Why Is A Rapid Response Vital When Handling Storm Damage Restoration?

8/14/2023 (Permalink)

With intense storms and severe weather comes water, and a lot of it. Flooding and water damage from damaged roofing, windows, and siding will often occur. You may experience flooding in your basement or garage due to improper drainage or flooding waterways near your property. 

Whatever your situation, you must receive prompt, professional attention when your North Nashville property experiences storm damage! Learn more about the water damage timeline here.

What Are Some Of The Dangers Of Neglecting Rapid Storm Damage Restoration?

Here are a few of the dangers you might encounter if you don’t take the necessary steps to manage the storm damage on your property:

• As mentioned above, water damage may be a part of your experience. Allowing your location to remain damp gives mold a place to land, bringing a host of serious issues! Call SERVPRO of North Nashville for professional mold remediation. 
• Your building may be compromised, possibly leaving you in a dangerous position. You’ll need a restoration professional to assess your premises to see if any damages must be restored immediately. Our storm damage technicians are here to help.
• Some water from flooding or burst pipes can be contaminated. A professional water damage restoration company like SERVPRO of North Nashville can be onsite at your location immediately to assess water quality.

What Is The SERVPRO Storm Damage Restoration Process?

We provide our clients with the best in storm damage restoration, and we are committed to getting to you quickly! Our process is as follows:

Step 1 - Emergency Contact

The restoration process begins when you call us. Our representative will guide you through the crisis and may ask several questions to help us better understand the equipment and resources.

Step 2 - Inspection and Water Damage Assessment

We determine the scope of your water damage at this stage. We inspect and test to determine the extent of damage and how far the moisture has traveled to ensure proper and complete restoration.

Step 3 - Water Removal / Water Extraction

The water removal process begins almost immediately and removes most of the water. We use powerful pumps and vacuum units to quickly remove hundreds or thousands of gallons from your property, which helps prevent secondary water damage and mold growth.

Step 4 - Drying and Dehumidification

We use specialized equipment to remove the remaining water that is harder to access. Our Professionals will use room measurements, temperature, and relative humidity to determine the optimal number of air movers and dehumidifiers needed to dry your home or business.

Step 5 - Cleaning and Sanitizing

We clean all of the restorable items and structures damaged by the water. We are adept at cleaning contents using several techniques. Our professionals are trained to provide sanitizing treatments, remove odors, and deodorize your property.

Step 6 - Restoration

Restoration is restoring your home or business to its pre-water damage condition. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall and installing new carpet, or may entail major repairs, such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in a home or business.
