Edgemoor Cleanup and Restoration

Water Damage and Fire Damage Cleanup in Edgemoor

Edgemoor is among the census-designated places (CDPs) found in the northern part of New Castle County in Delaware, with a 2020 estimated population standing at 6,635 individuals. Initially, the community was developed as a village, in 1871, by the Edgemoor Iron Company. Some of the historical works by the company include the Rockville Bridge going over the Susquehanna River, the Deck of Brooklyn Bridge, and the Kentucky Bridge found on the Cincinnati Southern Railroad.

The area has a diverse population consisting of Whites, African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, Pacific Islanders, and Latinos. Its educational institutions are under the larger Brandywine School District, with schools like Mount Pleasant Elementary School and Pierre S DuPont Middle School. The locals can avoid getting stressed by water and fire damage since SERVPRO established a local station to offer fast and effective restoration and cleanup services.

Deodorization Equipment

SERVPRO IICRC-Certified technicians use specific equipment to spread deodorizers to the affected surfaces to counter bad smells left behind after fire damage and water damage. Some of them include the following:

• Thermal foggers are used to vaporize petroleum or solvent-based deodorizers to form fog or smoke made of tiny particles.
• Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) Misters are used in “wet” fogging to atomize the liquid deodorizing agents to form a fine mist.
• Ventilation equipment. Different kinds of air movers generate an airflow of great velocity from 1,000 to 3,000 CFM (cubic feet of air per minute). We use such air movement for general ventilation to eliminate vapors, odors, and fumes from a building. 

Specialized Drying

Water damage and fire damage cause damage to contents that cannot be dried through conventional means, such as documents and electronics, demanding specialized drying techniques. For documents, SERVPRO uses such methods as:

• Air drying, assisted by the use of air movers.
• Dehumidification for documents and books is moderately damp.
• Freezer drying, which we use when it’s just a few books that need drying.
• Vacuum freeze-drying extracts moisture through methods involving temperature and vacuum.

In case of emergencies, contact SERVPRO for a quick response and efficient services. While we work on your house, you can visit such restaurants as Mojo Loco to taste the local cuisine.
