Restoring Your Englewood Home After Flood Damage is Straightforward with Expert Help
Surface water flooding is a threat in urban areas. It typically happens when the drainage system is unable to cope with the large volume of water that hits the ground after several hours or days of heavy rainfall. This kind of flooding is common because of interrelating factors like the increased frequency of heavy rain, an increase in hard surfaces, and inadequate maintenance of drains.
Flood damage in your Englewood home can be deep-rooted and devastating. It may cause structural damage or undermine the structural integrity or foundation of the house. Therefore, it is vital to investigate and repair any flood damage in full. Extracting the water and eliminating all the moisture helps prevent secondary damage to a home.
An experienced restoration company like SERVPRO can help you return your property to its pre-incident condition quickly and effectively. Our well-trained technicians can evaluate your home to determine the extent of the destruction and come up with a plan of action to dry the affected areas thoroughly. When you contact us to restore your property, you can expect the following:

Our technicians can use heavy-duty water extraction equipment to remove standing flood damage from your house. We spend enough time extracting water since it expedites the drying process. To dry a home faster, our ASDs can also use portable heaters to raise the temperature of rooms to between 70 and 80 degrees since hot air holds more moisture. Mold proliferates in damp, dark places like behind drywall and sub-floors. Our Applied Structural Drying Technicians (ASDs) can dry out your house before this occurs or remediate the issue if mold growth has begun.
After removing the water, we use high-powered air moving and dehumidification equipment to dry the furnishings, walls, and flooring, among other areas. We have structural cavity drying equipment that enables us to force air into or out of wall cavities and other hard-to-access areas to ensure efficient drying. Structural drying equipment has higher pressure capabilities. It can overcome the restriction of air delivery systems with a small diameter and tight air spaces where moisture can be trapped. We can fix attachments to this equipment to filter, direct, or manipulate air.
To determine if a home is dry, our SERVPRO crew can use infrared cameras to inspect and monitor the moisture in building materials. After drying your house, we can use odor removal equipment like hydroxyl machines to eliminate any smells that the floodwater caused.
