Groundwater Flood Damage and Pack-out Procedures for Englewood Residents
Sustained rainfall can result in groundwater flooding of your property. Not only do high standing water levels exert significant pressure on your walls and flooring, but they can also carry high levels of contamination. As a homeowner, you may be able to deal with clean water emergencies yourself. However, floodwaters carry with them infectious waste, which can be harmful to your health.
You need professional assistance from trained technicians to overcome flood damage to your Englewood home. At SERVPRO, we run a unique out-of-hours emergency service for victims of groundwater, flash flooding, or storm-related events. We will ensure that your property and contents sustain as little harm as possible. We strive to reduce the expense of your claim by using our advanced equipment and professional expertise to repair the damages quickly.
In severe flooding scenarios, it may be necessary to store your contents at the separate facilities while work is undertaken. Separate storage can frequently mitigate against further losses while we work to restore the structure itself. When a pack-out service is necessary, SERVPRO technicians take an automated inventory of your possessions, their condition, and the rooms to which they belong. This ensures you are covered in the unlikely event of transit damages.
As part of the restoration service, SERVPRO can arrange for a professional remover on your behalf. By doing so, we make sure that you only have to deal with one company during what can be an emotionally stressful experience. Our inventories and services enlisting third-parties can all be added to your paperwork and passed on to your insurer as part of our stress-free claims process.
One advantage of a pack-out procedure is that it can significantly reduce the timeframe of your property restoration. Less furniture provides greater access to all areas of your home's structure. This access can be helpful should we need to perform structural or cavity drying as well as demolition of non-salvageable materials. Once your property has been returned to a sanitary condition, we can use our automated inventory to put furniture and possessions back where we found them.
Violent weather events are incredibly stressful and can take an emotional toll. Contact SERVPRO of Teaneck / Englewood at (201) 266-0482 for a quick resolution.
