Advanced Technology and Techniques

At SERVPRO of Minneapolis South Central, we are continuously investing in new technologies to allow us to do a better job for our customers.  When your property suffers water, smoke, soot or fire damage, you need a company who can efficiently not only assess the damage but also get it cleaned up during the mitigation process.

Our equipment allows us to perform mitigation and repairs to the highest standard as outlined by the IICRC in their various industry standard drying and clean up guides.

Assessing Damage

Our field technicians are equipped with iPads to document losses, advanced moisture meters and infrared cameras in order to determine where the damage is and 3D scanning cameras from Matterport that allow us to take high resolution 3D scans of loss sites.

Mitigation

No matter what the damage to your home or business we have the appropriate equipment to ensure a quick and efficient clean up process.  This includes the newest air movers and dehumidifiers available and Wood Floor Drying Mat systems.

Moisture Detection and Measurement Equipment

Scientific drying principles rely upon specialized equipment to detect, measure, and monitor a property’s moisture levels. Recent advances, like infrared cameras, can help us detect water through a wall, ceiling, or floor.

  • An infrared camera may be used to identify water location for thorough water removal.
  • Sensitive moisture detectors, hygrometers, and other meters measure the extent of moisture saturation

Water Extraction Equipment

Powerful extraction equipment speeds the drying process by removing the bulk of the water from your home or business.

  • Submersible and gas-powered pumps for continuous pumping of high-level water. 
  • Truck-mounted and portable extraction units perform efficient water removal.

Drying Equipment

Industrial strength air movers and dehumidifiers are needed to remove the remaining moisture from ceiling, walls, and floors of your home or business. Proper drying helps to prevent swelling and warping of floors, walls, and furniture.

  • High-speed air movers causes moisture to evaporate at a faster pace
  • Industrial grade dehumidifiers pull the water vapor from the air.

Odor Removal and Deodorization

Water and fire damage often causes powerful odors. The machines we use remove airborne contaminants and control the air quality during the restoration and cleanup process.

  • Air scrubbers
  • Thermal foggers and deodorization agents

Sanitizing Agents, Germicides, and Anti-Microbial Treatments

The use of OSHA-approved cleaning agents may be needed to clean and remove odors and/or contaminants on your property.

  • Deodorization products control odors from excessive moisture.
  • Disinfection products stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, mildew, and other harmful microorganisms.
