your home until the roof can be permanently fixed. Our reconstruction division will contact your insurance company and request permanent roof replacement.
Board Up
We will board up any damaged portion of your property like doors and windows. This will prevent precipitation from entering your home, deter theft, and keep unauthorized persons from entering your property. If our team cannot perform a board up due to bad weather, we will hire a 24 hour live security guard to monitor your property.
Temporary Fencing
We can install a temporary fence around your property to deter the public from entering and provide an extra layer of security.
Security Guard
Sometimes it’s not possible to perform emergency boards ups or install temporary fencing. This may be true in the middle of a storm, for example. When this situation happens, we will assign a security guard to protect your property. After the storm cleans, our technicians will provide emergency services.
Moving Services
Moving services are often necessary after a fire damage. This is especially the case when the majority or entire property has been affected by smoke and soot.
We will pack out your property’s household items and take them to our facility where they will be cleaned and stored. Once your property has been cleaned and reconstruction is complete, we will deliver the items back to you. If you have the need to live in a temporary residence, we are also glad to deliver your items there.
Storage
When moving services are needed, we will provide storage space to keep your items safe until they can be returned.
Textile Cleaning
If you have textiles that have been affected by Category 2 Water or Category 3 water, they will be taken to our facility for cleaning. Textiles include clothing, plush animals, and shoes. We can also clean clothing that requires smoke odor removal, soot removal, or mold removal.
We are one of the few Esporta certified firms in North Texas. Our business will pack your damaged clothing and take it back to our in house cleaning facility. Our Esporta cleaning technicians have cleaned thousands of pieces of clothing with a success rate of over 85%. This rate of success is among the highest in the clothing cleaning industry.
Most of our customers need some of their clothes back immediately to continue living their day to day life. We understand this need, which is why priority clothing can be cleaned and returned in as little as 72 hours. The rest of your wardrobe will be cleaned and kept in storage until you can receive your entire delivery.
