Why does flood damage in Gilroy require specialized procedures?
Storms in the Gilroy area can introduce contaminated water into homes and businesses. Contamination may come from fuel, oils, various chemicals, bio-hazards, and fecal matter carried by the floodwaters and deposited inside the structure.
SEERVPRO provides contaminated water and flood damage emergency services in Gilroy. We protect non-contaminated areas and use standard PPE as needed for each situation. Clients should remain distant from affected areas for their protection.
Every situation requires assessment and planning. Our SERVPRO team follows the following generalized procedures:
- Spray EPA registered disinfectant on affected areas
- Contain the damage

- Review which items can be decontaminated and restored
