When furniture is on damp or wet flooring after a pipe breaks, it can produce stains, as seen here in the picture. When SERVPRO^® of Salem/Plaistow arrives to help mitigate the situation, we put blocks and pads to lift the items to keep them from sitting on the wet areas and protect your flooring. Sometimes these stains can be removed during a carpet cleaning while other times, the insurance or customer may choose to remove the carpeting. 

During the water, fire, or mold remediation process, we have to perform demolition to fix your property. In this case, we take care in making sure what we take out is clean and ready for a contractor to put everything back together.

In this home, a water tank let go and flooded the basement. SERVPRO of Salem/Plaistow was able to move the contents affected, clean them, and dispose of what was deemed unsalvageable. Then the crews cleaned and disinfected the basement in order to dry it back to its normal conditions. 

After a water damage cleanup, in order to properly dry out the basement ceiling and floor above, we tent our equipment directly into the ceiling. This allows for a more focused drying area and usually a faster dry time. We are able to complete the job in a more timely manner when equipment can focus on the particular area needing drying versus drying a whole room.
