Damage restoration is a highly technical field, and the techniques and equipment used to restore your property after a disaster are constantly improving. At your local FLEET company, we’re committed to delivering the best possible results on every job. We use the latest and most advanced restoration equipment to ensure your home or business is returned to its original condition and all health and safety hazards are eliminated.
Whether you’re dealing with water damage, fire damage, storm damage or mold growth, you can count on your local FLEET company to use the most advanced restoration equipment for your specific situation. Below is an overview of some of the advanced restoration equipment we use to ensure the damage to your home or business is addressed properly.
Moisture Detection Technology
After water damage, it’s common for moisture to build up in hard-to-detect areas such as in drywall or within the insulation behind your walls. If this hidden moisture isn’t detected, your property may not dry properly, and you’re at risk of developing significant structural damage or mold growth over time.
To ensure all structural drying is completed correctly, we use the most advanced moisture detection equipment in the industry, including:
- Thermal Imaging Cameras – These cameras detect variations in temperature throughout the property, making it easier to uncover wet areas which may be harboring hidden moisture. The levels of precision achieved with these cameras allow for a more targeted and efficient drying strategy, ensuring all damp spots are addressed during structural drying.
- Moisture Meters – Moisture meters are used in conjunction with thermal imaging cameras to determine both the severity and location of all water damage to your property. They’re also used after structural drying to confirm this process was completed correctly.
- Thermo-Hygrometers – Thermo-hygrometers provide extremely accurate temperature and humidity readings and enhance our ability to achieve a more controlled drying environment. Our team can make adjustments to your drying strategy in real time based on the data these devices provide.
Drying Technology
Structural drying is the most critical component in the water damage restoration process. Our team uses cutting-edge equipment to ensure this process is completed properly. This includes:
- LRG Dehumidifiers – Low-grain refrigerant (LGR) dehumidifiers are more powerful than conventional dehumidifiers and provide enhanced drying capabilities. These devices work on a broader temperature range, and their energy efficiency allows them to restore your home or business faster than is possible with a conventional humidifier.
- Air Movers – Air movers are used to dry flooring and carpet that has sustained water damage. They blow air directly over the damaged floor, facilitating a faster evaporation of water molecules. This process allows for a more rapid removal of water from carpets and wood floors.
Air Purification Technology
It’s common to experience indoor air quality issues after water damage or fire damage. Water damage can spur mold growth in a matter of days, making the air dangerous for people to breathe. If you suffer category 3 water damage (contaminated water), there will also be harmful bacteria in affected areas that can negatively impact your indoor air quality. The smoke damage that occurs during a fire can leave harmful pollutants in the air as well.
During the restoration process, the following specialized technology is used to restore safe air quality in your home or business:
- Air Scrubbers – Air scrubbers clean the air in your home or business by sucking particles, gases, chemicals and other pollutants through a filter. They play an important role in making the air safe to breathe after water damage, mold growth or fire damage.
- Antimicrobials – State-of-the-art antimicrobial technology, including UV lights and specialized detergents, will kill bacteria and mold spores after water damage. This helps neutralize foul odors and restore healthier air.
Assessment and Planning Technology
The initial damage assessment is a critical part of the restoration process. Our team uses the following technology to accurately assess the extent of the damage and create an effective plan to restore your property to its pre-damaged state:
- Floor Plan Apps – Floor plan apps make it easier for our team to document the extent of water damage and develop a comprehensive restoration plan. Our team scans a room using a mobile device, and the app creates a detailed digital floor plan that can be augmented with pictures, notes and other information associated with the water damage. These floor plans can then be shared with team members to ensure everyone is aligned regarding the proposed restoration plan. The floor plans can also be shared with insurance companies to facilitate a smoother claims process.
- 360 Camera – 360 cameras provide comprehensive documentation of damaged areas, improving the ability of our team to assess the extent of damage and create an effective restoration plan.
