Why You Need to Call A Water Damage Restoration Professional After A Flood

8/21/2019 (Permalink)

On the East End of Long Island it doesn’t take much for our homes or businesses to experience water damage from seasonal storms, coastal flooding, high tides and strong winds. It happens quickly, often and can have far reaching effects that may not always be apparent at first glance. While we might like to think we can save money from cleaning it up ourselves, that choice often leads to more expensive repairs down the line.

Here’s why you need to call in the professionals to clean up after your water damage: 

Prompt restoration services

When dealing with a flooded home or business, timing is everything. Your main concern should be to avoid secondary water damage. This is why you need to bring in a professional restoration company. We will conduct mitigation, water cleanup and drying services within a quick and efficient time span. This is because we have extensive experience, training and certification in water damage restoration. Our professionals will send multiple crew members to the site to get the work done in the shortest amount of time possible. We will also get to the root cause of the water in the home or business. If it is a supply line break or a pipe break, we will bring our plumbing partners in as well.

Mildew and Mold growth prevention

Flooded water and secondary water damage may provide a good breeding ground for mold and mildew. Flood damage mitigation professionals will conduct drying to avoid the growth of fungi and other harmful microorganisms. If mold is already present, we will use grade cleaner and disinfectants to eliminate the mold. This will prevent exposure to the mold and mold growth, which can affect your health.

Holistic help

A Water restoration company offers more than drying and water cleanup services. Our services are holistic and beneficial to the home or business owner. A flooded property comes with other issues that are subject to the flood damage. We also offer additional services such as deodorization, vent cleaning, sanitation, and content restoration. Our main objective is to restore your property to its previous condition prior to water in the home or water in the business damage. Very often, our customers have commented their property looks even better after our services than it did before. We do our best to make all of our customers happy each and every time.
