Emergency Flood Water Removal
If you’ve walked into your property and found a flood, you are probably distraught right about now. We are available around the clock to help you through. We offer a help line via phone to offer you immediate assistance, and can come out to get the water out of your home right away. Once we’ve gotten the immediate danger resolved, we then get to work on flood cleanup and restoring your belongings.
We recognize that in the aftermath of flooding, the situation can seem hopeless to a home or business owner. We want to assure you that it is not, when you put the job in the experienced hands of our professional flood cleanup team. In fact, as our technicians begin their work, our customers are able to see fairly soon that it isn’t quite as bleak as they thought. It is still a serious blow, and yet the knowledge that things can be saved is heartening.
Here is how we tackle the aftermath of a serious water event:
We use pumps to remove thousands of gallons within hours to facilitate flood water removal. Then our high velocity water vacuum suctions water that is soaking furnishings and standing on floors. Our power circulating equipment gets drying air moving across surfaces, including under carpeting.
We then have special technology “look” inside walls to determine where it is wet, so that we can dry it. We use steam cleaning to restore your carpet and upholstery, and then lay down biocides and fungicides to prevent mold and bacteria growth. Mold remediation will be likely after 48 hours, to kill anything that may have started growing. Odor treatments will also begin using a molecular odor destruction technology to make sure your home is smell-free.
This is not the case when people try to do it on their own. Getting in the middle of the mess, with amateur equipment and no flood cleanup knowledge makes the project doomed to fail and people get even more discouraged.
Flood water removal Safety
When flooding is in a basement, we urge you to stay out. There is a real danger of electrocution, especially if the power box is down there. And there are other electrical sources, such as furnaces, water heaters and appliances. We are trained to handle all of the safety precautions that are needed during flood water removal. If the junction box is in a readily-available area that is not wet, and you know how to shut down power, it is usually safe to do so.
This brings up a point to consider. The inclination is to get into the house or business to begin immediately finding things to salvage. It certainly is essential for you to see the extent of damage in order to determine if you need us. Our advice is for one person to go in, perhaps wearing rubber boots for protection. Flood waters can be at various levels of contamination. You need to protect yourself, and ask others to postpone their desire for their own flood cleanup. All it takes is a splash of contaminated water in a mouth to cause serious gastrointestinal problems. If you were to cut a hand that is wet with the dirty water, a major infection could result.
