Raleigh’s Storm Water Damage Remediated by Experts
A few years ago, in 2018, SERVPRO’s remediation teams helped Raleigh residents overcome problems caused by Hurricane Florence. Our skilled technicians quickly came in and extracted gallons of floodwaters from area homes, effectively cleaned up hazardous wastes, sanitized interior surfaces, and repaired impacted roofing and other damage associated with this powerful storm.
SERVPRO’s actions during Hurricane Florence exemplify how it routinely deals with water damage in Raleigh resulting from the region’s infamous coastal storms. Our emergency water damage services crews rush to residences to repair ceiling leaks and other issues, clear-up basement flooding, and perform biohazard remediation. Once we arrive at your house, company cleanup and restoration experts:
- Spray powerful, commercial-grade disinfectants on all interior surfaces impacted by floodwaters to limit the proliferation and spread of harmful microbes
- Use state-of-the-art, truck-mounted and portable extractors to remove stormwater from basements and lower floors
- Clean up remaining silt and debris with rakes and shovels, then properly dispose of hazardous waste in EPA-approved ways
- Carefully remove and throw away flood-fouled carpeting and padding, then suction up any remaining water with wet vacs
- Evaluate structural materials and contents for salvageability, restoring things that can be cleaned and repaired effectively and replacing those that cannot be
- Decontaminate exposed surfaces with pressure washing and EPA-registered antimicrobials, dry interiors using cutting-edge air movers and dehumidifiers, and thoroughly deodorize rooms with advanced fogging devices
SERVPRO’s attention to detail in resolving these matters often makes it unlikely that you will experience any further issues related to the current storm event.
