What to Do When Your Malden Home Suffers Flood Damage

Imagine returning from work early in the evening to see your entire street flooded in Malden. Upon entering your basement, you see a foot of water on the floor, everything soaked and destroyed, including sentimental items. It is not what you wish to see after a long shift, and you are all alone. You do not have to deal with all that by yourself, though. Professional flood damage cleanup experts can help you through these challenging moments.

Ideally, having a professional company do a flood damage assessment in Malden properties soon after the flooding helps in knowing what items must be discarded and what you can save. Time is of the essence as within 24 hours, things start to deteriorate, including structural materials. Also, improper handling of flood damage leads to many destructive results.

Tackling flood damage

Flood damage restoration companies take the burden of working with your insurance company off your shoulders. Since the situation can be stressful, this service is generally well-received. After the floodwaters recede, SERVPRO teams offer speedy services by sweeping up the residue leaving your home clean.

Other quick measures

• Spraying disinfectants
• Drying wet materials
• Deodorization

SERVPRO technicians begin drying out your home and address structural damage such as a wall collapse or sinking ceilings. There may still be water left seeping from soaked furniture, which needs quick intervention. Therefore, for rapid drying, we immediately set up air movers and dehumidifiers, which work concurrently to remove moisture from the items in your home.
