Entire Homes Benefit From Water Damage Restoration

Dampness can make your residence feel less comfortable than it could be for you and your family. Excess water vapor in the air can make your Mount Kisco home seem colder in winter and hotter in summer. Our water damage restoration services eliminate this problem for our customers.

When we perform water damage restoration work in Mount Kisco, the most noticeable side effect is the dramatic drop in humidity. Water vapor decreases quickly because of the combined effect of different drying machines and the absence of leaking, dripping water. Our method of working in teams strengthens the efforts of each one, increasing the value our customers receive.

Some of the other pluses that come with our restoration services include the following:

• Elimination of musty odors
• Lowered utility costs
• Protection from microbial infestations

Restoring your home's interior involves the removal of damaged materials (drywall sections, deteriorating carpeting, and its pad, and dry-rotted underlay). Before we removed these materials, the ongoing disintegration meant the air nearby remained full of odor-causing particles. Once gone, our odor control technician's (OCT) efforts become much more effective because the continual stream of odoriferous molecules has stopped.

The drop in your next water bill is another surprise. The following month should reveal the actual reduction in the monthly costs of the leaking water line. The savings might not seem astronomical alone. However, when humidity levels decrease to normal, HVAC systems no longer need to work overtime. The savings from operating your heating and cooling systems under normal conditions and a reduced water bill add up considerably.

Decreasing the humidity overall helps ward off microbial colonization, but, along with other restoration efforts, the drying out of waterlogged areas keeps microbial infestations from occurring. Eliminating these problems (microbes, dampness, and deteriorated materials) can also reduce unwanted odors.
