To all homeowners, flood damage is a source of stress and loss of property. If left to stand, the floodwater can damage other areas, compromising your property's structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

- Assessment and inspection
- Water extraction
- Drying and dehumidification
- Cleaning and sanitization
- Full restoration
Assessment and Inspection
Our SERVPRO team can inspect your building to determine its safety and then performs a detailed assessment to determine the level of damage that the building has sustained.
Water extraction
We can use electric submersible pumps to remove the water standing on the floor of your home to curtail further damage. These pumps eradicate the suction lift limitations and offer quiet, continuous operation. They have various capacities. Small portable pumps can move from 100 to 18,000 gallons per hour through a ¾" to 4" hose.
Drying and dehumidification
To dry the building, our SERVPRO team can use structural cavity drying equipment to direct airflow into wall cavities to replace moist, cool air with dry, warmer air. This lowers the vapor pressure and increases the temperature of the surfaces, increasing the evaporation rate. We can also use refrigerant dehumidifiers to extract the excess water vapor from the air.
Cleaning and sanitization
To prevent mold growth and the multiplication of microorganisms that the floodwater might have brought in, our team can use its set of industrial cleaners and disinfectants to clean all the affected structures and contents. We can then apply antimicrobial agents to kill all microorganisms.
Full Restoration
SERVPRO is competent in providing full restoration services by replacing or repairing ruined building materials. We can also help you repaint and reconstruct parts of the building that were taken down.
