Storms Can Turn to Flood Damage in Whitestown Homes
6/20/2022 (Permalink)
There Are Five Objectives for Flood Damage
Flooding is one of the more urgent and rapidly-worsening scenarios homes might face. Rapid restoration is vital because of the severity of storm systems and how quickly intruding water can make its way into a property. While a restoration project consists of dozens of steps, there are five primary focuses by experienced professionals of our SERVPRO team:
- Containing the impact
- Protecting personal belongings
- Repairing structural concerns
- Drying the structure
- Cleaning exposed surfaces
Mitigation Relies on Effective Containment
With any disaster or threatening situation, flood damage in Whitestown homes requires efficient mitigation solutions. Containing the movement of floodwater, especially when contamination is a concern, protects more of the house and its contents.
Stopping Damage to Contents
Flooding, water damage, mold, and other connected effects can threaten personal belongings and furniture within your house. Fortunately, our SERVPRO team has efficient strategies to help. Relocation is the most efficient means of protecting private property, though if damage has already resulted, on and off-site cleaning can help.
Build-Back Services to Help
We can perform build-back actions like controlled demolition with a general contractor license. We must also tarp or board up structural vulnerabilities while cleanup gets underway to prevent recurring issues.
Efficient Drying Solutions
Drying is always a key element of water restoration and post-flooding recovery. Air movers and dehumidifiers play the biggest role, but heaters, drying mats, positive pressure systems, and extractors also help.
Powerful Cleaners and Disinfectants
Contamination is a common concern for flooding. We have disinfectants, antimicrobial, and phenolic cleaning products to impact damaged surfaces directly.
