When is disaster recovery and restoration needed?

 
Property disaster can strike any time. It can consist of a flood, fire and mold damage situation. The most common water damage losses in New Hampshire result from burst pipes, ice dams, appliance failures and storm damage. Fire damage, which also includes soot damage, can derive from a wide variety of sources including the following: chimney fires, oil furnace puff-backs, cooking fires and electrical fires. Mold damage is frequently found in attics and basements where water intrusion, elevated moisture and humidity levels can lead to microbial growth. The cases listed above are examples of when professional disaster restoration services would be needed.
 

What are the priorities during the disaster recovery process?

 
Recovering from property disaster can be a stressful ordeal, but establishing the priorities will help clarify and streamline the process. Any reputable company that specializes in disaster restoration services should be able to execute the following initiatives for you:

  1. Safety

    – Ensuring safety for building occupants and workers must be addressed immediately. Many flood, fire and mold damage situations can pose significant health and safety risks. Those risks must be minimized at the forefront of the project.

  2. Find and fix the source of damage

    – The source of the damage must be identified and stopped. This might include fixing a burst pipe, tarping a leaking roof or repairing a malfunctioning furnace. There is no sense in cleaning up a mess if it is going to keep occurring because the source is still causing new damages.

  3. Mitigate damages

    – Damages have already been sustained to the property, but a sense of urgency should still be implemented to clean it up as quickly as possible. For example, if a property has a flood, additional damages could still occur if the water is not extracted. In this case, the standing water could travel to other parts of the structure causing additional damages.

  4. Restore property

    – The mitigation process often involves the removal and disposal of damaged materials which will need to be replaced. An example of this is a flooded carpet which has been ruined by the water. Once the area is fully cleaned and dried, the carpet should be replaced.

 

How do I find the right company for disaster restoration services?

 
Hiring for disaster restoration services is a unique process because it has to be done on a relatively quick basis. You don’t typically have weeks or even days to make a decision. Disaster cleanup is typically emergency based work and you need services immediately.
 
There are a few indicators that Merrimack, NH property owners should look for when trying to find the right company for disaster restoration services.

All I have to say is WOW and FANTASTIC. I just got done building out my new professional office with Soil-Away’s construction division and they went ABOVE and BEYOND. Scott and Mike, the carpenters are skilled artisans. The project got done on time and the project came in on budget! The finished results have been blowing people away. Much better than I could have anticipated. Anyone is welcome to come to our office, Bright Light Chiropractic in Hooksett to check out the fine work they did. Simply can’t sing enough praises for them. Sorry that the picture doesn’t do the job justice. Thank you Jack and your team. -Dr. Jay

Since day one, I’ve known the owner, Jack, to be a hard-working and selfless leader. Through the efforts of him and his team, he was able to restore my flooded restaurant to tip-top shape. I was amazed with Jack’s orderliness throughout the entire process. Jack has proven to me that he is trustworthy, as both a friend and an individual in the work environment.

Highly recommend Soil-Away. A pipe in our upstairs bathroom gave and sent water down through a wall for at least a day before we noticed water dripping through our kitchen ceiling. Our insurance put us in touch with Soil-Away and they were at our house the next morning to assess the damage and dry things out. Joe, Ray and Tom were phenomenal to work with. They explained every part of the process to us and were very professional and friendly. If you have to deal with similar issues call Soil-Away, you won’t regret it.
