Haddon Heights Flood Damage Restoration Completed by SERVPRO--No Worries!
Helping Restore Homes after Fall Weather Brings Flooding and Storms to Haddon Heights
With Fall weather coming upon us in the Haddon Heights area, storms and other adverse weather are sure to begin affecting our daily routines. Trips to the park for picnics and playtime outside dwindle, screens come off windows, so storm windows easily fit, and car tires get switched for those with deeper treads. The weather can affect entire neighborhoods or single homes.
When your home in Haddon Heights sustains damage from floods or stormy weather, it can make living in your home a hazardous feat. At times when your house contains water, you want someone just to make the problem go away.
Our skilled specialists do this type of mitigation and restoration regularly. Earning the Water Damage Restoration (WRT) from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) prepares our staff and crew leaders for the complex, and frequently dirty, work involved after a flood or other storm-related event.
When backed-up water from the street winds up in your living room, a short call to SERVPRO starts the process of cleaning things up to make your house livable again. We work as rapidly as we can without cutting out essential aspects of the work. We know your family does not want to be moved out of your home.
Microbes come from various sources during a flood. Many of these can survive in slightly damp environments, meaning any amount of moisture, including small volumes, can permit their survival. It is their introduction into your living space that can lead to unwanted health effects bothering your family members. Some of these microbes can infest your home without a living host, as well.
We use antimicrobial agents to minimize such threats to the health of our workers before we begin. Once we finish manually clearing an area of its debris, as well as other materials that became damaged by the water, we rinse it. Then, we reapply antimicrobial agents. We often use a spray mechanism, so these applications go on evenly, thoroughly coating all surfaces. The second application makes things safe for your family upon your return home.
However, we need to ensure that your entire house becomes dry again, including any damp areas on upper levels. When water vapor condenses, it can create localized damage there. We implement air movers dehumidifiers to prevent this from causing you more problems. We monitor and constantly check during the service with moisture meters and infrared camera imagery to locate any remaining pockets of moisture.
Because your floors take most of the damage during a flood, we rely on our building services crew to handle flooring issues. They perform services such as this under General Contractor License # HIC #13VH01276600 and add highly skilled and experienced people to our restoration team.
