Cleaning Up Flood Damage In Your Pensacola Condo

When your Pensacola condo is in danger of flooding from local rivers rising this spring, it is good to be able to prepare your residence as much as possible before the waters reach you. Doing what you can ahead of time helps your home suffer less damage than if you did nothing, and it can make the aftermath of the floodwaters a lot easier to handle.

No matter what, after flooding in your Pensacola condo has occurred, you need the professional help of a flood damage remediation company to help you restore your home as quickly as possible. At SERVPRO, we understand the direness of the situation and that the longer the water sits, the more damage is done, so we do not waste any time getting to you after you contact us.

Your primary line of defense when you know the floodwaters are making their way to your residence is to use sandbags. Building a wall with these sacks can slow the water down enough so that it is more manageable. Old style sandbags work; however, they slow to fill and are heavy before they even get wet. There is a newer style that are pretty much flat bags filled with an absorbent material. Then, when wet, they sell up and present a barrier that is as good as the old-fashioned type.

Upon arrival to your home, SERVPRO technicians assess the extent of the damage first. Since this is a case of flooding, we always wear protective gear to protect us from possible contaminants in the water such as sewage and chemical runoff. We also have you and your family stay out of the home until we can finish restoring it so that we keep you safe. Truck-mounted pumps, industrial-sized fans, and dehumidifiers help us to remove the water from your condo and make it like nothing ever happened.

It is a good idea to purchase sandbags before you need them and store them in your garage in a high and dry location. The newer kinds are easy to store, as they do not take up much space until they are activated. For protecting a garage door or low entrance door, the sandbags are good to have on hand. The biggest problem with these newer bags is that they are not reusable.
