Planning renovations this year? Knowing what you're getting into is important and can save time, frustration and money! Cutting corners might save you money in the short term, but can result in numerous headaches and/or high costs in damage in the long term. Do your research before beginning any projects or hiring a professional.

Did you know: In as little as 48 hours after water damage occurs, mold colonies can begin to develop. This is why it's important to act fast!
What happens during water damage restoration? Using professional pumps and vacuums, water is removed through pressure washing and the use of specialized extraction tools. The area is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected followed by implementing drying procedures. Remaining water must then be changed from liquid to vapour by promoting evaporation via special air moving equipment. Commercial dehumidifiers are then used to reduce damage and possible health hazards, as quickly as possible.
Don’t take the risk, call the Professionals,call First General Restoration to clean, sanitize and deodorize (902-849-9834). # First General
