We Save Flooring Materials During Rocky Point Flooding Cleanup

SERVPRO takes on the challenge to save your floors
Contamination from floodwaters is one aspect of damage to flooring materials in a home. Modern surfaces like laminate flooring, engineered planks, and resilient flooring also required inspection, cleaning, and possible removal.
Flooring materials often represent the most formidable challenge during one of our flooding cleanup jobs in Rocky Point. With just a few hours of exposure to water, most flooring types used in local homes can begin to break down and suffer damages. Over many years of handling these situations, SERVPRO has developed a wide range of strategies for reversing the effects of flooding.
In years past, wood floors would often require full replacement due to warping and bending of boards and destruction of finishes. Today, SERVPRO technicians employ a specialized drying strategy that stops wood floors from drying in sub-optimal ways. Coupled with our expert refinishing work, this means that we can save most wood floors after a flood.
Carpeting can pose an even more significant challenge. Although carpeting can be easy to replace when needed, we try to avoid replacements whenever possible. In many cases, we cut out and replace only the carpet's damaged section while leaving the rest intact.
