New Orleans Businesses and Homes Benefit from SERVPRO's Fast Response Time and Advanced Equipment to Mitigate Flood Damage

SERVPRO Removes Flood Damage in New Orleans Fast

While there are many precautions in place to protect against flooding in Louisiana, homeowners still have to observe precautions and stay prepared in case of levee breaks and other disasters that can exacerbate floods. Something as simple as clogged gutters can redirect water under your foundation, which can cause damage that requires thousands of dollars to repair.

If clogged gutters or other structural issues lead to circumstances that cause flood damage in your New Orleans home, SERVPRO technicians are available day and night to address the disaster. This IICRC-certified firm is dedicated to providing homeowners with service that puts restoration and safety first to restore your home to a preloss condition whenever possible. SERVPRO technicians and franchise owners alike receive extensive education and certification to ensure that your disaster cleanup is done to code and per the needs of property owners and insurance adjusters.

Service Dedicated to Saving Homes
Your local SERVPRO is happy to be working with first responders in Louisiana and sponsors the annual First Responder Bowl to show gratitude for their services throughout the year. This firm is also a member of the Blue Goose Association, which serves New Orleans by providing aid to parts of the community through volunteer work and monetary contribution. This SERVPRO franchise also operates an emergency rapid response unit for victims of extreme weather events. This group includes project managers and crew chiefs who have 30 years of accumulated experience.

How SERVPRO Can Help
There are several steps technicians follow every time flooding occurs to ensure that they meet the standards expected of them and that all cleanup follows national and local codes. These steps include:

Assessment
Technicians use a variety of moisture measurement materials, including Thermo hygrometers, infrared cameras, and penetrating and non-penetrating moisture sensors to evaluate the extent of damage and formulate a plan of action.

Extraction
 SERVPRO can utilize both back-mounted extractors, and large truck-mounted and trash pumps to remove large quantities of water quickly and prepare flood-affected homes for thorough cleaning and drying.

Disinfection
This team uses EPA-registered, OSHA-approved antimicrobial cleaners to exterminate bacteria, mold, and other risks that can come from debris accumulation during floods.

Drying
Technicians can set up centrifugal air movers and industrial-grade dehumidifiers to pull moisture off of surfaces and eliminate it from a residence. This is often done in conjunction with controlled demolitions to remove soaked contents and building materials from the affected structure.

Restoration
SERVPRO works hard to clean up your residence and make repairs with the consent of property owners and insurance adjusters, cooperating with licensed subcontractors as necessary to restore homes.
