When flooding hits your area, you need to call the technicians at SERVPRO.

SERVPRO Flood Damage Cleanup Can Restore Levittown Home Garage Spaces

Garages are one of the most vulnerable areas to flooding in a given residence. These areas are designed for durability, but a flood can introduce contaminants and water damage that can quickly lead to more costly structural concerns that impact garage contents.

Levittown SERVPRO flood damage cleanup specialists are ready to return affected areas and their contents to a pre-flood state after a disaster occurs. This task is accomplished with the help of EPA-registered biocides, commercial-grade personal protective equipment (PPE), and sophisticated SERVPRO mitigation tools.

Sanitizing and Drying a Garage After a Flood

SERVPRO professionals can spray an OSHA-approved biocide solution on walls and floors and remove silt, sewage, and other solid debris from the area. Sheetrock and insulation in the garage may require removal with flood cuts. Techs can install new drywall and fiberglass insulation to replace unsalvageable materials per the property owner’s wishes.

• After taking care of basic cleanup tasks, technicians can focus on extracting the remaining moisture from structural materials and belongings in the garage.
• In many cases, contents can be cleaned onsite, but SERVPRO warehouse space is available for the restoration of flood-affected items.
• Technicians can also clean electrical systems in the garage and return them to a clean, dry, usable state once more.
• Suppose electrical power is unavailable on the property. In that case, SERVPRO can provide power sources for equipment, including truck extractors, air movers, and dehumidifiers.
• Structural materials benefit from desiccant dehumidifiers, but contents and electrical power restrictions, among other factors, may necessitate the use of low-grain refrigerant dehumidification, which uses refrigerant coils to convert air moisture into condensation for collection and disposal.
