SERVPRO Handles Flood Damage in Salem Quickly and Efficiently
As a homeowner, it is smart to always have a checklist of things to remember or keep in mind in any emergency. Whether or not you live in a flood zone, preparation is critical should any Salem storms roll through and leave you with interior flooding. SERVPRO wants all area residents to be prepared and know how to get in touch with us for fast, reliable water removal services. Not only are we available 24/7, but We’re Faster to Any Size Disaster.
Flooding impacts countless US homeowners each year, leading to billions in damage. Should your Salem home have flood damage after a storm, remember that time is of the essence. SERVPRO works quickly to address toxic floodwaters, reduce mold growth, and save your valuable items inside the home.
These are some things to remember if your property takes on floodwater:
- Wood and porous items like furnishings, rugs, and walls can take on water when submerged in floodwater.
- Even when cleaning is performed top to bottom, moving too quickly and leaving behind moisture increases the risks of pests, continued deterioration, and black mold growth.
- Most exterior flood water from a storm entering your home brings pesticides, vermin, feces, and other hazards, so it is best to let skilled restoration technicians tackle the cleanup.
SERVPRO comes prepared
If you have a leaking roof from storms or broken windows, our tarping and board-up services help protect your interior as the rest of your restoration takes place. Our crew also brings generators if they are needed should your power be out. We carefully assess all possible hazards and look at structural integrity to determine how to proceed. Once we have a plan, we begin water removal services, drying, and look for hidden moisture using:
- Borescopes
- Thermal imaging technology
- Moisture meters, sensors, and detectors
We ensure impacted areas of your home are dry and disinfected so there is no lingering trace of storm flood damage. Call SERVPRO of Salem/Peabody/Marblehead when you require assistance at (978) 744-4545.
