Van Nuys, CA – When water intrusion strikes residential or commercial properties in Southern California, property owners face a critical window for effective response. SERVPRO of Van Nuys South has established itself as a trusted resource for complete water damage restoration throughout Van Nuys South, Lake Balboa, and Valley Glen, combining cutting-edge technology with over two decades of local expertise.
The restoration company addresses the unique challenges faced by Valley properties, where aging plumbing infrastructure, AC condensation failures, and seasonal weather patterns create persistent water intrusion risks. Their mitigation-first approach focuses on containing damage quickly to minimize long-term complications and restoration costs.
Advanced technology drives superior results
Hidden moisture is a major cause of property damage, with standard visual inspections missing 60-70% of problems in wall cavities, under flooring, and in insulation.
The company uses sophisticated equipment, including penetrating moisture meters, infrared thermal imaging cameras, and thermo-hygrometers, to locate moisture. This technology creates detailed moisture maps for the drying process and insurance documentation.
They employ industrial-grade drying equipment, such as high-volume axial air movers, low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers, desiccant dehumidifiers for severe conditions, wall cavity drying systems, and HEPA air scrubbers.
Technicians position equipment according to psychrometric principles and IICRC S500 standards, ensuring optimal airflow (45-degree angles). Daily monitoring tracks moisture reduction, with drying verified after three consecutive days of stable readings before reconstruction.
Rapid response minimizes property damage
Time represents a critical factor in flood damage restoration outcomes. Within 24 hours of water exposure, drywall begins deteriorating, and metal surfaces start corroding. Mold growth can begin within 48 hours, creating additional complications for property owners.
The company maintains a 24/7 emergency response capability throughout the San Fernando Valley. Crews are dispatched immediately from the Van Nuys South location with truck-mounted extraction units, industrial air movers, and commercial dehumidifiers. The first-hour protocol includes safety assessment, water source identification and shut-off, category classification, standing water extraction, and initial equipment placement.
Integrated services streamline recovery
SERVPRO of Van Nuys South simplifies restoration by managing both mitigation and reconstruction under a single contract, eliminating the complexity of coordinating multiple contractors. Their construction professionals immediately begin rebuilding after drying, offering services like drywall, flooring, cabinets, painting (with texture matching), and trim restoration, coordinating licensed contractors for electrical, plumbing, and roofing as needed. This integrated approach minimizes operational downtime, benefiting commercial clients like warehouses, schools, retail, food service, healthcare, and hospitality venues. Dedicated project managers serve as single contacts, ensuring smooth coordination and communication.
Specialty services protect valuable assets
Beyond structural restoration, the company offers document and photograph recovery services. Their specialists employ freeze-drying and chemical treatments for water-damaged photographs, along with careful cleaning and stabilization for certificates, financial records, and vital papers, including deeds and titles.
Complete restoration also addresses lingering odors through thermal fogging, ozone treatment for unoccupied spaces, hydroxyl generator technology, and specialized treatments for biological contaminants. Air duct and HVAC cleaning removes particles that entered ventilation systems during water events, with post-treatment air quality testing verifying complete odor elimination.
