Wind Damage that Allows Flooding in Haddon Heights Homes
The Greater Haddon Heights area is no stranger to severe weather incidents, as we have already taken substantial damage through weather events like Super Storm Sandy in 2012 and Hurricane Irene in 2011. Both of these catastrophic storms affected hundreds of homes and commercial properties and had our teams working tirelessly to remediate and restore flooded buildings. Similarly, strong storm systems can come with gale-force winds that can sheer off siding and shingles from roofs, break windows, and cause other structural damages that allow flooding.
Much like our response to these compromising situations during the hurricane recovery, our team knows how to address flood damage and structural concerns in your Haddon Heights residence. With substantial loss situations like flooding can often become, it is critical to begin mitigation work and recovery efforts as promptly as possible. Our SERVPRO professionals have a full-service approach to restoration, starting with a thorough assessment of the damages to determine what the property needs.
Once vulnerabilities exist that can allow direct rainfall and runoff into your home, it does not take long for these effects to spread throughout the house. Our General Contractor License #: HIC #13VH01276600 permits us to do short-term mitigation like tarping a roof or boarding up windows. We have capable extraction equipment that can remove standing water from specific areas of the property, including our portable sump pumps, gas-powered extractors, and other units. Once pooling water and excess have gotten removed from the affected areas of your property, we can start to address the need for rapid drying.
Air movers and dehumidifiers are common staples for our SERVPRO team to set up for drying out your flood-damaged home. The more efficiently that these approaches occur, the more likely that demolition is not necessary. We can double check our efforts and constantly monitor progress with several of our advanced moisture content readers.
While there are dozens of machines and tools that might get used to return your home to preloss condition after wind damage causes a flood, our SERVPRO of Haddon Heights / Voorhees team can rise to the occasion. No matter when emergencies occur, We’re Faster To Any Size Disaster. Give us a call anytime at (856) 566-3388.
