How to Handle Storm Flood Damage in Laconia
I have flood damage on my property after a storm. How can I deal with it and restore my home?
You can count on SERVPRO to handle the storm flood damage in your Laconia residence. To return homes to preloss condition after flood damage, we offer the following restoration services:
- Inspection
- Water removal
- Drying
- Disinfection
- Deodorization
Inspection
Our SERVPRO team can take an inventory of the damage from the storm and document everything correctly, including inspecting the roofing, window, siding, and other parts of the home. Our team can also use moisture meters to measure different materials' actual moisture levels or content. We can take note of everything that is physically ruined and note what we observe.
Water Removal and Cleanup
Removing water is an essential aspect of the flood damage repair process. SERVPRO can use portable extractors to remove the floodwater. There may be muck or mud outside your home after a flood. Our team can use vital, environmentally friendly hot water or cold water power washers to remove the dirt from all the affected areas. Suppose the force of high pressure is inadequate to break the dirt's bond on the surface. In that case, we can add a detergent or cleaning agent to the water to enhance the equipment's cleaning power.
Drying
We can use high-powered air movers and dehumidifiers to expedite the drying process. This equipment can work together to dry your home quickly.
Disinfection
We can use antimicrobial products to disinfect the damaged parts of your home to prevent contamination.
Deodorization
The lingering smells resulting from dampness can be off-putting. Our SERVPRO team can use various deodorization methods to handle odors. For instance, we can dispense solvent-based and water-based deodorizers to the affected areas using ultra-low volume (ULV) foggers. The foggers generate small particles that penetrate many areas where odor particles hide.
After a storm causes flooding in your home, contact SERVPRO of The Lakes Region to return the property to its preloss condition. Our 24-hour hotline is (603) 527-2518. We aim to make the flooding incident seem "Like it never even happened."
