When your home is affected by flooding, time is of the essence. Contact SERVPRO for water removal and storm damage remediation efforts. Call us 24/7.

Your Home After A Flood

Flooding from natural sources can impose hardships on homeowners no matter where it happens. Durham residents might see problems when Falls Lake overflows, or from hurricane-related storms. Flooding can occur in an instant and then take months for property owners to repair and restore.

When weather plays a heavy hand and floods areas of Durham, flood damage affects more than the family home. Life seems to focus on restoring the damaged home instead of normal living activities. Work can also suffer tremendously while adults attempt to compensate for the time now spent on replacing children's belongings, reassuring them that everything can go back to how they remember, and a multitude of other activities that sap energy but suddenly become extremely important.

Our technicians understand how difficult everything seems to become after a disaster. We help families affected by flooding and other disasters every day. SERVPRO employees receive training that helps them earn certificates from the IICRC.

The studying and coursework behind these certificates include:

•   Microorganisms and how they live and function.
•   How materials inside a home become damaged in different situations and the best ways to counteract that damage via restoration and repair techniques or closely matched replacement materials.
•   The best methods for working in various situations so that we always remain out of the way while continuing the restoration processes required.

The process involved in making your home “Like it never even happened” after a flood can entail a broad range of activities. Each one is important and performing it helps your home come closer toward total restoration. Drying out, thorough cleaning, removal of earthy debris and garbage, elimination of viable microbes, and disposal of items destroyed by flood waters either through contamination or contact with the water can take time to accomplish. Because SERVPRO employees work as a team, we reduce the amount of time it takes from the time we arrive to when we complete the final details of the restoration work on your family's home.

Regardless of the severity of flood damage affecting your neighborhood, SERVPRO of North Durham has the tools, equipment, skills, and experience to restore your family's residence quickly and professionally. Contact us at (919) 467-0880 any hour of the day or night so we can begin assessing the damage and rectifying the situation.
