Floodwater can cause thousands of dollars in damage if not attended by professionals on time. If ignored for an extended period, you may lose some of your valuable items, and the structural integrity of your home can be affected. At SERVPRO, we have a team of skilled technicians with decades of experience who can get your Camillus property back to its pre-damage state in a brief period.

What needs to be done after a flood?
After flood damage in your Camillus property, do not wait until your structure’s stability is affected. SERVPRO technicians are always available to respond to our customer’s emergency call and begin the restoration process immediately. We act fast to prevent costly home repairs. Our flood damage restoration team can assess the destruction and figure out the best techniques to use to restore your property.

Why is professional help necessary?
Restoring a property after flood damage occurs is not an easy task. Our technicians have the education, experience, and the equipment required to perform efficient water extraction, drying, and restoration of a home after flood damage.

Floodwater may be contaminated and hazardous to your health. Do not risk your health and that of your family trying to remove the water. Professionals take measures to stay safe during the restoration process. We can wear full-body suits such as the Tyvek suit, eye protection, and gloves. Our team can also use an electrical circuit tester to check whether current is flowing through circuits.

What if mold growth has occurred?
When floodwater stands in a property for more than 24 hours, the damage goes beyond water damage. Your property may require thorough mold cleanup. We use advanced and approved products to ensure effective mold cleanup. If mold growth is highly concentrated in a specific area, we may have to contain the area. The containment purpose is to:

-Protect the building’s occupants from getting exposed to contaminants.
-Stop contaminants from spreading into uncontaminated areas.
-Manage airflow from clean to contaminated areas.

For moderate contamination, we can use local or mini containment. Our technicians can construct a small enclosure by wrapping the affected area with 6-mil polythene around a PVC pipe frame. We ensure the enclosure is big enough for one technician to clean the area. We can use sporicidin, which is a phenolic product formulated with anionic detergents. The product is effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
