Storms & Flood Damage Create Safety Hazards – Let SERVPRO Help
Catastrophic flood damage in Rockaway causes immediate hardship and additional damage to contents and structures if water is not removed and everything dried immediately. All of your contents are fully immersed in contaminated floodwaters; mold colonies can rapidly grow, leading to further damage. Mold can cause health effects for many consumers, and numerous safety issues can materialize.
SERVPRO has the equipment and staff to respond to emergency flood damage in Rockaway and surrounding areas. We can mobilize truck-mounted pumps to begin removing water and contaminated materials from flooded basements in less than four hours from your call. It is important it is to remove water, damaged contents and begin drying to avoid mold growth, which often begins in as little as 24 to 48 hours.
Residents should be cautious about entering their homes after flooding. There may be several hazards that need to be considered.
- Slips and falls on surfaces contaminated with mud,
- Chemicals and biological material, including viruses and bacteria
- Electrical systems that are compromised,
- Sharp edges from broken glass and other personal items that were damaged during the storm.
Our SERVPRO technicians are on the lookout for all of these hazards as they begin removing water and debris as well as damaged materials.
