Let our crew help after a storm damage disaster.

Keeping the Customer Safe After Flood Damage In Amherst

Flooding from swollen rivers and creeks can occur at any time. We often hear about massive flooding where entire towns are flooded. Then there are the sudden downpours, which flood a local stream. The floodwater is gone almost as fast as the rainstorm. Your home or business may be left with floodwater inside your home, along with mud and debris washed in through open doors and windows.

SERVPRO not only has the experience to deal with flood damage in Amherst and surrounding areas. We also have a highly trained staff. Our team is ready to respond within a minimum of four hours, and the team stays in contact providing updates regarding arrival times and who is arriving at your home.

Staying Safe

There are many things to be concerned about during flood events. During the actual flood, make sure you and your family or employees get to high ground. Always have an evacuation plan and make sure everyone knows what to do. Do not enter floodwaters, even those that are receding.

There are multiple hazards, aside from potential electrical hazards due to the water and potential short circuits. Also, the water in your home could be contaminated. Floodwaters collect all sorts of bad things, from garbage to overflow from sewer systems. SERVPRO encourages our customers to avoid entering flooded building areas. Wait until our team has had an opportunity to review the situation.

Protection and Disposal

Our SERVPRO crew chief and technicians are thoroughly trained, regarding how to handle contaminated debris and items in your home or business. We implement control measures in situations where exposure to these types of contaminants may pose health threats to staff and clients. Clients must remain outside of the area. SERVPRO team members working in the affected area must wear personal protective equipment during the inspection and while completing all decontamination activities. We want to restore your home, “Like it never even happened.” and keep you safe too!
