Frozen and Burst Pipe Cleanup Services
SERVPRO of Branford/Shoreline can completely restore all damage from a burst pipe in your East Haven home. A Project Manager will meet with you on site to explain our services and the anticipated water damage cleanup timeline.
Our burst pipe cleanup process includes:
Emergency Contact
When you call SERVPRO of Branford/Shoreline, a representative will ask questions about your loss so that our team is fully prepared when they arrive at your property. Your representative will ask when the pipe burst, where is the pipe located, where the affected areas are in your home, if the water has stopped flowing, whether or not mold and begun to grow, and if you've filed an insurance claim.
Water Removal & Cleanup
Our team arrives on site and immediately begins to remove any standing water using commercial grade equipment. We work quickly to prevent mold growth and make it more likely carpets, trim, or flooring can be saved.
Drying Process
Once all standing water has been cleaned up, commercial grade drying equipment is setup throughout your home. Depending on the extend of your damages, walls, floors, or ceilings may be opened up to aid in the drying process. You can expect fans, dehumidifiers, floor drying mats, and more. This equipment will not be removed until your property has been confirmed dry.
Mold Remediation
When water damage occurs, mold is always a possibility. Our team will remediate mold as needed. Mold usually becomes a problem when the water damage from leaking or burst pipes isn't immediately addressed.
Restoration
Once equipment has been removed from your home, restoration can begin. Depending on the extent of damages, this may range from replacing drywall to installing a new carpet. Our in-house construction division can seamlessly take over your project to ensure your burst pipe is "Like it never even happened."
As a professional water damage restoration company, SERVPRO of Branford/Shoreline has all the experience and tools needed to bring your home back to pre-damage conditions.
