Damage Restoration in Minneapolis | SERVPRO of Downtown Minneapolis/Team Clemente

Sump pump failures and bathroom overflows are some of the most frequent water damage calls we get in our area. Our team responds immediately to extract standing water, assess the extent of damage to drywall and flooring, and begin structural drying with high-capacity air movers and dehumidifiers. We also inspect for hidden moisture using thermal imaging to prevent mold growth. Because many Minneapolis homes have basements and older plumbing, we pay special attention to thorough drying and sanitation. We'll coordinate with your insurance adjuster and document everything so you can focus on recovery.

Environmental abatement covers the removal of hazardous materials like mold, asbestos, lead paint, and other contaminants from your property. It's needed when water damage leads to visible mold growth, or if you suspect asbestos in older building materials during a renovation. Our licensed specialists contain the area, use HEPA filtration and negative air pressure, and safely dispose of materials according to EPA and Minnesota regulations. We also perform air duct cleaning as part of abatement to ensure your HVAC system isn't recirculating contaminants after remediation.

Yes, air duct cleaning is often recommended after water damage or mold remediation. Moisture can enter ductwork, leading to microbial growth that spreads through your home each time the HVAC runs. Even if visible ducts seem clean, dust and spores can settle inside. Our process uses a truck-mounted vacuum system and agitation tools to dislodge debris, followed by sanitizing to kill bacteria and mold spores. This improves indoor air quality and helps your system operate efficiently. It's a service we often combine with water damage restoration for a complete recovery.
