An Inspection Helps Reveal the Extent of Damage

During the inspection, we carry a non-penetrating meter to check moisture damage by comparing the affected area to a non-affected area or a common dry area. If possible, SERVPRO teams assist you with stopping or containing incoming water. We take note of minor and major problems, including leaks in the roof resulting from missing, loose, or broken shingles, gutters, and vents.

Other essential aspects of the inspection include

• Assessing the water condition
• Looking for hazards
• Identifying water-damaged furniture and appliances

Because the property may have structural damage, our crews carefully inspect it. In addition, there may be physical hazards such as potential collapsing ceilings and biological hazards like sewage or hazardous materials such as mold. We instigate emergency works if necessary, like safety tests for gas and electrical utilities, boarding up, and availing temporary power sources. Since stormwater can be contaminated, our crews use gadgets such as luminometers to determine contamination levels and take control measures.
