Fast Extraction For Floodwaters In Your Columbia Home
Natural disasters like flooding present several unique risks to your Columbia home and those that live inside it. Preventing these disasters can often be impossible, especially when conditions get met for creeks and streams around your home to rise beyond their banks and affect entire communities at once. The only choice that you have is to work as quickly as you can to get the right personnel to your property to begin mitigation work and the necessary steps to minimize the length and cost of time it takes to restore the damage occurring.
While you might have numerous concerns when floodwaters penetrate your Columbia home, the most pressing of these is removing the pooling water from the exposed areas of your property as promptly as possible. The longer that floodwater rests against materials and contents of your home, the greater the risk of contamination, bacterial growth, mold growth, and other biohazardous effects to occur. Our SERVPRO professionals are available 24/7 to respond quickly amid an emergency with extraction strategies that work.
Depending on the seriousness of the damage, our technicians might use one of several different types of extraction equipment to remove the excess water from your property. For severe situations, we offer truck-mounted pumps along with our SERVPRO Green Fleet of response vehicles to quickly remove this threat at a rate of 300 psi. Additionally, tools like our extraction wands, portable sump pumps, and weighted extractors can help to pull moisture away from vital structural components.
Removing the excess water from exposed areas of your property is important to allow the drying efforts to follow to happen quickly. Materials like drywall and carpeting must get removed from flood-damaged properties, but effective drying of structural elements like framing, studs, and beams can help to ensure that reconstruction takes less time and is less expensive overall.
While there are many concerns that a homeowner has when floodwaters begin to breach their property, the first reaction that you should have is to reach out to our SERVPRO of Maury / Giles Counties rapid response team. With our experience and industry-leading equipment, we can make flood damage “Like it never even happened.” Give our crew a call 24/7 at (931) 388-4248.
