Bradenton flood damage removal by Service Master SRQ. This is an informative site to share our experiences with the water damages we have encountered in our industry. Floods in the Bradenton area happen every year in certain areas of our county. Lots of people don’t know that. Fortunately most folks in those areas are more than prepared with there structures for there homes raised up off of the ground to prevent flooding of the structure.
We are in one of the least likely places to get hit by a hurricane or flood by hurricanes in the state of Florida. In my opinion our worst fear for this area is tornadoes in the middle of the night. Still not a bad idea to have flood insurance as well as your standard home owners insurance since it still really does happen all the time.
A flood in your home can come from man made circumstances as well. Some of these circumstances can usually be attributed to the plumbing inside the home. Some plumbing is ran underneath the slab where others are a combination of slab and attic space. Usually copper is ran below and pvc is ran above. Both have freezing temperature rates depending on the insulation provided or not provided.
When a leak is discovered it is very important to observe the breach or leak and then shut off the source to the breach. Sometimes you can contain a leak without turning off the water to the entire unit or building.
Call ServiceMaster or another disaster restoration vendor to dispatch a water damage crew and equipment right away. The sooner they arrive the less damage and reconstruction headaches you will have.
When they arrive they will immediately stop any further damage to your personal property and structural property right away. Usually water extraction will come after most content is cleared from the effected area. So, if you are able, please go ahead and start to remove the items yourselves before we get there. Timing is of the essence when it comes to water damage. It is quite simply amazing what 2 inches of water can do to a home.
Every job we do is different due to the slope of the slab or the builders grade? You just never know until you investigate. The fact is: “Water moves to the least path of resistance and Wet Moves to Dry” Pretty simple huh. It really is not rocket science but it is important to use a company you can trust that will document your drying of your structure to insure the safety of you and/or your employees.
You can appreciate that when you call Service Master SRQ out to the job that it will be a job well done.
