When Disaster Strikes Your Roxborough Property

Recently, storms seem to have become more forceful and damaging than in years past. The homes within Roxborough can sustain thousands of dollars in damage whenever trees or power line poles fall onto the roof. Area property owners can rely on SERVPRO to make things right again, quickly, smoothly, and professionally.
 
Flood damage in and around Roxborough happens after damage to the roof or when shingles are torn away in large numbers. Storm water can back up into basements and crawlspaces, and saturated yards in your neighborhood can rise quickly, sending water gushing into your home at the ground level. Damaged gutters can divert water flowing from the roof toward your home, instead than of away from it, creating a mini-flood on one side of your home while the other part remains dry.
 
Even if the area in your home affected by flood damage is only a few square yards in size and caused by an open window, SERVPRO recommends professional remediation for several reasons. In addition to cleaning up the current mess and making your home livable again for your family, we stop the damage before it can progress. By removing any silt and other debris, we also remove a significant portion of biological hazards contained in the debris. Using measurements taken by devices with the latest in technological advances, we can easily determine the degree of contamination on each surface before and after cleaning.
 
Saving carpeting and other floor coverings can often occur when remediation efforts start early. Our Carpet Cleaning Technician (CCT) can help determine the most suitable methods required to save your floors. Working closely with our Odor Control Technician (OCT), elimination of musty odors takes place that once hid inside your carpet after the flooding event. This odor is evidence of the various chemical and molecular reactions taking place within a flood damaged home. Although flooding from contaminated groundwater or sewage backup, these carpets and pads should be discarded.
 
Stripping your home of damaged materials and removing them safely, far away from your home, prepares it for restoration. New walls, complete with fresh coats of paint, provide the finishing touches that make it all “Like it never even happened.”
