SERVPRO has the Right Equipment in Little Rock

After a storm, most people want to begin cleanup as soon as possible to resume their lives. However, SERVPRO cautions you to be careful about carrying out flood remediation by yourself. It is better to contact a team with the correct equipment.

Many people wonder if they can use their home vacuum for flooding removal in Little Rock. However, we recommend giving us a call instead. Home vacuums were not designed for tackling flood water and might be ineffective and best, and dangerous at worst.

SERVPRO has a range of tools for removing water from your home:

• Free-standing pumps for use at every level of your home.
• Truck-mounted pumps for when we need more lift, or there is no external electricity supply available.
• Carpet wands for carpet surfaces and hard to reach corners.
• Extraction tools to press water from carpets for more thorough drying.

Our focus on thorough extraction means we are more easily able to dry your home, leaving it “Like it never even happened.” Proper extraction also lessens the risk of fungal growth in damp materials.

If you need a professional flooding removal service, call SERVPRO of Little Rock at (501) 803-9700.
