When flooding damages your property, an emergency flood cleanup crew can guide you through the process, every step of the way. At Paul Davis Restoration of North Dallas, we know first-hand how flooding can affect a home and a family. Here, we provide insight into our flood cleanup process so that you can get an idea of what to expect.
Drying Out Your Property
When you call a flood damage restoration company, the professionals take the lead. They work with you to address your concerns and take note of any priorities. During emergency flood cleanup, the first thing to take care of is the excess water. A team of technicians uses heavy-duty equipment to remove stagnant moisture from the area. They’ll also use fans and dehumidifiers to thoroughly dry the inside of your home. This process allows the team to do the following:
- Easily assess the damage
- Clearly identify critical areas
- Block off potential danger zones
Whether it’s major flooding that destroyed part of your home or minor flooding that seeped into the furniture, the cleanup crew will work to remove affected items. This may include pulling up carpeting, removing furniture, and more. They’ll also get rid of any debris that may have been left on your property by heavily rising waters.
Sanitizing and Deodorizing Your Home
Excess water is an ideal environment for bacteria growth. As part of a thorough flood cleanup process, the company will make sure to use antibacterial treatments throughout the affected areas to ensure your home is clean and safe for you and your family. Since moisture also fosters the growth of mold and mildew, this process helps mitigate any potential issues that could cause health concerns.
Once the area is clean and dry, the team can begin remodeling your home. An expert team can repair the damage and restore your home to its original state. They may also be able to revitalize spaces that are overdue for a makeover. Making your priorities and vision a part of the estimate with your team can help ensure a positive outcome.
