SERVPRO’s Fast Water Removal Saves Raleigh Homes from Long-Term Damage

Water damage incidents due to ceiling leaks and burst pipes can cause long-lasting damage to your home. Hiring professionals for water removal from your Raleigh home can save it from such damage. SERVPRO’s team of water restoration experts use their years of experience and advanced equipment to restore your home to a condition “Like it never even happened.”

The first step taken by SERVPRO professionals during restoration is water removal from your Raleigh home. The longer the water stays on your property, the more severe the damage that it can cause. We use different types of pumps to get the water out of your property as quickly as possible. 

How does SERVPRO Techs Decide Which Pump to Use During Water Damage Remediation in Raleigh Homes?

SERVPRO techs consider several factors while choosing a pump to remove water from your Raleigh home. Some of the factors that we consider include-

• Type of fluid to be removed: In many cases, the standing water on the property might contain solids, including floating debris. SERVPRO techs use self-priming trash pumps in such situations that can pass solids over 3" as well as fluid laden with sand and mud.  
• How fast water needs to be removed: Larger pumps can remove more water at a quicker rate than smaller pumps. We use pumps with different capacities (measured in gallons of water removed per minute (GPM)), depending on the amount of water on your property. 
• Suction lift needed: Another factor is the vertical distance that the fluid must be carried from the pump to the discharge outlet. Removing water from underground structures such as basements needs high-pressure pumps to move water out of the building.
