SERVPRO Safely Restores Your Niagara Falls Property During Flood Damage Restoration
Professional storm water removal services can guarantee the safety of your property when an unfortunate incident happens. If the storm is so severe, it is advised to immediately contact a certified restoration company to prevent further damage and ensure your normal operations resume within a short time. We are discussing how we handle some of the challenges associated with flood damage.
Slip and fall hazards are common when your Niagara Falls property suffers storm damage. Our SERVPRO technicians take several steps to deal with such challenges. To minimize the risk of falls and slips, we wear slip-resistant boots and gloves and, at the same time, place warning signs at strategic points to warn individuals of the impending dangers.
Additionally, we can do the following to prevent such hazards:
- We dry the floors and other surfaces to reduce the risks.
- Place slip-resistant mats as a way of increasing tractions in high-traffic areas.
- We use appropriate tools and techniques to dry the floor.
- We ensure there is proper lighting in the area.
Electrical hazards are also common during flood damage restoration. When the water comes into contact with electrical equipment or outlets, electrocution is dangerous. So, we turn off the electricity and provide alternative lighting. We also assess the building for possible structural instability, and where necessary, we shore up the walls and install temporary support beams.
Storm water usually carries a lot of sediments and contaminants and may end up being deposited within your property. We can use shovels and rakes to dig, grade, and remove the sediments. If the sediments are located in a big area, our SERVPRO team uses centrifuges to fasten the removal and disposal of the contamination.
Contact SERVPRO of North Niagara County at (716) 299-0330 when you need storm water cleanup services after the disaster. We have the experience and expertise to determine the best tools and methods to excavate sediments, remove contaminants and ensure proper remediation. We make it "Like it never even happened."
