SERVPRO Can Help You With Flood Damage Restoration in Your Mississauga Home! 

No homeowner ever wants to deal with flood damage in their home. With one intense storm, you could find your home in the middle of a weeks-long process of restoration and anxiety. Everyone knows flooding can cause mould inside your home, which is simply another stressor for you, the homeowner, during an already stressful time. 

For this reason, never wait when your home needs local Mississauga flood damage remediation. Call as soon as you realize your home is beginning to flood, even if you doubt we can travel to your home. Here at SERVPRO, the sooner we know you need help, the sooner we can get to your location. 

Flash flooding occurs when an intense rainstorm overwhelms a city with how much water it releases. Rivers can flood, and, in some cases, damming systems can even fail. However, the vital thing about flash flooding is to realize that eventually, the water does recede. It could take some time, but SERVPRO is here to help you during your time of need. 

Let us say the base floor of your home has been impacted, which includes your kitchen, dining room, living room, half-bathroom, and garage. SERVPRO can send a large team of expert technicians to your home, and they can bring advanced technology explicitly made for flood damage restoration. Some of these devices include: 

• Water extractors and wet/dry vacuums 
• Floor drying mats 
• Dehumidifiers 
• Heaters
• Thermal camera

Our first goal is to remove standing water leftover in your home. We can even use infrared technology to look for hidden pockets of water. We can send your furniture and belongings to our facility for special treatment and then to a storage locker to wait until after the remediation is finished.

Typically, the next step is flood cuts, removing any cabinetry or vanities. We can set up drying equipment designed to pull excess moisture from your home's structure and use antifungal agents to help prevent mould growth. At SERVPRO, our technicians strive to tackle every aspect of remediation swiftly so that we can return your home to you in a meaningful amount of time. 

Don't hesitate when you need flood damage remediation. Talk to SERVPRO of North Mississauga by calling (905) 238-7376. We can help you at any time!
