Your home can be severely affected by flood damage if not taken care of. Contact SERVPRO for professional remediation services.

SERVPRO Technicians Have the Training and Experience to Clean Up Your Tallahassee Home from Any Amount of Water

Any homeowner that has had the experience of dealing with flood water in their house can tell you how frustrating it is to get rid of and the amount of damage it can cause. Unless you have access to professional-grade extraction and drying equipment, it is best to outsource the task to a restoration services company to ensure that the cleanup gets done right the first time. If you choose to do it on your own, signs of inadequate water cleanup include:

• Musty odors that do not diminish
• Buckling or warping sheetrock from wicking moisture
• Mold 
• Water stains

How Does SERVPRO Locate Water for Flooding Removal?

When the techs arrive onsite at a Tallahassee home for flooding removal, they do not rely on visuals to get the job done. The techs bring in an array of various devices such as moisture sensors and meters, thermohygrometers, and infrared cameras to track moisture within the property and a myriad of surfaces. The use of this advanced equipment lessens the amount of building materials that need removal during the extraction and drying phase. When water gets wicked into a wall, the techs can use their equipment to determine how far up the sheetrock the water traveled and remove only the damaged portion.

After the extraction, the techs use a large number of air movers and dehumidifiers deployed at once to bring down the moisture levels as rapidly as possible. This enables the entire area affected by the floodwater to get dried at the same time.

SERVPRO of Central Tallahassee at (850) 765-5706 performs flooding removal for local properties. The technicians are available 24/7 and have access to professional equipment to handle any size water damage to your house or contents, "Like it never even happened."
