Summer Storms Bring Flood Damage To Your Home

While we need rain to keep our lawn and gardens growing nicely, heavy precipitation during the summer can also cause serious problems. Homeowners in Walton County often find that bad weather is more than a nuisance. The expense of cleaning up after weather-related issues can stay manageable when a professional company like SERVPRO assists homeowners by completing the work.

One of the disasters that Walton County homes sustain might involve flood damage. Our technicians know how to handle such destruction within a home and make everything “Like it never even happened.” Our crew members hold several different IICRC certificates, which means they arrive at your home wholly prepared.

Many stages of restoration require that our team members work together quickly and efficiently to produce the best possible results for our customers. We address each of the issues involved in achieving this goal. Removing any standing water, disposing of damaged materials, cleaning the foreign matter out, and drying the property's interior all must occur before your family can safely return.

Pumping out dirty floodwaters allows us to gather debris from throughout your home's floors safely. Even though we remove carpets and padding, silt can still find its way underneath and into the spaces between the floorboards. Fine sand and other sediments can also contain organic matter that easily creates musty and highly offensive odor as long as they remain present in your home.

We check your home's humidity levels from the very beginning of our work, enabling us to monitor our progress in restoring your home more precisely. We have extraction devices that can remove such sediment. We use other tools to extract the moisture hiding in these same spaces. Dehumidifiers and desiccant machines steadily decrease the amount of water vapor until we reach normal levels. At this point, we can begin bringing in new drywall sections, carpeting, and padding.
