LetSERVPRO® of Santa Clarita Valley fix it, Don’t stress it.
With Many Flooring Types Impacted by Intruding Floodwater, We Have Many Cleaning Strategies for Santa Clarita Homes.
When flood damage penetrates residences in the area, many building materials can become severely damaged from the saturation, contamination concerns, and standing water. With many modern homes in the region having low-porosity flooring in the living areas like tile and concrete, tear-out is less of a concern as the need for extraction and thorough cleaning.
Clearing Standing Water and Debris
Flood damage to Santa Clarita homes can often come from several inches of standing water or more. Addressing these considerable concerns means implementing various extraction and water removal tools from our inventory. Some of these needed units include:
- Extractors
- Vacuums
- Pumps
- Specialty Removal Equipment
Squeegee Wand Water Removal
Attachments like the squeegee wand can be used with wet vacuums and even engine-driven units like our truck-mounted extractors. The wand corrals the thin layer of water on hard, non-porous surfaces in the house toward a vacuum in the middle of the device. After running the squeegee in the damaged areas, only spot drying is needed with mops, towels, and other evaporative drying equipment.
Surface Cleaning Strategies for Decontamination
One of the final stages of restoration and recovery after flood damage is removing residues and contaminants from the flooring materials. Because low porosity materials often do not require removal and replacement, it is critical to provide a thorough sanitization of the floors to eliminate pathogenic threats, biohazards, and health concerns brought in with the flooding.
Flooding continues to be a substantial threat to the valley and its homes, making it vital for teams like ourSERVPRO® of Santa Clarita Valley professionals to respond quickly. We have multiple solutions for cleaning and restoring impacted flooring and building materials, even premium construction elements like marble, finished concrete, and tile.
