A Comprehensive Strategy to Restoring Springdale Homes after Flood Damage
Heavy rainfall during certain periods of year can result in large amounts of water entering the home. With standing water, the longer it is left, the more it is absorbed into the structure of your home which can cause expensive or even permanent damages. Natural materials like fabrics or woods can often be the most at risk from exposure to excess moisture so reaching out for professional assistance is essential.
Over the years, we have honed and developed a comprehensive strategy to help residents with flood damage in Springdale. Our first move on arriving at a job site is to secure the structure and ensure your safety. This could involve shutting off potentially water-logged electrics, testing that floors or ceilings are structurally sound or lose debris.
The number one action is to remove standing water as quickly as possible. SERVPRO can pump standing water out of your home and into an open sewer point by using submersible gas-powered systems. We can also check your crawlspaces as well as your subfloor to see if there is any excess moisture residing there and pump it out too.
After the flood removal of standing water, it is time to assess the state of your contents and structural components. If you have been away from home for an extended period, it may be that your property is suffering from prolonged exposure to moisture. Since water naturally migrates from wet to dry, a long exposure can result in items taking on excess amounts.
SERVPRO can remediate waterlogged contents by extracting as much of it as possible before conducting thorough dehumidification. Water moves from wet to dry, so placing drying equipment in the affected area overnight can be a useful measure for drawing water out of floorboards, soft furnishings, and hard floors. We can test if the process is successful by using moisture meters to understand whether appropriate dryness is achieved.
