Flood and Water Damage Remediation
Residents of Whitestown have experience within the past year observing and living through the torrential damage rains can inflict on homes. Overland flash flooding joined by the harm water incursion does after roofs, siding, and other exterior structures fall victim to high winds, toppled trees, and flying debris creates an overwhelming set of circumstances. Extreme weather presents substantial flooding challenges for members of our community. We are here to help.

Top of the Line Equipment Support Our Highly-Trained Technicians
The SERVPRO team completes training on every aspect of flood damage recovery from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC). Our technicians prepare for your job by mastering the flood damage industry’s best practices, ready for implementation at your home. We travel with fully-stocked service vehicles, packed with the high-efficiency pumps and water extractors necessary to evacuate inches to feet of unwanted and damaging flood water.
Active Containment and Disposal
Flood damage exposes your home and family to the pathogens, chemicals, and other debris found in contaminated water. Merely waiting for Category 3 water to drain away is never an option. The potential risk of coming into contact with blood and feces-borne viruses, bacteria, landscaping and road chemicals, dead animals, and other organic debris is worrisome. SERVPRO technicians use submersible pumps to remove water deeper than two inches, following up with powerful wanded extractors. According to local rules, the water is transferred to a holding container for disposal.
Disinfection and then Structural Drying
The surfaces in the affected area receive treatment with EPA-registered antimicrobials. This step is vital for the safety of the occupants of your home and the welfare of the SERVPRO technicians completing the phases of your flood damage remediation. We use powerful air movers during drying and do not want to contribute any airborne hazards to the mix.
