Learn How To Address Flood Damage

Flood damage is usually weather related, like a tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico, and when it happens you need professional help to restore and repair your property. There is need to remove the standing water from your property and use specialized techniques to fasten the drying process. We are covering some of the restoration services that Redington Beach residents should expect when such incidents occur.

When we are responding to flood damage in Redington Beach, our SERVPRO technicians begin by assessing the degree of damage. That is the time we check out for stains, cracks, leaks and any related damages in your basement, roofs, windows, and walls. We also assess your belongings such as carpets, appliances, and furniture. This stage helps us to determine salvageable and unsalvageable contents and come up with the most appropriate methods to use when restoring your property.

Next, our SERVPRO technicians extract water from your property by using truck-mounted vacuum systems and powerful pumps. Remember, if you do not address standing water, then you should expect further damage and bacterial growth. To measure the level of moisture saturation, we use hygrometers and moisture detectors. In a situation where there is hidden water behind the ceilings and walls, we use infrared cameras to do the detection.

After physically removing the water, it is necessary to perform drying and dehumidification processes since some level of wetness still exists in the structure. Without the two methods, then you are likely to see walls, furniture and floors swelling and warping. We put in place air movers and dehumidifiers and regularly monitor the drying process using moisture meters. At this stage, the primary goal of our SERVPRO technicians is to return your property to its preloss condition.

To eliminate unpleasant odors from your property, we perform odor removal and deodorization. We do this with the help of industrial grade air scrubbers as well as thermal foggers. Where necessary, we dispose of refuse from the site while adhering to both the state and local regulations.
