How can flood damage restoration experts help?
The flood damage in your Hazlet home may have occurred after a torrential downpour, especially if oil, grass or debris had clogged the drainage system. Our team can take care of the issue quickly to calm your fears. You can recognize that even though things may feel terrible today, they can improve. Our SERVPRO team can take several steps to restore your flooded house to its original condition.

    •    We can look out for hazards in the home. Water and electricity are a deadly combination. So, we turn off the power to prevent electrocution hazards.
    •    Our team can remove the floodwater using appropriate pumps. For instance, if the water has debris, we can use a self-priming trash pump to remove it. We treat floodwater as highly infectious waste material. When working in environments containing infectious waste, we follow correct safety precautions, including being immunized against diseases. As the water starts to recede, our team can use wet vacuums to remove water from the floors.
    •    After removing the standing water, affected surfaces usually remain damp. Our SERVPRO team can use axial air movers to help dry the wet areas. We also set up dehumidifiers, which remove excess moisture from the air. We do our best to avoid disrupting the daily life of our customers.

Can my insurance policy cover flood damage?
If you have flood insurance, it can provide coverage for flooding due to blocked storm drains and heavy rain. Insurance companies usually send an adjuster to evaluate the destruction and determine if the insurance policy can cover it. We can help you file a claim easily through our Contents Claim Inventory Services that offers a precise and detailed list of your valuables.
