SERVPRO Can Help Restore Floors and Surfaces After Water Leaks into an Oyster Bay Home

When a pipe bursts in and Oyster Bay home, gallons of water can rapidly seep through your floors and into your walls. As you struggle to shut down the water source and soak up as much of it as you can, the structure of your home is weakening. The sooner you call a water restoration technician, the quicker you’ll make this a thing of the past.

Water mitigation in Oyster Bay homes can be seamless when you call our SERVPRO crew for assistance. Since water continues to travel even after the leak is under control, our team uses state-of-the-art measuring tools such as infrared moisture meters and hygrometers to detect where it settles. With this information at hand, we focus our extraction efforts to remove excess humidity from your home.

Can water restoration technicians remove water from vinyl flooring?

Flooring often suffers the most as water pools on it. Hardwood planks may buckle or cup, while vinyl may delaminate due to humidity on the binding material. Our goal is to prevent full replacement of your flooring, and we use targeted techniques such as the following to avoid it-

• Injectidry to circulate warm air in your subfloor
• Drying mats to suction water out of wood planks
• Dehumidifiers to evaporate water in the air

Regardless of how challenging the job looks, SERVPRO of Oyster Bay can help. Call us at (516) 464-3300 and let us leave your floors “Like it never even happened.”
