Overcoming Flood Damage

Running an institution like the University of Tennessee has a lot of moving parts. While you work to ensure that every aspect of the facilities here is in top form, with so many students and faculty to manage throughout the semesters, there are too many variables to avert disaster or emergencies entirely. With this knowledge, it is always wise to have a good working relationship with professional restoration services to help you any time that a situation might be out of your control.

Flood damages to your University of Tennessee campus, regardless of the facility that it damages, is a situation that is often out of the skillset for the maintenance department you have on staff. Major disasters like this require immediate attention and fast response to help mitigate the damage the building experiences and also to get restoration work started promptly as well.

Our SERVPRO team of professionals knows that We're Faster To Any Sized Disaster, and that is precisely why we have made that a slogan for our restoration work. In instances of flooding, natural or otherwise, many areas of your facility could get affected simultaneously. In many cases, you might not fully realize how extensive the damage is until it can get properly assessed.

While extraction is one of the critical elements of our SERVPRO restoration approach, drying holds an equally important role as well. Inadequate drying in wall cavities, underneath the flooring, and above ceiling areas can lead to worsening conditions like mold growth. This compounding damage is a public relations nightmare to contend with, as you have to relocate classes or entire dormitories into temporary housing until remediation completes.

If you're the person responsible for overseeing cleanup and restoration after significant emergencies like flooding, you should have a procedure in place for the right professionals to work to bring your facilities back to preloss conditions. You can always depend on our crew of restoration specialists at  SERVPRO of Rocky Hill / Sequoyah Hills / South Knoxville. We are available anytime by calling (865) 862-8907.
