How Should Homeowners Handle Immediate Safety Concerns?

Flood damage in Amityville can bring the whole town to a stop. We respond quickly to emergency calls, which allows us to diminish potential secondary damage. Before we arrive, we recommend homeowners:

• Shut off all utilities, especially water and electricity.
• Do not walk in the flooded area. 
• Wear protective gloves if you must handle contaminated items.
• Dispose of any foodstuff that came into contact with floodwater.

How Does SERVPRO Handle Basement Flooding Cleanup?

Our technicians use advanced equipment for fast and efficient flood water extraction. Debris and many other contaminants can end up in your basement when the floodwater enters your home. We utilize a self-priming trash pump to extract the water. SERVPRO can remove hidden water, sanitize, and dry the area with controlled demolition. We clean, disinfect, and restore all impacted surfaces, structural elements, and content affected by the flood. If we are not able to salvage the item, we dispose of it properly.
