Flooding can bring in pathogens and other debris. Contact SERVPRO for water removal and flood damage remediation services.

Restoration after flash floods in Marysville homes starts in several common areas.

Restoring your home after flood damage begins with appreciating the damage these natural disasters can do. With a rapid-response team for storm damage and water restoration, we ensure that your home receives the appropriate mitigation efforts to help where it is needed most.

Removing Water from the Basement

When considering the impact of flash flood damage on Marysville homes and businesses, the first considered obstacle for responding technicians will be standing water. Several feet of floodwater is possible after flash flood conditions, which do not recede when they have penetrated areas like the basement of a home. Extraction services are necessary in these cases, which can include:

• Truck-mount pumps
• Trash pumps
• Wet vacuums

Resolving Structural Damage

It is not uncommon for the area homes impacted by flash flooding to experience structural damage. Infiltration into the property can often exploit penetration points and vulnerabilities in the home’s exterior. As water continually passes through, these pathways become larger and more desperately in need of repair and reconstruction. We have a general contractor license to complete build-back services where needed.

Surface Cleaning Flooring and Wall Surfaces

The floors and wall surfaces are often heavily impacted by standing flood water and moisture concerns. Contamination is always a threat when flash flooding exists, as this rapidly-developing natural disaster grabs all substances and threatening solids in its path. Our IICRC-certified technicians need to focus on the disinfection cleaning of surfaces where reconstruction and demolition are unnecessary.

There is no mistaking the severe and devastating impact of flash floods on area properties. As quickly as these situations can overwhelm a home, we respond with the same urgency to ensure that mitigation gets started and the property is as protected as possible. This begins with knowing where flash flooding will impact the house the most. Our experienced SERVPRO of Marysville / Arlington team can help 24/7 at (360) 658-0506.
