Flooding is no match for SERVPRO. We are equipped and ready at a moment's notice to restore your home.

SERVPRO Will Work Hard To Reclaim Your Home From Flood Damage.

Cleanup may seem difficult after floods strike your home in Little Rock. Flood water removal is nearly impossible without the proper equipment, and water damage mitigation can be just as tough to handle. That is why it is best to contact professionals from SERVPRO who have plenty of experience dealing with these types of situations. 

How Can SERVPRO Dry My Home? 

SERVPRO has extensive experience dealing with flood damage in Little Rock homes. Our teams arrived equipped with the right tools and training to dry your home. First, we can pump the water out of your home using truck-mounted wet vacs, portable wet vacs, or submersible pumps. Once the water is pumped out, we can use the following equipment to finish the drying process: 

Air movers to dry carpeting, wall cavities, and beneath cabinets. 

Wall Cavity Ventilation System to more efficiently direct air into wall cavities. 

Venting Box Fan (Axial Fans) to move large volumes of air. These fans are more powerful than air movers and can vent odors out of rooms or can spread deodorizing fogs. 

What Drying System Does SERVPRO Use?

Air movers turn moisture that is trapped in the surfaces in your home into humidity. In order to prevent further damages, excess humidity must be removed with dehumidifiers. When dehumidifying a house, there are two systems we use:

A closed system. Closed systems are entirely shut off from the outdoor environment and solely rely on dehumidifiers to extract moisture from your home. 

An open system. This system allows for airflow from outside, but it only works when the outside air is drier and leaves homes susceptible to security breaches.

SERVPRO of Northwest Little Rock is here if you are in immediate need of flood damage mitigation. Our teams are on standby 24/7, so call us at (501) 803-9700 to begin the restoration process.
