Early Flood Damage Mitigation Solutions for Little Rock Homes

5/21/2023 (Permalink)

Flooding can cause a great deal of damage to your property. Call SERVPRO for certified technicians and equipment to handle the job.

Removing Flood Damage with Fast Action

Severe weather is familiar to many in the area, making the threat of flood and storm damage a continual concern. Intruding water into your property can destroy the structure and ruin contents and personal belongings in the path. However, we have fast mitigative solutions to help, focusing first on removing the water and preventing the situation from worsening.

Post-Storm Board-Up and Repairs

The first step we take to overcome flood damage in Little Rock homes and businesses is boarding up and sealing services. Preventing further water damage to the structure is critical, so we tarp over holes in the roof and use thick plywood to cover broken windows or missing doors. These early steps keep more water from entering the structure and complicating mitigation steps.

Extraction Services to Help

The next step that our technicians will take to help after a storm includes surface water removal efforts. With flooding, there is the possibility that the pooling water also has debris. Extraction solutions must account for these solids, overcome them, and effectively remove standing water concerns. Machines to do this include:

• Truck-mount extractors
• Trash pumps
• Wet vacuums

Cleaning Up After the Flooding

Removing surface water is only one of the preliminary steps in the ultimate cleaning and restoration necessary for your household. Decontamination is a considerable focus for our technicians, and any nonporous surfaces are treated with disinfection products and mold-inhibiting agents.

When your home or business suffers from severe weather threats passing through the area, you need prompt and focused mitigation and cleanup solutions. With 24/7 availability, our storm response team can help lessen loss and protect what matters most in your house. Call SERVPRO of Little Rock to help when disaster strikes at (501) 803-9700.
