Raleigh Home and Business Owners Are Best Serviced by Calling SERVPRO for Water, Fire, Mold, Flooding, and Cleaning Help. We Beat the Elements!

No two disasters are the same, but our qualified professionals can help to overcome damaging effects with premier equipment, expertise, and fast response.

These days, restoration services involved much more than just cleaning up after a disaster strikes your Raleigh home or business. As a leading team in North Carolina, we have practical solutions for mitigation, restoration, reconstruction, and content management, including an active inventory of damaged goods. As a locally owned and operated facility, we care about the communities we serve and the people we can help through our experience and industry-leading equipment.

Water

There is no mistaking how common water loss incidents can be for Raleigh homes and commercial properties, especially when you consider the frequency of emergencies like broken pipes, malfunctioning appliances, clogged air conditioning condensers, or other unexpected situations that could arise. Preparedness for these situations is critical, and it allows our experienced professionals the opportunity to arrive within hours of the first notice of loss. Mitigation that begins quickly can effectively reduce costs and losses.

Repairs and Mitigation Solutions

Mitigation alone is one of the most effective practices that our SERVPRO team can begin for Garner and Zebulon homes. This phase of our recovery focuses exclusively on reducing the severity of loss through immediate actions such as water removal, surface cleaning, debris removal, and controlled demolition. The blending of general contracting with restoration services is made more efficient by our full roster of building trade professionals on staff.

How Can My Home Get Dry?

As with all water loss situations, we must focus most on the solutions necessary to dry your Raleigh property thoroughly. Often this begins with identifying the migration of water throughout the house, and this is usually completed with surface moisture meters, probing moisture detectors, and thermal imagery. Identifying damp pockets can help our responding technicians better place drying equipment such as: 

• Air Movers
• Dehumidifiers
• Drying Mats
• Positive Pressure Systems 

Storm

The positioning of our state leaves much of the greater Raleigh area, including areas like Knightdale and Garner, vulnerable to powerful storm systems passing through the region. Hurricanes can be among the worst of these conditions, but tropical storms, windstorms, and even torrential rain can also be destructive under the right circumstances. How our team responds to these emergencies can make the difference in the overall damage that your property experiences.

Construction Solutions and Repairs

Though flooding can often be a concern with your Raleigh home or business's structural breaches, much of this threat cannot be addressed until vulnerabilities in the structure have been resolved. Emergency services often get conducted by our general contractors, primarily because these efforts often hinge on sealing up openings created by storm losses or other compromising conditions. Some of the immediate construction solutions that we can implement upon arrival include:

• Roof Tarping
• Temporary Fencing
• Tree Removal
• Board Up 

Water Removal After Flooding

With the primary structural concerns addressed, we can turn our attention to standing water and other flood effects spreading throughout the property. The best methods of protecting your Raleigh home or business rely most on our effective extraction solutions to eliminate standing water concerns. While many tools can be used in this effort, we often rely most on submersible pumps, wet vacuums, trash pumps, and other water removal tools.

Fire

We pay close attention to the fire damaging events in Raleigh and the surrounding areas that we also serve for active emergencies. Because of our status as a preferred vendor with many local and major insurance providers, our knowledge of current fire loss situations and progress can help us mobilize our technicians and equipment more efficiently even before we have been notified. Because fire losses are a common threat to area properties, we keep our technicians and equipment readily available to roll out fast in emergencies.

Debris Removal and Content Management

We can offer many emergency services, but debris removal and content management are among the most important. Remnants of burned construction materials and partially combusted contents can make conditions like odors, smoke, soot, and other threats more concentrated. Content management focuses on protecting your personal belongings that have become exposed to fire loss effects. Our pack-out process moves your possessions to our nearby facility for inspection and recovery. Some of the actions taken with your items in our care include:

• Focused Surface Cleaning
• Deodorization
• Drying
• Safe Storage

How Can My Home Get Cleaned After a Fire Loss?

Between surface cleaning for oily residues and other coatings on the walls and floors of your Raleigh home to air quality control for circulating contaminants and soot particles, cleaning your home is one of the most critical efforts that our fire restoration technicians can undertake after an emergency. We have multiple potent cleaning products, practices, and equipment to make this phase efficient and effective.

Commercial

In our region, many businesses become victims of water losses, fire losses, and mold growth. As challenging as any of these individual losses might be, and efficient and fast response amid the crisis can help keep your doors open. It is estimated that nearly half of business is damaged from disasters never reopen. Because there are so many quality commercial properties here in Raleigh, we strive to meet our customers' priorities and demands to keep their business going, however we can.

What is a Large Loss Recovery Team?

Because many of the commercial properties throughout Raleigh and Garner are several thousand square feet in size, a single team is often not enough to overcome the substantial loss incident we encounter. As a large loss recovery team, we pool our resources with other sister franchises in our network to ensure that we have the necessary personnel, equipment, and experience to address even the most considerable loss incidents that our area can endure.

Safe and Sanitary Environments in Your Business

Premier cleaning services can mean both the restoration and renewal of your Raleigh business as needed. More recently, it has filled a necessary void in safe and sanitary operations for your facility. Certified: SERVPRO Cleaned is our defensive cleaning program designed to showcase the top products, practices, and equipment to create an ongoing safe environment for your staff and customers.
