Flood Remediation from Harrisonburg SERVPRO Mitigates Odors and Debris

Water is not the only cause of unpleasant odors after flood damage. Harrisonburg homeowners can often find sewage, pests, chemical runoff, and other unpleasant discoveries on their property that can also affect the safety of potential DIY solutions. Professional remediation, however, can keep homeowners safe while still eliminating odors and debris.

Harrisonburg SERVPRO flood damage cleanup professionals provide around-the-clock mitigation services that return homes to pre-flood conditions. Whether the disaster is large or small, SERVPRO tools and EPA-registered biocides can eliminate odor-causing particles. 

SERVPRO odor control and debris removal for flooding

To address concerns created by flood odors and debris like soot and sewage, SERVPRO professionals can:

• Use commercial-grade personal protective equipment (PPE) to eliminate waste and residue brought in by flood damage safely. These tools include gloves, N95 filter respirators, and hooded coveralls
• Manually clean and dispose of solid waste without spreading contaminants throughout the property. SERVPRO mitigates this risk with designated clean rooms for decontamination of equipment and PPE
• Spray OSHA-approved biocides to mitigate bacteria and microbes on contact, which can lessen odors
• Deploy ultra-low volume (ULV) foggers to eliminate odor-causing bacteria on surfaces and in the air with lingering "wet" fog
• Position ventilation box fans to circulate clean air through the property at least 40 times before and after ULV fogging to minimize the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These fans can circulate air at a rate of 3,200 cubic feet per minute

While drying moisture and extracting excess water after a flood is crucial to mitigation, debris removal and odor control from certified professionals go the extra lengths necessary to restore a home to a safe and sanitary state.
