Hurricane Sandy
Hurricane Sandy brought 18 inches of flood water into this home. After this photo was taken the sub-floor was removed to access wet insulation. We put the room back together and it is now better than it ever was. The home owner is so happy with our work.
What to Expect
When you call, we will ask several questions regarding your water damage emergency. These questions will help us determine what equipment and resources to bring, including how many trained SERVPRO Professionals may be needed.
Our SERVPRO Representative will ask several questions:
- Your name and contact information
- Your insurance information (if applicable)
- The street address of the water-damaged business
- When did the flooding or water damage occur?
- What caused the water damage (if known)?
- Is there electricity available (on-site)?
