Flooding and Water Damage Restoration in West Oakland, CA

With so many living around the port in West Oakland, our professionals understand how heightened the losses and disasters' probabilities become. Water disasters are among the most common of these situations and can rapidly spread to the point of being out of control in area homes and commercial properties. With many warehouses along the coastline, content relocation and cleaning can prevent considerable losses in water emergencies.

Water Removal and Extraction Solutions in West Oakland 

Mitigation is one of the initial phases of restoration our professionals begin upon arrival to a damaged home. Removing any pooling water is critical to reducing the spread and severity of water disasters. With high porosity flooring materials, water can spread quickly to less accessible areas of the property, such as structural cavities and subflooring. For this reason, we utilize a combination of leading extraction and water removal equipment from our inventory, including: 

  • Electric submersible pumps
  • Weighted extractors
  • Wet vacuums 

Structural Drying and Moisture Removal 

When it comes to drying your home after a water disaster, there are also multiple strategies to complete this task. Drying is the foundational element of successful water restoration, which means it is an action that often requires the greatest combination of tools in our inventory. Depending on the severity and placement of water damage, we can utilize various air movers and dehumidifiers to manage the most significant moisture concerns.

Our Restoration Process

Every water damage event is a little different and requires a unique solution, but the general process stays the same. The steps listed below illustrate our process for the “typical” water damage emergency.

1.  Emergency Contact

The restoration process begins when you call us. Our consultant will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the equipment and resources that may be needed.

2. Inspection and Damage Assessment

We carefully inspect your property’s water damage, determining the type of water damage and the areas affected. This is a crucial step to creating an effective plan of action that will result in a successful restoration.

3. Water Removal / Water Extraction

Typically, hundreds or thousands of gallons of water are removed using our powerful pumps and vacuums during the water removal process. We start this process as soon as possible to minimize further damage and to help prevent mold growth.

4. Drying and Dehumidification

After the bulk of the water has been removed, we use specialized equipment to target the water that’s harder to access. Our Professionals use less intrusive, scientific drying methods to draw the remaining water and moisture from your property with air movers and dehumidifiers.

5. Cleaning and Sanitizing

Water damage also affects your belongings, like furniture, clothing, and personal items. We can clean restorable items using a number of specialized cleaning techniques. We also disinfect with antimicrobial treatments and remove odors using industrial air scrubbers and fogging equipment.

6. Restoration

The last step is restoring your home or business back to its pre-water damage condition. The restoration step can be relatively minor, such as replacing a few drywall panels, or could include major reconstruction, such as rebuilding entire rooms of a home or business.
