In this photo, air movement equipment operates in a Middle Island home’s dining room. This process is especially important for moisture mitigation in exposed wall cavities and brickwork. Dehumidifiers collect moisture from air movers for removal in a treated sewer.

Imagine the water a washing machine can hold on the floor of an East Setauket laundry room and that is the water damage that SERVPRO team members arrived to find. To dry the room rapidly multiple pieces of drying equipment were used as seen in the photo.

Freezing air and fluctuating temperatures make your property prone to a water damage resulting from frozen pipes.

When water is exposed to freezing temperatures, it begins to expand resulting in increased water pressure and a possible pipe burst. Water damages incurred from pipe bursts often result in a fairly significant amount of damage in both residential and commercial properties. 

Should you discover a frozen pipe, it is important to take immediate action to help prevent any damage from occurring. There are several ways that you can heat and thaw frozen pipes. First you should conduct a thorough check to ensure the pipe has not burst and is not leaking, you also want to ensure the water is turned off. Then, you want to simply heat up the pipe by using a space heater, heat lamp or hair dryer. Wrapping a frozen pipe in thermostatically controlled heat tape may also help.
