My house flooded onto my wood floors what can I do to try and salvage them?
SteamMaster has had success using the Injectidry wood floor drying system. This system works by creating a vacuum to help extract the water through the wood floor and can often prevent the floor from heaving and even reverse cupping. This system will return the wood floor to a normal moisture content in about one weeks time.

What is the role of an Industrial Hygenist (IH), Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH), or a Forensic Engineer?
An IH, CIH or Forensic Engineer trained in indoor air quality sampling and investigating can inspect the home or business, establish a pre-remediation baseline, and draft a 3rd party independent remediation protocol that a remediation contractor can follow to properly remediate the affected areas. After remediation, the IAQ professional can inspect the job site, perform clearance sampling and verify the remediation contractor has properly remediated the work areas.

Inspection for Mold
Q: Are you certified in microbial remediation?
A: Yes, we pride ourselves on making sure each technician gets their AMRT certification as soon as possible.
After any water damage there is always potential for microbial activity. The industry standard says after 24-48 hours there is a high potential for microbial activity. We use our many structural drying techniques to achieve an industry standard dry time.
As long as there is moisture and food source for mold spores, it will grow and thrive. After any water damage, there is always potential for microbial activity. The industry standard says after 24-48 hours there is a high potential for microbial activity. We use our many structural drying techniques to achieve an industry standard dry time. We do a visual mold inspection and since this is done thoroughly to identify all affected areas and the inspection may require us to probe into inconvenience places we do typically charge a $150 inspection fee which is applied to the cost of remediation when SteamMaster is hired to perform the mold remediation work.
Crawl Space Inspection
One recommendation we commonly make after a water emergency is crawl space encapsulation. Check out Colorado Basement Systems to find out more information.
Crawl spaces are not the most inspected area of any home and with prolonged neglect one may not know what is happening in there until some form of odor is sensed or detected and also when the crawl space is inspected by a home inspector. Our sister company Colorado Crawl Space and SteamMaster will inspect your dirt crawl space at no-charge to verify if you have a moisture intrusion problem which can cause musty odor or mold. Colorado Basement Systems offer a 20-mil vapor barrier encapsulation system called CleanSpace.®
