How to Handle Flood Damage in Your Monroe Residence After River Flooding Occurs
Flooding is a destructive and common problem that homeowners face. It can occur when a river overflows its banks. This commonly happens when rains increase the flow. Failing to clean up your home promptly can lead to damage to its structure and contents, electrical issues, and mold growth.
The drywall in your home can swell and disintegrate within hours of the flood, causing bacterial odor to spread all over. It is therefore crucial to hire professionals who can assist you to deal with the flood damage in your Monroe residence. The professionals at SERVPRO can respond fast to your call and come to our property ready to clean up and dry it. We can arrive at your residence at any time of the day or night, thoroughly assess the destruction and then begin the remediation process to protect your home from additional damage.
We can remove the water using sophisticated equipment like submersible pumps. We use these pumps if the level of water standing in a structure is two or more inches deep. If your home does not have a lot of standing water, we can use wet/dry vacuums to extract it.
Flood waters contain microorganisms and therefore, it is necessary to remove most porous building materials and replace them. Our SERVPRO technicians remove and discard carpets, mattresses, and upholstered furniture contaminated by flood water. We can restore metal, solid wood, and plastic furniture.
We also use different dehumidifiers like low grain refrigerant, desiccant, and refrigerant dehumidifiers to dry all the affected areas. These devices remove any excess moisture in the air, which can contribute to mold growth. We also use air movers of different sizes to move large volumes of air quickly throughout the flooded areas. Air movers promote fast drying of the affected surfaces while offering excellent air circulation throughout the home.
We also use air scrubbers to remove unpleasant odors and other particles from the air. Air scrubbers are ideal for eliminating unpleasant scents linked to water damage. We also have the expertise and equipment to clean and restore possessions like linens, books, clothing, and documents.
