Do you have a flood problem in Monticello? Call SERVPRO to go by and take care of your problem.

After a flood, Monticello homes can have flooded crawlspaces that demand immediate extraction and drying attention by our SERVPRO professionals. 

While it might not be possible to avoid flooding and other natural disasters in Monticello entirely, our SERVPRO professionals can help you with fast and direct restoration and recovery services for extraction and drying.

Because flood damage in Monticello homes can be destructive and devastating, it gets assumed that crawlspace flooding is less severe. In truth, standing water in or around your property can be threatening for multiple reasons. Our team must work quickly to remove the water from beneath the main floor of your house using powerful extractors like our truck-mounted pumps.

What Are the Threats of a Flooded Crawlspace?

Understanding the severity of crawlspace flooding can help homeowners to appreciate services like professional extraction, drying, cleaning, and even crawlspace encapsulation by our residential contractors. Some of the primary threats that this damaged space can allow include:

• Microbial Growth
• Structural Deterioration
• Bacterial and Viral Pathogens
• poor indoor air quality

Flooding is a destructive force that must get addressed as soon as possible after a storm loss. Our SERVPRO of Sullivan and South Ulster Counties team can help. Call us today at (845) 791-7647.
