Monitoring for excess moisture in your Sandwich home

Water damage often means that there needs to be some extraction of excess moisture during the cleanup. Before extraction, it is essential to thoroughly test the impacted area to understand the damage's extent and see if the damaged areas have restoration potential.

Water Removal in your Sandwich home consists of measuring the presence and then the amount of moisture before moving on to removal. SERVPRO encourages pretesting areas of the house to determine complete restoration's feasibility before completing the entire job.

Pretesting has four objectives:

1. What portion of the home and contents can dry and be cleaned to preloss condition?
2. What amount of the house and contents can NOT dry and be cleaned to preloss condition?
3. What part of the home is unaffected?
4. What part of the property is unknown for repair status?
