SERVPRO Can Assist by Delivering Water Removal Services and General Remediation of Damaged Properties
Storms are highly destructive since they combine different forces, including gale-force winds and heavy precipitation sustained over several hours. Since the problem affects many South Miami properties, simultaneously leaving inundated houses, ripped awnings, smashed windows, and even felled trees, you may not know what to do or whom to ask for help when your home is affected.
The flood damage left in South Miami properties can fall in different categories ranging from soiling to contamination to structural ruin. Each class of damage has its complexities ranging from tediousness to technical difficulties. SERVPRO professionals can help address or guide the homeowner on the best course of action based on the type of damage.
Restoration after flooding may also involve some unexpected processes like:
- Biohazard remediation
- Sewage cleanup
- Rodent clean up services
One often overlooked step is the prevention of additional damages at the loss site. The initial effects of flooding can worsen if nothing is done. Additional issues can stem from the proliferation of microbes and exposure of materials to high moisture levels. Although it might seem like there are no options, professionals can find ways to help. For instance, SERVPRO technicians can help pack out contents to protect them from moisture exposure. We also spray EPA-registered disinfectants into the floodwater, inundating the house, limiting the contamination levels.
Leaking roofs from storms and the need for ceiling repairs from water damages are common outcomes after storm incidents. Such jobs require time and proper planning to guarantee the right outcomes. Our SERVPRO technicians can help install roof tarps to protect the structure until proper repairs can be done.
