Demolishing some sections of your property may be necessary when resolving water damage or fire damage. At first, you may think the process is counterproductive since your goal is to resolve problems rather than create new ones. SERVPRO performs controlled demolitions removing specific materials:

Typical Materials Removed after Fire or Water Incidents

• Charred materials
• Deeply soiled materials from wet soot
• Soggy drywall, insulation, and other porous materials 
• Warped or buckled structural materials

Controlled demolitions are necessary where fire damage or water damage is restricted to sections of the property, leaving the other parts intact. For example, wall panels may be stained by smoke residues and charring while the underlying materials are unharmed. Replacing the panels solves the problem. Our SERVPRO IICRC-Certified crews take sufficient precautions to ensure the removal process does not ruin adjacent materials or structural supports.

Necessary Steps for Controlled Demolition

• Finding studs and utilities 
• Stripping wall and ceiling panels
• Stripping the electrical

Damaging structural supports or slicing utilities such as air ducts at your Sawyer Flats or Aventon Crown Apartments unit would be dire. Our SERVPRO technicians use stud finders to identify critical structural supports while tearing down materials to avoid accidents.
