Did You Know there is a science behind drying?

Did You Know...?

Did you know there is actually a science behind the process of drying? Having the knowledge of psychrometrics is essential to restoring a water damaged structure to its preloss condition.

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 of South Springfield/Agawam 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 or home suffers a water damage, SERVPRO of South Springfield/Agawam will:

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

What Exactly Does It Mean To Help "Speed Up Mother Nature?"

A wet building can often dry naturally because the environment always seeks equilibrium. When materials are wet, moisture will naturally move to drier air at the surface of the material–but only if the air is, indeed, drier. The only problem is, nature takes too long and secondary damages may occur while the building is drying out.

SERVPRO of South Springfield/Agawam Has The Tools and Equipment To Help

SERVPRO of South Springfield/Agawam has the tools and equipment to help Mother Nature along, including equipment to help dry hardwood floors, tough-to-reach spaces like inside walls, and much more. We also use state-of-the-art monitoring equipment, and a proven scientific process to help speed the drying of your home or business.

The Bottom Line?

In Agawam, Springfield, Longmeadow, Hampden County and beyond, our team has the training and equipment to help make water damage “Like it never even happened.”
