How Our 6 Step Restoration Process Works
Comprehensive Solutions for Water Removal & Dry Out
Water removal and dry out in Florida is a crucial step in the restoration process and should be handled by specialists as quickly as possible. The faster you call our local team, the faster we can react, deploy our team to start the process and minimize additional damages. The longer the water sits, the more damage it will cause to your flooring, walls, cabinets, furniture and structure of your home. We use commercial grade specialized equipment to provide the fastest results possible. Our techniques and procedures have been very successful with the tools and equipment we use to eliminate moisture in the air. Depending on the amount of water in your home or business, if it is cold or hot, will determine the equipment we will use. After the water is removed, we dry out the home using air dryers, air blowers and check for moisture using infrared cameras or moisture meters.
The following are the steps involved to remove the water:
- A specialist will go through and inspect all of the damaged areas, assessing the amount of damage present.
- We will get to work removing the water from your home. This is the foremost of our concerns as standing water promotes mold growth and the spread of bacteria and mildew.
- Thermal imaging equipment and tools are used to detect hidden pockets of additional water.
- Dehumidifiers and fans are brought in to dry any damp air left behind. Damp air encourages mold and mildew to grow, as well as bacteria.
- We then use special equipment like moisture meters to check the humidity in the air.
We Use Specialized Equipment
If your appliances malfunction or you experience a burst pipe, you need a contractor that has all the necessary renovation equipment and knowledge to restore your home. Removing hundreds of gallons of water from your property and dealing with the damage, requires the use of commercial grade equipment. We take advantage of these specialized tools to eliminate the water & dry out the property.
The visible water on ground is only part of the problem that needs to be addressed when you suffer from water or flood damage. We have the necessary tools to discover concealed pockets of water behind your walls and baseboards.

If not detected and resolved immediately, standing water can cause secondary damage causing structural losses and additional hazards such as:
- Decay of wood materials
- Dilapidation of laminated structural materials
- Rusting and embrittlement of metal or steel materials

- Hard water stains along structural surfaces
- Permanent damage to flooring, walls and cabinets

These structural losses and hazards are not only harmful to the building’s integrity, but also to the health and well-being of the people occupying it. Weakened structural materials can cause life-threatening accidents and mold growth can cause respiratory illnesses and other health problems.

Contact Our Local Team for Flood Damage
When it comes to floods from a natural disaster like a storm, you want to remember safety first and to make sure your family is safe. Heavy rains that enter your home can have devastating effects .
Floods are usually gray or black water, which contains harmful microorganisms and contaminants. Generally the process is the same for storm flood mitigation as water, but the protective gear used for sewage would be the same. It will also require proper sanitation and cleaning to ensure the bacteria has been eliminated.
Mold Removal & Remediation
We have a reliable comprehensive process for getting rid of mold. A thorough inspection of the property is the first thing that we do. We’ll evaluate how extensive your damage is as a result of any mold formations. We next eliminate the mold and sanitize the area systematically. We finally apply powerful sealants to efficiently seal off any areas where mold might grow.
Our process seeks not only to eliminate the mold found in your property; we also see to it that we prevent its growth. You must have expert help. Hiring any so-called technician can result in your property having the same problem once again. Our service pros have the proper skills to mitigate water and eliminate mold infestations.
Mold Inspection and Process
The following are the steps the Action 1 Restoration team follows to ensure that the right course of action is completed.
- We ask questions about our customers observations of visible molds, leaks in the plumbing, and other related issues.
- We conduct a visual inspection of the area, specifically searching for molds or water accumulation.
- Air and mold samples are collected. These samples are taken from both inside and outside the affected areas.
- We take the samples to the laboratory and have them analyzed and tested.
- Once we discover the type of mold we are dealing with, we would start the containment and mold remediation process.
- We would then treat the entire area to help in prevention and re-growth of mold and start the repair/restoration process.
- **Please note, some of our location partners do not do the inspection and or testing and needs to be sent to a partner company.**

There are several reasons sewage backups can happen in your Florida home and are commonly caused by clogged pipes, tree roots, heavy rains and the drain system can’t keep up with the excess water. Not only can a sewage problem be difficult to deal with, but it is one of the most hazardous incidents a homeowner or business can face.
Immediate action is required once there is a sewer backup to minimize damage and potential spreading of the black water. Sewage is made up of organic and inorganic matter that can produce awful odors and is a potential sign of the starting of a sewer backup in your home.
