Cleaning Up Your Oceanside Home After Flood Damage
Cleaning is a vital component of restoration work that our team does for Oceanside homes after disasters like flooding. While there are always multiple concerns to address, including structural degradation, saturation, contamination, and controlled demolition, cleanup, and debris removal are essential services to make this disaster “Like it never even happened.” You can count on the experience and training of our skilled professionals to handle every aspect of this recovery with great care.
Cleanup after flood damage in your Oceanside home occurs at many different stages of recovery, and this is primarily because cleaning happens in many phases itself. Our experienced SERVPRO professionals must contain the spread of damages in the property. We must also address air quality concerns, the potential growth of mold, debris and construction material degradation, and disinfection of the property. Each of these phases is a vital element to restoring your home after flood damage.
Containment is part of the mitigation process, and it can prove beneficial to your flood damaged house in many ways. From preventing the spread of mold spores to reducing harsh odors that can come with standing black and grey water in the property, physical barriers and the use of hydroxyl generators or ozone machines can help keep harmful conditions in the most concentrated areas.
While flooding can often involve the controlled demolition of affected construction materials, someone has to clean up this mess that gets made. Dust and debris are common in demolition and even reconstruction, so our SERVPRO team stays active in reducing the particulates in the air and keeping surfaces wiped clean. Once structural elements get exposed, we can also utilize this opportunity to apply disinfecting sprays and antimicrobial agents to protect the skeleton of your home from damaging conditions like mold or bacterial growth.
Every one of our technicians has a role in the recovery and restoration of a damaged property after a debilitating situation like flooding. You can count on the experienced and certified technicians of our SERVPRO of Long Beach / Oceanside crew to do whatever it takes to get your property back to preloss condition.
