Assessing the Situation

After receiving notice of your claim, Robinson Restoration will send a team of experts to assess the situation and offer their recommendations on how to proceed with the cleaning process. The team will inspect your property for any visible damage and unseen damage that might not be visible yet but could cause problems later on.

This information helps them determine how best to proceed with the cleanup process. It also helps them estimate how long it will take to complete their work.

Leak Detection

Robinson Restoration uses state-of-the-art equipment to accurately pinpoint a leak so you know where the problem is. They will also help you determine how much damage has been done by the leak, which can be crucial in determining what kind of restoration work needs to be done on your property.

Dehumidification

Dehumidification removes moisture from the air. It’s important to dehumidify your home or business when it’s damaged by water or sewage. The most common form of dehumidification is when water vapor is absorbed by a material like silica gel, which then evaporates and condenses on a cold surface.

If you do not address excess humidity, mold spores will begin to grow and spread. Removing excess moisture from the air creates a healthier environment for your family or employees. 

Extraction and Drying

The experts will perform extraction and drying to ensure that your home is fully dry before they move on to any further restoration.

The team will use powerful machinery to extract the excess water and sewage from your home. It includes using high-powered fans and dehumidifiers to remove all of the moisture in your space. They’ll also use a special vacuum that can help pull any remaining water from your carpeting or other materials, so you don’t have to worry about mold growing in those areas after we leave.

Then they’ll do sewage cleanup services for homes with backed-up drains or sewer lines damaged during an accident or natural disaster. The technicians will use state-of-the-art equipment to clean up all traces of bacteria and other harmful substances that may have leaked into your home

The sewage cleanup process takes longer than water extraction because it involves removing contaminated materials from your property before they can be disposed of properly or treated as hazardous waste by law enforcement authorities.

Once all this excess moisture has been removed, the team will ensure that your home is completely dry before they begin working on other aspects of the restoration process. It means they’ll ensure there aren’t any leaks coming through the walls or ceiling; if there are, they’ll patch them up to prevent further damage.

Getting Rid of Mold and Mildew

Mold grows in damp and humid environments. Mold can negatively affect human health, including allergic reactions, infections, and asthma.

To get rid of mold and mildew, they will disinfect the area where it’s found. They’ll remove any porous materials, such as wood or drywall, contaminated by the fungus. There are several ways they remove mold from your home:

• Vacuum the affected areas 
• Use bleach mixed with water (1 ounce per gallon) to remove stains from porous surfaces like concrete or wood floors (do not use on carpet).

Repairing Property and Restoration

After removing all the moisture from your property, they will start repairing damaged areas of your home. It includes fixing flooring, walls, ceilings, furniture, etc. They also ensure that any electrical systems are safe before they leave so that there isn’t any risk of electrocution while working on them later or during normal use by occupants.

Unfortunately, if you’re living in a town with an aging water infrastructure, water damage and sewage backup are likely to occur. When water damage and sewer backup happen, it is necessary to call in a full-service restoration contractor. Fortunately, Robinson Restoration is committed to helping people get their lives back to normal and ensuring that safe environments are restored to your home after water damage or sewage backup.
