What Next After Flood Damage Affects Your Belleville Home

Flooding might not be an everyday event, but when it happens, it can throw your life into turmoil. Despite the confusion that you might face, you need to respond fast. Several actions can help save your property and restore your home to its preloss state. Help from a professional team such as SERVPRO can reduce confusion and produce results faster.

One of the effects of flood damage in your Belleville home is ruining things that you value. There is a wide range of things that you value, including contents such as furniture and appliances. Your health is also invaluable, so there is a need to take measures to protect yourself even as you deal with the flood damage. Our SERVPRO technicians can help play that protective role in different ways. Since we have PPE, Personal Protective Equipment, we can wade into your flooded house to remove valuables without exposing ourselves to contaminants or electrical hazards. Shielding you from taking risks yourself protects your health, and the move-out saves your valuable contents.

During flooding, a considerable percentage of the damages happen immediately the incident unfolds. The main issues to expect include soiling and structural damages. However, as time passes, secondary damages occur if action is not taken to counter the initial incident. You can minimize the chances of secondary damage by limiting the exposure that contents or building materials have with water. Various approaches can help you achieve this, including water extraction, content move-outs, and the creation of exclusion zones. Our SERVPRO teams cover all these aspects because we have sophisticated water extraction equipment, and we perform content move-outs where necessary. We also bring plastic sheets to the loss sites, which can help, cover items, or create exclusion zones.

Contamination from chemicals and biohazards is common during flooding incidents. Other cleaning exercises can help decontaminate affected materials. Our SERVPRO technicians use a cocktail of cleaning agents, including antimicrobial agents and disinfectants, among others to rid your property of contamination, "“Like it never even happened.”

Flooding is very disruptive. Call SERVPRO of Nutley / Bloomfield to help save your home. You can reach us at (973) 662-0062 any time.
