How SERVPRO of Stamford Gets Rid of Flood Odors

2/5/2020 (Permalink)

After a flood or other water damage in your home or business, foul odors often linger, even after the visible water is extracted. Unfortunately, these odors can mean there is mold growth present.  These smells will not disappear with time alone. SERVPRO of Stamford is skilled in removing these odors completely, and use two distinct steps to do so.

1. Making Sure The Area Is Actually Dry

For very small water damages, opening a window or running a household fan can do the trick.  But when there is anything more than that, industrial solutions are necessary.  We utilize specialized equipment to ensure that no moisture from the damage remains in the affected area.  Using a combination of high-powered fans and dehumidifiers, we make sure affected material, as well as the air has returned to preloss levels.

2. Using Disinfectants On Affected Areas

As discussed above, many post-damage odors come from mold growth.  To make sure that this does not occur, SERVPRO of Stamford uses an array of disinfectants on any area that may need it. These solutions treat the area, and effectively stops any mold growth before it occurs, as well as eliminating any spores that have already begun to develop. 

SERVPRO of Stamford has the skilled technicians and specialized equipment to get the job done the right way, which prevents the risk of secondary damage.
