Water Mitigation Process Suwanee

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we stop the source of water and assess the damage. Our IICRC certified technicians use moisture meters and thermal imaging to see exactly where water has traveled, even behind walls and under floors.

Next comes water extraction using industrial pumps and vacuums. We remove hundreds or thousands of gallons quickly to prevent secondary damage. Then we place commercial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers throughout your home.

The drying process takes 3-5 days typically, and we monitor moisture levels daily. We don’t remove equipment until scientific readings confirm your home is completely dry. This prevents mold growth and ensures your insurance claim documentation is thorough and accurate.

What's the difference between water mitigation and water restoration?

Water mitigation is the immediate response that stops further damage from occurring. This includes removing standing water, setting up drying equipment, and monitoring moisture levels until everything is completely dry. Water restoration comes after mitigation is complete. That’s when we repair or replace damaged materials like drywall, flooring, and trim work to return your home to its pre-damage condition. You need mitigation first to prevent mold growth and additional structural damage. Trying to restore before proper drying is complete often leads to bigger problems down the road, including mold issues that can cost tens of thousands to remediate.
We provide 24/7 emergency response and aim to be on-site within hours of your call. Water damage doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. The first 24-48 hours are critical for preventing mold growth and minimizing damage. Every hour that passes allows water to penetrate deeper into materials, making the restoration process more extensive and expensive. When you call our emergency line, you’ll speak with someone immediately who can dispatch our crew and provide guidance on what to do while you wait. We’ll walk you through safety precautions and immediate steps to help minimize damage until we arrive.

This direct billing approach means you don’t have to pay out of pocket and wait for reimbursement. We handle the paperwork, you focus on getting your life back to normal. Most homeowners find this removes a significant source of stress during an already difficult time.
Mold prevention starts with rapid response and proper drying techniques. We use industrial-grade dehumidifiers, air movers, and antimicrobial treatments to create an environment where mold can’t grow. Our technicians monitor humidity levels, temperature, and moisture content in materials daily. We don’t consider the job complete until moisture readings reach acceptable levels according to industry standards. This typically takes 3-5 days depending on the extent of water damage. We also remove any materials that can’t be properly dried, such as saturated insulation or severely damaged drywall. It’s better to replace these items than risk mold growth inside wall cavities where you can’t see it developing.
We use commercial-grade water extraction equipment, including truck-mounted pumps that can remove thousands of gallons quickly. For drying, we deploy industrial dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers strategically placed throughout affected areas. Our moisture detection equipment includes thermal imaging cameras that can see water behind walls and under floors, plus moisture meters that provide precise readings in different materials. This technology helps us identify all affected areas, not just the obvious damage you can see. We also use air scrubbers with HEPA filtration to improve air quality during the drying process. All of our equipment is regularly maintained and calibrated to ensure optimal performance when your home needs it most.
The mitigation process typically takes 3-5 days, but this depends on several factors including the amount of water, types of materials affected, and environmental conditions like temperature and humidity. We monitor progress daily using scientific measurements, not guesswork. Moisture levels must reach acceptable standards before we consider the mitigation complete. Rushing this process to save time often leads to mold problems that cost far more to fix later. During the drying period, you can usually remain in unaffected areas of your home. We’ll set up containment barriers when necessary and work around your schedule as much as possible. Our goal is to minimize disruption while ensuring the job is done correctly the first time.
