Why Choose PuroClean Emergency Experts Remediation Services?

Most standard homeowner policies, known by most insurance companies as the HO3 policy, exclude coverage for basement backup sewer & drain water losses. But, this endorsement, or rider, is available by most insurers. The amount of coverage will be based on whether your basement is finished or unfinished. The cost to repair finished basements can be very large if you have drywall, wood paneling, carpet, a bar, etc. Your insurance agent can help you determine the level of coverage you need to bring your basement back to pre-loss condition. Note that water that originates from outside that comes from windows or through the foundation walls or floor cracks may only be covered with a flood endorsement or rider, if available in your geographic region. Ask your agent for more details if you reside in a flood plain or you think you may.

Smart Homeowner Tip

In a basement water loss your personal possessions may suffer damage, and in cases where sewage is present if they are affected they are often a total loss. To reduce the possibility of loss of items on the floor, place them in plastic containers and get them off the floor using plastic shelf racks. Loss of furniture to water damage may be unavoidable however other items normally on the floor can be protected against damage or loss.

Did You Know?

However, your insurance company may offer a mold endorsement, or rider, that includes mold coverage. The subject of mold coverage can get complicated.

Also inquire about premiums and deductibles for mold coverage.

Storm Damage

When mother nature comes calling and causes property damage to your home due to hail, wind, tornado, lightning, and heavy rains… PuroClean will be there to help clean up and restore your property.

Water damage restoration companies like PuroClean perform water mitigation to keep your premises in optimal condition. The multi-phase procedure involves extracting and pumping water from the flooded spaces. The water removal process takes place before cleaning and drying, using dehumidifiers and high-velocity air blowers.

After a thorough inspection of your property, PuroClean technicians will determine which restoration procedures are required. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to detect moisture on and inside different surfaces and structures. Also, we use EPA-registered disinfectants to clean, sanitize and deodorize. Concentration is focused on removing mold-related issues and the deodorization of walls, floors, crawl spaces and wall cavities.

Vanities and cabinets

Unlike drywall, which dries faster than some other structural items, our objective is to try and prohibit as much damage as possible. However, cabinets can present some challenges depending on the amount of water that affects them, and the sort of materials in which the cabinets are constructed. Fortunately, your local PuroClean water damage remediation professionals can employ effective drying techniques to accelerate evaporation with the goal of drying most materials as quickly as possible and returning them to a pre-loss condition in appearance, cleanliness, and dry standard.

Sewage backup cleanup

In a sewage backup and flooding situation, you can depend on PuroClean professionals to eliminate disease-causing pathogens, which can present significant health risks. Sewage emergencies present a difficult situation for residential and commercial property owners. It is important to have the intervention of certified water remediation experts when managing a sewage flood issue. Our specialists will use EPA registered disinfectants to the flooded areas and use specialized cleaning methods that may include the eradication of select materials that cannot be salvaged in accordance with industry standards.

Wood flooring

Wood floors need careful water mitigation and restoration to eliminate moisture. The procedure requires the use of a specialty drying system that can consist of heat, desiccant dehumidification, and the unique drying panel system. Although this special drying system is designed to dry hardwood floors with little to no refinishing required, some hardwood surfaces may be needed to restore the original appearance of the flooring.

Crawl spaces and wall cavities

Professional restoration specialists are well trained in managing issues caused by trapped moisture in walls, floors, ceilings, and crawl spaces. If left untreated, these areas can become weak, crumbling, and riddled with mold. Our restoration specialists make the first priority out of finding and treating all water ravaged areas successfully, so as to prevent any further mold, microbial or structural problems.
