Schools Out Part III


As a water restoration company (SERVPRO of Katy Cypress and Champions 1960) we did what we always do. We did a walkthrough and found the point of origin. We used a moisture detector to detect all the moisture in the building and found where the building did not have water damage. Knowing that this was CAT 3 water we knew that we were going to have to remove porous contents and see what was restorable and what was not restorable.  There were plenty of porous materials that were restorable. Most notably were the books. There were hundreds if not thousands of books that received water damage from the flood. Luckily, we have the perfect tool for that. We use a freeze dryer that uses sublimation to dry paper. Carpet had to be torn out. Dry wall was soaked. We removed these porous materials and restored all the restorable materials.     


              After that the next step is to perform laser measurements of the building to determine how much drying equipment is needed. This is the easy part that we enjoy because while we take pride in our work in helping our community it is still hard work. Measuring a building is easier than ripping out carpet. Having said that this is possibly the most important part because it determines the exact amount of drying equipment that is necessary.


              The school was dried so quickly that the kids didn’t even have to miss school (I’m sure they appreciated out fast work). We dried the school quickly and safely. We restored the restorable materials and helped keep kids in class. Here at SERVPRO of Katy Cypress and Champions 1960 we take pride in our work and our chance to help the community. Whether it is a small carpet clean or it is a giant flood at a school we will do our best work on the job. We will restore the job and make it look like a flood didn’t even happen.
