SERVPRO® Protects Your Sevierville Property from Water Damage
Sevierville is named after John Sevier, who was the first governor of Tennessee. The area has beautiful parks like Sevierville Parks & Recreation, Sevierville Greenway, and Sevier County Park. Cultural events are common, as residents partake in the Dumplin Valley Bluegrass Festival and Bloomin' Barbeque & Bluegrass Festival. The town is also known primarily as the hometown of country music legend Dolly Parton.
When water intrudes, effective and rapid water mitigation in Sevierville is crucial. The kind of intervention required to curb the dangers matters. Some homeowners may be tempted to take on the task because what is visible to their eyes is usually a fraction of the damage from moisture intrusion. A water damage restoration expert should conduct the process. SERVPRO professionals can take on the water mitigation task head-on as we are equipped with advanced resources.
Common issues with water damage to a property
- Warped floors
- Saggy ceiling
- Diminished insulation ability
- Mold growth on personal belongings and structural materials
Insulation materials are porous and can become soaked when exposed to water. As a result, they lose their ability to regulate a home’s temperature, which leads to higher energy bills.
Effective Mitigation Measures Taken by SERVPRO Pros
To mitigate moisture damage, we follow certain steps, typically entailing the following;
Assessing the extent of water intrusion
- Extracting visible water
- Drying and dehumidifying all affected area
- Cleaning and sanitizing
SERVPRO crews begin with a thorough assessment upon arrival to learn the extent of the damage and the source of water intrusion. We thoroughly evaluate the affected areas and materials to determine the right mitigation strategy. We then remove any standing water from the property. This may involve using submersible pumps, wet/dry vacuums, or specialized equipment like stationary tools, light wands, and self-propelled extraction tools to extract water from floors, carpets, and other surfaces.
