SERVPRO’s 24/7 Flood Damage Removal for Milton Homes Restores Structural Materials

Milton home flood damage can be damaging not just for interior structures but for external ones as well. Limited air movement capabilities caused by structural materials and vapor barriers can mean that microbial growth and water odors can linger without professional intervention.

Milton area SERVPRO techs possess the tools necessary to restore Milton homes after flood damage. Air movement equipment, EPA-registered biocides, extraction tools, calibrated monitoring devices, and commercial-grade deodorizers all work in tandem to return a property to a sanitary and structurally sound state.

Addressing Exterior Wall Flood Damage Removal with SERVPRO

After removing unsalvageable flood-damaged sheetrock, technicians can do the following:

• Remove insulation, extract moisture, and prepare the structure for drying. Flood-affected insulation, especially if it is made of a porous organic material like cellulose, is likely to require replacement
• Technicians can drill holes in the tops and bottoms of walls in areas where sheetrock has not been removed with flood cuts to facilitate airflow. This process is especially crucial when external facing walls feature cabinetry
• SERVPRO professionals can also determine if a plastic vapor barrier is present behind the affected wall that can hinder the drying process and plan accordingly
