The process for water damage restoration is a complicated one and requires experts to stay up-to-date in their field. Something that might not be immediately obvious is that technicians often have a range of threats to deal with before the job is complete – structural instability, exposure to chemicals, wildlife, electrical dangers and harmful bacteria. Fortunately, Kleen-Tech’s water damage restoration experts are highly trained and educated in their trade, significantly reducing the chance of harm to themselves and others as well as occupants / owners.

Preparing For Water Damage Restoration

Before any work can be done, a restoration technician will need to don proper safety equipment in order to commence investigating the moisture levels not only in the flooded area but also in the surrounding structural materials, for example drywall and insulation. Safety equipment is very important as one of the biggest hazards technicians encounter are liquids brought in by the source of the flooding – oil, mould spores and bacteria are just a fraction of the potential dangers lurking in the stagnant water.

Water Damage Restoration Equipment

To prevent further structural damage, thorough drying is extremely important. That is why Kleen-Tech only uses the most high-tech and state of the art equipment. We even have our own trucks to generate electricity, which means we’re available 24/7 all year even when the power is out. To dry out your home or office, we use dehumidifiers and air movers to remove moisture from affected areas. You should note however that if you intend to undertake water removal yourself, it is best to hire industrial grade water extraction equipment.

Avoid DIY Water Damage Restoration

Attempting to repair the damage yourself with a shop-vac and a mop simply won’t cut it and you’ll soon find yourself at odds with mould spores and underlying structural damage. Insufficient equipment will not half mould and bacterial growth the same way. Additionally, to ensure that the drying process is being carried out properly, moisture meters and other diagnostic tools are used by our Melbourne water damage restoration technicians.
