Are you Prepared for Flood Damage in North Redington Beach?

June in Florida means that every homeowner stocks up on water, batteries and other hurricane supplies in preparation for the season ahead. Stores and residents alike review their checklists to make sure everything is in place for storms and strong winds, but homeowners usually don't think beyond the storm. When torrential downpours threaten the area, flood damage may be a part of your life, even if a hurricane does not make landfall near you. Knowing the best professional service to restore your home can save you time and money when the time comes.  

If you worry about flood damage to your home in North Redington Beach make sure to speak to SERVPRO as soon as hurricane season begins. Our certified technicians can help you devise a plan to prepare for flooding. Understanding the different concerns associated with floodwaters allows you to put safeguards in place to protect your family. As prevalent as a do-it-yourself approach may be, it is best to leave this restoration to the professionals.  

When a disaster is widespread within a community, damage can escalate quickly. Quick escalation is especially true for flooding because the longer your home is immersed in water, the weaker its structure becomes. Similarly, any bacteria brought in by floodwaters multiplies and spreads quickly throughout your home. When our SERVPRO crew arrives, we quickly identify materials that we can not salvage and dispose of them. Carpeting, upholstery and other porous surfaces are typically the first ones to go. From there, we focus on using industrial grade equipment to remove any standing water to prepare your home for disinfection. As simple as it sounds, each step involved requires the use of proper equipment such as truck-mounted pumps and extraction wands, as well as hygrometers, moisture sensors, and dehumidifiers. At SERVPRO, we know that flood restoration is not a one-size-fits-all process.
