Call SERVPRO to Help with Flood Damage After Los Angeles Storms

If you experience flooding in any area of your Los Angeles home, you may think it is contained, and you can remove the water with a rented pump or shop vacuum. However, the only way to ensure safe, efficient water removal is to call in the help of skilled technicians. SERVPRO knows how to identify all issues, from minor to major, to ensure your home and family are back to normal fast. We work on extractions, structural problems, drying, and reconstruction to make it “Like it never even happened.”

When it comes to storm flood damage in Los Angeles, know there will be visible damage while some remains hidden from the naked eye. This involves hidden moisture from water that seeped into cracks and crevices and bacteria from contaminated water. The longer you wait to have proper cleanup and disinfection, the more of a hazard it becomes to anyone in your home.

SERVPRO professional inspection and assessment

We inspect all aspects of your storm damage and flooding, including:

• Board up and tarping services to address roof damage, broken windows, and more.
• Any areas where water may have migrated, under flooring tiles, carpet padding, baseboards, cabinetry, and behind walls.
• The level of contamination; we treat standing water by spraying antimicrobials to keep hazards to a minimum.

In many situations where floodwater occurs during a storm, your drywall wicks up water and makes it unsalvageable. If the water only goes up to a certain height, we can use controlled demolition to make flood cuts just a few inches above the water line. We then dry the space behind the wall, replace the missing drywall with new materials, and finish it to look as if it pre-flood.

We are the team you want on your side if you have flood damage from a storm. Call SERVPRO of Silver Lake/Echo Park or request help online. We are available 24/7 for emergency water removal services and restoration.
