Storm and flood damage restoration is a must when it comes to your property. SERVPRO will be on-site within 4 hours of the initial call.

Our fast restoration response helps Raleigh residences after devastating storm damage. 

Restoring homes and businesses after the severe weather Raleigh can experience often means preparing for substantial flood effects. We have a range of extraction tools to mitigate loss through water removal, including:

• Wet vacuums
• Weighted extractors
• High-pressure pumps
• Engine-driven extractors

Attic Flooding and Roof Damage 

Because of the severe weather common to North Carolina, storm and flooding restoration for Raleigh homes is a frequent need. Roof damage, for example, can cripple the building’s envelope and ability to keep water from infiltrating the attic. As leading water restoration professionals, we have multiple extraction and drying tools for this confined space.

Basement Flooding and Foundation Degradation 

The basement level of your property is a convenient place for floodwater to collect when disasters strike. When your foundation battles hydrostatic pressure from groundwater or the immensity of flash flood power, this lower level of your home can become overwhelmed. We have submersible pump extractors to discharge water pooling here quickly.

Flooding in Crawlspaces Beneath the Main Floor 

The space below your home designed for access to your utilities can be another area likely to experience flooding in the lower-lying portions of the Greater Raleigh area. While extraction is one of the ways that we can quickly help, a long-term solution is crawlspace encapsulation to protect structural elements from floodwater exposure in the future.

Understanding the areas of your home that might experience flood damage can help you prepare for what your property might need after a disaster.
