Cleaning Up Kitchen Surfaces After Flooding in Jamestown Homes
Cleaning up after damaging flood losses in Jamestown homes begins with an understanding of the full spread and severity of these circumstances. Our professionals can see where penetration of wind-driven and runoff rain can enter the house from a compromised roof. Because we have a full division of licensed general contractors in-house, we can leave fewer stages of restoration and recovery in the hands of subcontractors or other tradespeople.
Debris and tree limbs both have the capability of puncturing or collapsing a portion of a roof during a severe weather event – leading to flooding damage in Jamestown homes. With clean water flooding scenarios, the path of migrating water damage must be established by our SERVPRO technicians when we first arrive at the residence. When water moves from the attic space into the kitchen, there are many potential threats that this could present, including the degradation of exposed materials like cabinets, counters, flooring, and appliances.
Addressing flood damage through the ceiling and into the kitchen area requires the removal of ceiling tile or drywall to drain water from the cavity. In most cases, any insulation found here must get removed as well. Floodwater can affect surfaces throughout the room in a direct way, especially the flooring and cabinetry. Cleaning these areas is vital to begin as soon as possible, but only after extraction and drying.
Residues and debris can come along with penetrating floodwater and affect exposed surfaces. Our SERVPRO professionals have premier cleaning agents and multiple techniques for recovering salvageable materials in-house. From wiping down walls with our potent cleaning products to resurfacing and refinishing wood cabinets and flooring, we can make losses in your kitchen “Like it never even happened.”
As troublesome as flooding can be for your property, we have the equipment and products to manage these disasters. Our contractors can work on emergency board-up and tarping for compromised roofs and dry out migrating water loss towards the kitchen.
