Quick Efforts Lesson Water Damage
Severe weather is an all-too-common occurrence in this area, and the threat of flood and storm damage is always looming. Water intrusion into your property can cause significant structural damage and ruin personal belongings. We offer fast and effective solutions to mitigate water damage. We prioritize removing the water and preventing the situation from escalating further.
Post-Storm Board-Up and Repairs
To effectively combat flood damage in Harrisonburg homes and businesses, the first step we take is to provide direct boarding up and sealing services. It is critical to prevent any further water damage to the structure. Therefore, we proactively use thick plywood to cover broken windows and missing doors and tarp over roof holes. These measures are taken promptly to ensure no additional water enters the structure, which could complicate the mitigation process.
Extracting Standing Water
The next step will be to remove any surface water that may have accumulated. We at SERVPRO® understand that flooding can often bring along debris. We use specialized extraction solutions to remove standing water while accounting effectively for any solids present. We have a range of powerful machines at our disposal to get this done quickly and efficiently.
