ARE YOU PREPARED FOR A STORM?

10/1/2019 (Permalink)

Buildings are not always constructed to handle storm damage. After a hurricane, many components of your home or business may require replacement. If you experience destruction caused by strong elements during a storm, we’re here to help!

A hurricane can bring about black water, sewage water containing bacteria, mold, and viruses. Once black water permeates through the floor, walls, or ceiling, replacement of contaminated areas is recommended. Sanding down floorboards, for example, is no longer feasible once the top layer is heavily saturated.

Additionally, strong winds can knock over trees or bring debris into your home. A single branch from a large tree could have enough weight to destroy a roof. As a result, runoff of torrential rains may begin to flow into your Long Beach home or business. In this situation, SERVPRO technicians can use penetrating moisture meters and special equipment to recommend the best course of action based on the amount of damage incurred.

If you find yourself in a situation too big to handle, call SERVPRO of Northeast Long Beach/Lakewood for immediate and professional service.
