Storm Flood Damage Repair in Your East Brunswick Home Calls for SERVPRO’s Expertise
Water is a vital element of life, but it has an ugly underside. The damage from floods can affect sewer systems, vehicles, people, pets and contaminate water lines. It can also lead to severe losses.
When such circumstances hit property owners, SERVPRO saves them the stress of repairing the affected structures and contents. Our technicians are trained to tackle storm flood damage in East Brunswick properties. Armed with sophisticated equipment, our restoration process follows the general steps outlined below:
- Pre-inspection
- Floodwater extraction
- Removing affected items
- Drying
- Disinfection and deodorization
- Full restoration
Pre-inspection
After arriving at your home, our technicians can carefully pre-inspect every aspect of the damaged areas. We can also look out for dangerous situations like falling ceilings, electrical hazards, and deteriorating subfloors to prevent injuries during the restoration process.
Floodwater Extraction
Floodwater causes more damage to your building the longer it stands in it. Our SERVPRO team can remove the water and slurry using self-priming trash pumps.
Removing Debris
We can remove all the debris like leaves, ruined items, and building materials. We can place them in a dry area to sort, dry, and repair them. We can dispose of those that have been badly destroyed.
Drying
Our SERVPRO team can use axial air movers to pump dry air into the affected area. These air movers improve evaporation by introducing airflow at the surface level. They replace the saturated, cool boundary layer with drier, warmer air from dehumidifiers. We can then use refrigerant dehumidifiers to remove the water vapor in the air inside the building.
Disinfection and Deodorization
Our SERVPRO team can use disinfectants to limit or stop microbial growth. We can apply water-based odor counteractants to remove the bad smell that the floodwater left behind.
Full Restoration
We perform activities like repainting affected areas, replacing drywall, refinishing hardwood, and restoring furniture, among other restoration activities.
