Water Damage and Fire Damage in Birdsboro 

The town of Birdsboro, PA, was once known for its large foundries and machine shops. While none are in operation today, the city of over five thousand people has managed to preserve the legacy of William Bird, the town's founder. 

The town played a crucial role in the Revolutionary War, with Hopewell Furnace being the largest domestic producer of iron during the time. The city has changed over the years and is now famous for its many parks, including Mainbird Park.

Thermal Imaging Cameras During Water Restoration 

One of the toughest challenges that professionals face during the restoration of water damage is locating the hidden water in various building materials. Moisture detection devices help SERVPRO technicians find this water to develop an efficient drying strategy. 

Some of the moisture detection devices that we use include-

• Thermal imaging cameras
• Moisture meters
• Moisture sensors
• Thermo-hygrometers

Thermal imaging cameras can detect temperature differences on the surface of a material. As moisture changes the ability of wet surfaces to retain heat, these cameras can represent wet areas in a different color than corresponding dry areas.  

The Role of Heat in Restoring Fire & Smoke Damage

SERVPRO technicians use heat to increase the rate of the chemical reaction between a cleaning agent and the smoke and soot residue. Heat also reduces the surface tension of the water-based cleaning agents helping them to penetrate the surfaces and dissolve the soils better. 

SERVPRO technicians ensure that the temperature is not too high to cause any damage to the surface being cleaned. We always pretest before applying any cleaning agent after a fire damage incident.
