Save Your Brentwood Home with the Help of Highly Trained Restoration Technicians
When floodwater enters your home, it can disrupt day-to-day life for days or more. Between the presence of contaminants in water and the effects of moisture on your belongings, the amount that needs cleaning can feel overwhelming. Our team at Lightspeed Restoration of West Nashville knows firsthand that flood cleanup entails understanding how water behaves in a structure, controlling humidity and microbial growth, and restoring safe, livable conditions as fast as possible. To that end, a licensed and reliable flood restoration company like ours is a secure bet for salvaging your belongings as well as restoring stability to your Brentwood home's structure.
Why You Can Count on Flood Restoration Professionals for Your Home Cleanup
Our technicians bring specialized equipment and years of field experience to every job. From high-capacity LGR dehumidifiers that aggressively reduce moisture to desiccant systems used for dense materials like hardwood or concrete, we use tools designed for effective structural drying. We can tailor equipment usage to the task at hand. Commercial-grade HEPA air scrubbers help filter airborne particles stirred up during cleanup. Advanced measurement tools like pinless meters and handheld thermal imaging cameras let us track moisture inside walls and under flooring so no hidden moisture pockets are left behind after the cleanup process.
Thorough Training and Certification Prepare Technicians for Tackling Disasters
Professional training makes a difference in flood recovery. All of our technicians are IICRC-certified (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification), with coursework that includes Water Restoration Technician (WRT) and Applied Structural Drying (ASD) training. These standards represent the restoration industry's benchmark for safe and effective cleanup after disasters. When NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) protocols are applied during HVAC cleaning and RIA (Restoration Industry Association) guidance is followed during demolition, you get a home that's clean and healthy to live in again. Our job is to remove water and debris and mitigate unseen risks that could affect your air quality or structural integrity long after the flood.
Flood Restoration Procedures for Affected Homes
When your home is affected by flooding, our team can respond with procedures like the following:
-
Extraction begins with submersible pumps and high-powered vacuums to quickly remove standing water. Truck-mounted pumps can pull out hundreds of gallons of standing water if flooding is severe and still present on the property. Wand tools, extraction pads, mops, squeegees, and other tools are used in multiple passes to reduce the presence of water as much as possible for faster drying.
-
Drying is done with commercial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers and is adjusted for surface and bound moisture stages.
-
Containment barriers and negative air machines help isolate clean zones and prevent cross-contamination during demolition or cleaning, which is crucial when handling microbial remediation and debris cleanup.
-
Sanitation includes the use of EPA-registered antimicrobials to treat walls, subfloors, and cavities impacted by black water.
-
Deodorization removes remaining odors with methods like manually applied solutions, time-release systems, HVAC cleaning, hydroxyl generators, and ULV fogging based on material and severity.
