Water Damage Remediation And Deodorization For Your Grand Junction Home

A leaky kitchen sink in your Grand Junction home can create some big problems for you to deal with it. If the sink has been leaking underneath and hidden for some time, you have damage to the structure of the cabinet that it sits in, besides the cleanup of the water and moisture. There can also be mold growth and odor.

Water damage remediation for your Grand Junction residence needs to be done promptly. You can prevent additional damage if you call us at SERVPRO as soon as you discover the problem, as we arrive quickly once you alert us to your situation.

Once we have cleaned up the water mess and restored any damage, we address any odors that may be present due to the water leak. Sometimes, SERVPRO technicians need to use multiple deodorization methods to get rid of all the odors.

One method that could be used underneath your sink cabinet is direct spraying. Powered or hand pump sprayers are used to pump products onto the area affected. With water damage, direct spraying is usually used to apply disinfectants. Since this method wets the surface being treated, we use this method where discoloration is not likely, or it does not matter.

With wet fogging, solvent and water-based deodorizers can be dispensed by ULV, or ultra-low volume foggers, which generate little deodorant or particles. The particles penetrate most areas where odor particles hide.

A high-velocity exhaust fan can also be used so we can ventilate your structure both before and after deodorization. These high-velocity fans quickly ventilate buildings and shorten the length of time needed before allowing you to return to your home as usual after the deodorization.

Air scrubbers remove airborne particles, plus chemicals and odors from the air. The device draws the dirty air through several filters, capturing odors and particles, and then puts out clean air back into your home.

SERVPRO of Grand Junction understands that even after the water damage cleanup, your home in Fruita, Loma, or Mesa may still have lingering odors. So, when you call us at (970) 241-8181, you can be sure that deodorization is part of our usual process so that your home is restored to its previous state.
