SERVPRO Technicians Offer Quick Response to Your Water Damage Emergency

Storms can pass through the Lincoln Village area with minimal warning. Given the right conditions, severe systems can adversely affect the exterior of your home which can lead to some acute damages that require the experience and equipment of professional restoration outfits.

While there might not always be a way to prevent storm damages or even the water damage in Lincoln Village they might ultimately lead to in your residence, having a plan in place for how to restore these effects is an excellent place to start. There are a wide array of damages that a storm can do to your home all by itself, but when you take into account the ability to knock down trees and utility line support poles, the threat to your home from powerful winds and torrential rainfall increases exponentially.

One of the first things that you should consider about the potential water damage that could affect your home in the wake of a storm is the penetration of water through your damaged roof. High winds, hail and torrential rainfall can cause a destructive force to the roofing materials used in the construction of your home. If at any point these materials weaken or break away, you have a point of access for runoff water and direct rainfall to seep inside. Our SERVPRO technicians can help to board off or seal over these damaged areas to begin drying and cleanup work right away.

Another something to consider is the effects caused by something falling into your home like the aforementioned tree or utility pole. The heavier weight can cut through thin materials like plywood and allow for water to enter your home unabated. In an emergency like this, it is always good to know that SERVPRO can arrive quickly to help mitigate the loss in this situation before it gets out of control.

From the drying of the water damage to the intricate dehumidification process in insulated areas like the attic or wall cavities, professional restoration like our SERVPRO of Stockton team can help you every step of the way. If you have water damage to contend with, do not hesitate to call us 24/7 at (209) 477-3090.
