We have the advanced equipment, resources and training to handle any mold remediation situation.

Our teams at SERVPRO of Mankato/ Owatonna are ready and prepared for any water damage that can occur to your home or business.

Moisture hides in cracks, under floors, behind baseboards, within drywall and the list can go on and on and we’ve seen it all.  Our certified and trained Water Restoration Technicians have the best professional equipment to measure the moisture in your home and in all those unsuspecting place.  You just never know where moisture can hide but if it’s not found and professionally dried, secondary damage such as mold can occur. 

Trust the professionals. Here is an outline of the water damage restoration process below:

1. The restoration process begins when you call us. Our team will ask pertinent questions to help us better understand the equipment and resources to bring.
2. While on site at your property, we determine the scope of your water damage at the current stage. Then, we inspect and test to determine the extent of damage and how far the moisture has traveled to ensure proper and complete restoration.
3. The water removal process begins immediately, and our team removes the majority of the water by using powerful industrial pumps and vacuum extraction units to quickly remove hundreds or thousands of gallons of water from your property, which helps prevent secondary water damage and possible mold growth.
4. Our Water Restoration Technicians will take room measurements, temperature readings, and relative humidity readings to determine the optimal number of commercial air movers and dehumidifiers needed to dry your home or business.
5. In addition we clean, remove, and pack up any contents that are in your space as requested.  We clean all the restorable items and structures damaged by the water. We are adept at cleaning contents using an array of techniques and solutions. Our professionals are trained to provide sanitizing treatments and to remove odors and deodorize your property.
6. Restoration is the process of restoring your home or business to its pre-water damage condition.  It could take a day or many days depending on the damage. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and installing new carpet, or may entail major repairs, such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
7. We will ensure that you understand each step of the process and document all work with photos, meter readings, and provide this to your insurance team if you chose to make an insurance claim as well as communicate directly with your adjuster.
