Urgent Needs for Flood Water Removal in Newark Is Why SERVPRO Invests in Training and Equipment

9/25/2019 (Permalink)

A sign with the words Newark Delaware on it. We invest in the very best for our customers in Newark, let us help you with your water damage.

SERVPRO will always be first in line to assist your Newark home flood.

Speedy and professional extraction of flash flood waters must occur within 24 to 48 hours of a storm loss in Newark to avoid microbial growth. Contamination of flood waters is expected, with the fluids flowing into your home containing everything from fertilizers and mud to human and animal waste. Risks to occupants of your home include exposure to bacteria, fungi, viruses, and toxic chemicals and heavy metals. Although the water might drain away eventually, the immediate need for its exit is why our services are so critical. 

We Follow Industry Best Practices

Managing flood water removal in Newark requires trained and certified technicians with the most up-to-date resources. Our employees complete the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) training, with a focus on becoming Water Damage Restoration Technicians (WRT) and Applied Structural Drying (ASD) experts. Training requires efficient and high-capacity equipment to support our employees. This is why we invest in the latest proven innovations for performing water removal and structural drying. 

We Use EPA-Registered Disinfectants and Other Precautions

Flood waters are by definition incredibly contaminated. As heavy rains pour down and flow across the ground, they pick up substances and debris, including chemicals, silt, drowned animals, and untreated sewage. Human pathogens, including viruses and bacteria, mix with the fluids, entering your home as toxic sludge. Our technicians apply disinfectants pre-cleaning as a workplace safety measure and post-remediation to kill any lingering pathogens. They wear personal protective equipment (PPE) and install negative pressure air scrubbers to filter and exhaust airborne contaminants during the project, why SERVPRO can be trusted with your family’s safety.

We Take Responsibility for Proper Containment and Disposal of Hazardous Waste

Keeping up with current rules and regulations concerning contaminant disposal is our priority. You can be confident that we can protect both your family and the materials making up your home from the toxic materials in the flood water. Our vigilance is why SERVPRO is a wise choice when you cope with heavily contaminated water. 

Controlled Demolition Needs Buildback

We often need to remove pieces of drywall to release trapped water or provide access to dry out a property properly. Our company's general contractor’s license enables us to provide repair and reconstruction services directly, another example of why SERVPRO can complete a restoration job seamlessly. We achieve our commitment to making it “Like it never even happened” by avoiding you need to hire another contractor for finishing tasks.
