Repairing Your Home After A Flood

When a flood happens inside your home, there are many different areas of the home that can be affected. Water damage from floods can destroy your home’s structure, carpet, flooring, and more. Electrical problems often occur after home flooding and there are many steps that need to be taken to start repairing the damage the flood has caused.

What needs to be done?

Immediately after a flood happens, you will require emergency water extraction. Flood damage restoration is going to start with water removal before the drying can begin. Home repairs from water damage can become extensive. Our professional flood damage restoration crew will assess the damage to your home and figure out the best course of action to fully repair and restore your home to pre-loss condition. If the carpet has suffered extensive water damage and cannot be successfully dried out, it will be removed and the flooring will be dried before new carpet can be put in. Carpet water damage could be minimal and you may not have to replace your carpet. The restoration process will include home repairs focused on the structure of the property and more.

In case of mold.

If flood waters stand for too long, the damage goes beyond water damage and your home is going to require mold cleanup and remediation. Luckily, Swift Restoration offers water and flood damage restoration, as well as mold remediation services so that we can get the job done quickly.

Is professional help necessary?

Flood damage repairs are not easy to fix. Swift Restoration has the experience, education, and equipment needed to quickly extract the water, dry the structure, and restore the damage quickly and efficiently. Without the proper equipment and knowledge, drying will not happen as quickly as needed to keep the damage from spreading and turning into a mold problem. Industrial sized equipment is required to dry a major water disaster.

When it comes to flood damage, the water that has flooded your property may not be clean water. If the water has come from an outside source, there is a good chance that the water is contaminated and can be hazardous to your health. You do not want to risk you or your family’s health by trying to remove and clean the water on your own. Swift Restoration knows how to handle different types of water damage and have the tools needed to clean and disinfect contaminated areas so that your property can be safe and livable.
