SERVPRO Utilizes Moisture Sensors and High Capacity Water Cleanup Equipment in Reading

Water leaks in Reading commercial buildings can cause a great deal of havoc to the business, employees, and customers. The company must shut down until water cleanup is completed, the area is dried, and moisture levels have returned to normal. Hidden water or high moisture pockets can lead to mold infestations if not removed.

That’s why SERVPRO utilizes moisture sensors during water cleanup in Reading commercial buildings to ensure no pockets of moisture remaining that could lead to further damage to the structure and/or mold infestations. Mold infestations can begin growing in 24 to 48 hours.

SERVPRO Water cleanup at commercial sites follows a proven step-by-step process to ensure the safety of our employees and clients and return to normal operations as quickly as possible.

• Safety check and water damage assessment
• Deployment of high-capacity extractors, including pumps, wet vacs with special wands for carpet and hardwood surfaces
• Deployment of air movers to blow dry air into the affected area and dehumidifiers to lower the humidity and dry the space
• Moisture sensors to detect moisture in soft materials and inside cavities
• Moisture meters to confirm materials have returned to their normal moisture content levels

Fast action by SERVPRO teams removing water and moisture and reducing humidity to normal levels reduces the opportunity for secondary damage to porous materials. These materials can absorb moisture, swell and lose structural integrity. In many cases, they need to be replaced. Our fast response and action also reduce the opportunity for mold growth and cause further damage.
