Psychometrics - The Science of Post Flood Drying

2/2/2022 (Permalink)

Flooding can happen any time of year … rain OR shine.  If you are faced with flooding in your home or business, there are many things that will be going through your mind, from what may have been damaged, to how to get the water out and the area dry. A few of those racing thoughts you may want to hone in on in particular, like getting the area clean and dry. And while some may say “it’s not rocket science”, and it is true that drying a wet basement is not in fact rocket science, it is still however science! This science even has a name, and it is called Psychometrics. 

When Psychometrics comes into play, the air and its properties are studied and examined. This is an important aspect to know and understand. Although an area may seem dry and clear of moisture, there may still be a threat. When certified SERVPRO technicians are called in to help with a clean-up, they can get to the root of all that is going on and help to create the right atmosphere for proper drying. If you are faced with flooding and water damage, avoid hidden moisture and further damage by not following all of the proper steps (science) - give SERVPRO a call! We are faster to any disaster and would love to help you get back to normal "Like it never even happened."
