Professional Flood Damage Cleanup Services 24/7 

Flood damage, even shallow floods, can do considerable amounts of damage to a Raleigh property, incurring as much as $20,000 per inch of water or more. This water is often contaminated with sewage, chemical runoff, sharp objects, and even pests. These safety concerns can complicate flood damage cleanup for homeowners. On top of that, mold can proliferate in as little as one to two days after moisture impacts a home.

Raleigh homes receiving flood damage mitigation from SERVPRO can expect sanitation and restoration performed to Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) benchmarks for the restoration industry. This service is ready to respond 24/7 to minimize damage from storms and flooding.

Blackwater cleanup considerations: why leave it to the pros?

There are three main categories of water contamination in a disaster. Clean water typically comes from disasters like pipe leaks, which feature clean, treated water. Gray water can be a situation like a dishwasher overflow, which can have soap residues and other substances in the water.

Blackwater refers to water with the following potential features and risks:

• Extensive contamination can include trash, medical waste, and chemicals
• Bacteria and fungi that can cause health effects
• Viruses and parasites carried by sewage, carrion, pests, and other potential contaminants

SERVPRO can implement water restoration that includes demolishing contaminated surfaces and safely removing unsalvageable items like wet mattresses and carpeting. Safety measures like commercial-grade personal protective equipment and sanitation with EPA-registered biocides are key to restoring a property impacted by moisture.
