To Handle Flood Damage in Your Syracuse Home, Call SERVPRO
A flood and the damages that come with it have left me helpless, at a point of utter disadvantage, and I need to counter the problem. Which restoration firm can I trust to restore my property before the floodwater ravages through everything it can get?
In such a desperate time, SERVPRO can step in to prevent further flood damage in your Syracuse home. We can work to restore your residence to its former glory by doing the following:
- Water extraction
- Removing affected materials.
- Cleaning and decontamination of affected surfaces and contents.
- Drying and dehumidification
- Reconstruction
Water Extraction
Our SERVPRO restoration crew can use gas or diesel-powered self-priming trash pumps to pump out the floodwater and the solid deposits brought in by floodwater.
Removing Affected Materials
Our technicians can remove all the materials that have come into contact with the water and sort them out to determine what is salvageable and what needs to be trashed. We can make a flood cut to remove parts of building materials like drywall that have been affected beyond what drying or repair can restore. We cut 12 to 18 inches above where the flooding damage has ceased. A flood cut enables restorers to remove drywall and address moisture problems behind the actual wall.
Cleaning and Decontamination
Our technicians can clean all the surfaces that have come into contact with floodwater and then apply disinfectants to kill microorganisms that have been washed in.
Drying and Dehumidification
SERVPRO technicians can use centrifugal air movers to move blasts of warm air into the building for drying while also ensuring it is properly ventilated. We can then use refrigerant dehumidifiers to remove water vapor. We use moisture meters to determine whether all the materials have returned to their normal moisture content.
Reconstruction
Our SERVPRO technicians can rebuild the parts of the building that were damaged beyond repair.
