SERVPRO is a Professional Flood Damage Repair Service for Seattle Residents
Floods in your area are usually warned of on local radio and government websites ahead of time, allowing you to prepare. However, the damage caused by floodwaters when they reach your property is often impossible to avoid. Most residents rely on restoration services to bring their home back to a preloss condition and perform emergency mitigative procedures that significantly reduce the losses to contents or structure. SERVPRO is a restoration service that has extensive experience dealing with flooding emergencies. We include technicians trained in general construction (OSHA) to help residents overcome material damage to their home's structure. We can also help with:
- Water mitigation
- Emergency flood repair
- Ceiling leaks
You can contact flood damage professionals in Seattle by using our twenty-four-hour helpline. Here you can provide notification of loss and arrange for a technician to visit your property within the next four hours. Early intervention and assessment can often be crucial in reducing flood damages, so we recommend that you call as soon as possible. Our technicians can bring with them the necessary equipment for restoration, which includes vital measuring equipment to track water migration through the home. Sometimes, failure to dry the home adequately can cause secondary harm such as mold growth.
- Borescopes are used to assess the amount of water residing inside wall cavities and are among the most accurate method of measuring structural damage.
- Moisture meters use a probe to ascertain the extent of moisture in materials such as carpets, furnishings, or hardwoods.
- Sensors can help track water in dense materials such as concrete which can expand or crack under persistent water exposure.
