Bristol Cleanup and Restoration

Restoring Bristol Water Damage & Fire Damage

Bristol is among the most populated cities in Hartford County, home to more than 60,000 people and countless businesses. Even large corporations like ESPN are headquartered here. With such a range in sizes for commercial properties and single-family residences, restoration teams helping after fire and water emergencies must be ready for disasters of several types.

The city is one of the faster-growing municipalities in the county, with direct access to another large metropolis nearby. The many communities making up the city provide ample working opportunities to offer a shorter commute for residents, including a large medical facility in Bristol Hospital, hundreds of offices and corporate properties, and cultural centers like the New England Carousel Museum, the American Clock & Watch Museum, and other tourist attractions.

How Does Surface Water Get Removed?

Overcoming the water damage you can see is often one of the first restoration steps for our responding technicians. Standing water is the priority, which gets removed with wet vacuums and tools like our trash pumps or submersible electric pumps. With pooling resolved, we can focus on the drying necessary to help your home. 

Carpets are a common installation in area homes, even as low-pile, glue-down options for industrial parks and commercial properties like the engineering facilities and offices of the Barnes Group. These installations require special attention when water emergencies occur to avoid tear-out and replacement. 

We have many options for carpet recovery:

• Floating
• Hot water extraction
• Bonnet cleaning
• Conditioning

Why Is Smoke and Fire Damage a Threat?

Smoke generated by the burning of many materials in your home during the disaster can ultimately impact the surfaces surrounding this combustion. Carbon particles circulate and land on building materials, causing a formidable fire damage residue to clean. When approached quickly, smoke damage like this can often be separated from the material underneath. The Bristol FD, established in 1853, has five Engine Companies and is located at 181 North Main Street.

Although not established until 1785, the first permanent settler built his home in 1728 in the Bristol area. Homeowners are rarely prepared for the impact of water damage on their properties. Call SERVPRO to help at (860) 582-3330.
