SERVPRO Performs Flood Restoration in Rocky Hill Home

It can be a frustrating situation to deal with floodwater in a Rocky Hill home. Imagine the level of frustration when storm damage happens to a house less than ten days after moving in. That is exactly the situation that the Rocky Hills homeowner in the video dealt with after floodwater entered the family home he had just purchased.  

SERVPRO Handles Widespread Flood Restoration Services in Rocky Hill Property

The homeowner conveyed in the video he was dismayed at the flood damage in the family home and contacted SERVPRO to perform the water damage restoration services. Upon arrival, SERVPRO technicians scoped the property and found that the entire home received the effects of the floodwater. 

When a Rocky Hill home has a water damage problem that results from floodwater, the property can have a host of issues that include the potential for secondary damages to the Rocky Hill property after the fact. As pointed out, the homeowner had just taken possession of this property, and the carpeting, flooring, and freshly painted walls were all-new in the house. 

Not only did this homeowner feel comfortable with the SERVPRO techs during the water damage restoration services in his home, but he also stated in the video he felt as though he made friends. This is not uncommon as SERVPRO technicians work hard to ensure that Rocky Hill property owners feel informed and heard during a flood restoration. 

Any restoration service that SERVPRO handles in a Rocky Hill property is never just a cleanup job for fire, water, or mold. The technicians are always very aware of the human factor. Someone likely suffered a loss and maybe feeling overwhelmed about the actions needed within the Rocky Hills property. That is why SERVPRO techs are communicative, patient, and compassionate on every job, no matter how large or small. 

Testing the water for contaminants is another crucial part of the flood restoration process. Groundwater can bring numerous harmful elements into a Rocky Hill home. For this reason, SERVPRO technicians take the time to carefully test the water and determine if any bacteria or pathogenic material is present. If so, the technicians can treat the water and lessen the threat. 

One of the most important actions SERVPRO techs perform in Rocky Hill homes needing flood restoration is the proactive treatments against mold damage. The IICRC-industry certified technicians clean using antimicrobial cleaning agents on surfaces. If the studs or subfloor gets exposed for drying, the techs can apply a sealant to inhibit any mold growth and keep the issue from being a problem for the Rocky Hill homeowner. 

As the homeowner in the video mentioned, SERVPRO technicians showed up at his Rocky Hill home rapidly and began the water removal services. The extraction equipment that SERVPRO technicians rely on is state-of-the-art and can range from portable pumps to ride-on units to truck-mounted extraction devices, as the amount of floodwater in the home dictates. The drying phase of the water cleanup gets monitored carefully, so the Rocky Hill home is dry and ready to get the furnishings moved back in to return to life as normal, "Like it never even happened."
