Save Money Short and Long Term with Flood Damage Mitigations in New Milford Through SERVPRO

One of the first things you should do after encountering flood damage in your home is to place a call to a certified damage mitigation company like SERVPRO. We keep our phone lines open 24/7 so that we can respond to local crises as soon as they happen. Contacting us as soon as possible after an incident can end up saving you hundreds or thousands of dollars on restoration and repair fees and could prevent several long-term situations from arising as a result of the flooding.

How Fast Responses Help in the Short Term

Within hours of receiving your first call about flood damages to your New Milford home, we arrive on-scene to immediately begin extracting any remaining standing water and setting up drying processes. By removing water sooner rather than later, we can prevent the immediate breakdown of some materials and minimize the effects of color bleeding, warping, and other time-sensitive types of water damage. Depending on how the water entered your home and the extent of the damage, we may also be able to rectify most problems before foul odors become a significant issue. These factors and other considerations can add up to a hefty sum of money saved on restorative treatments that may become essential with days or even hours of extra time before the arrival of SERVPRO technicians.

...And in the Long Term

Floods can sometimes lead to particularly severe and expensive consequences for your home, such as significant mold damage and degradation of the building foundation. The processes to reverse these effects can be expensive and complicated and are best avoided entirely through a competent damage mitigation job done quickly after the disaster. Also, the materials we save through restorative treatments can reduce the necessity of otherwise essential long-term home renovation projects in the future.

SERVPRO of Teaneck / Englewood can help you to overcome the effects of flood damage in your home while saving you money in the process. Call us at (201) 266-0482 for our emergency services.
