How it works

The restoration process

1

Initial assessment

A technician inspects the affected areas of your Hockessin property and identifies the source and extent of the water intrusion.

2

Mitigation plan

Based on the assessment, a mitigation plan is put together - what needs extracting, drying, or removing, and roughly how long it will take.

3

Water extraction

Standing water is removed using pumps and extraction equipment, prioritizing areas at the highest risk of further damage.

4

Structural drying

Air movers and dehumidifiers are set up to dry out affected materials, with moisture levels checked periodically over the following days.

5

Sanitization

Affected surfaces are cleaned and treated to address contamination risk and reduce the chance of mold developing afterward.

6

Final inspection

A final check confirms materials are back within a safe moisture range, and documentation is provided for insurance purposes.

FAQ

Common questions in Hockessin

Is sewage cleanup covered by homeowner's insurance?

Coverage depends on the cause and your specific policy; a sudden sewer backup is sometimes covered, though many policies require a separate sewer backup endorsement.

What happens if drying is stopped too early?

Stopping too early can leave residual moisture that leads to mold growth, warping, or odors later on, which is why moisture readings are checked before ending the process.

Do I need to leave my home during mold remediation?

For larger mold remediation jobs, containment barriers are often set up, and depending on the affected area's location, you may be advised to stay elsewhere temporarily.

What should I do if I smell mold but can't see it?

A musty odor without visible mold often means it's growing somewhere hidden, like behind walls or under flooring, and a professional assessment can help locate it.

How is the area sanitized after sewage cleanup?

Crews typically use antimicrobial and disinfectant treatments on all affected surfaces after extraction and removal of contaminated materials.

How long does the drying process usually take?

Structural drying typically takes 3-5 days depending on the extent of the water damage and the materials affected, monitored with moisture meters throughout.

What equipment is used for water extraction?

Technicians typically use industrial wet vacuums for extraction, followed by air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the affected area over several days.
