What Actions Mitigate Flood Damage in Atlantic City Residences?

10/15/2021 (Permalink)

Flood and storm damage restoration is a job for SERVPRO. We will be on-site within 4 hours of the initial call.

Flooding can be a devastating force, requiring multiple emergency services to protect Atlantic City properties. 

Mitigating flood damage is critical to area homes and businesses, as this ultimately reduces the money spent for restoration and the time these actions take. Specific emergency services can significantly impact the post-flooding condition and keep contents from becoming irreparably harmed.

Water Removal Services Expose Hazards

As with nearly all residential or commercial flood damage in Atlantic City, initial actions to reduce the severity and impact of pooling water require extraction. We use the initial job scoping to determine the best water removal tools to complete the tasks, namely, the ones capable of handling several inches of standing water with solids present.

Bulk Material Removal and Muck-Out Cleaning

Flooding can be destructive to the structural integrity of exposed areas of a house, leading to the collapse of materials like drywall and ceiling systems. Muck-out cleaning can remove these bulk materials and debris to make the final stages of restoration more efficient and thorough.

Content Relocation and Cleaning

Relocating contents and belongings from damaged areas can be a vital initial step in preventing greater harm and the spread of hazardous flooding effects. We have experienced technicians available at our nearby SERVPRO facility for focused deodorization, drying, surface cleaning, and storage when on-site cleaning is not feasible.

Flooding can be one of the most challenging disasters to overcome, especially when homes get struck with little warning. As leading restoration professionals, we can help customers navigate this stressful time to make smart decisions in restoring and protecting their property.
