Flooding and subsequent flood damage can certainly take you by surprise. React quickly with a quick call to SERVPRO. Our technicians are standing by.

Thoroughly Drying Flood Damage in Canoga Park

Setting specific goals for our technicians is an essential element in keeping a customer or property manager informed about progress and anticipated milestones. While emergency services are among the most vital efforts that we begin after flood loss events to prevent worsening conditions in the property, our production management also gets to work in key areas like:

• Scoping
• Cost Estimates
• Restoration Timeline
• Recovery Milestones

Pre-Loss Condition

When addressing flood damage in Canoga Park homes, it is necessary to consider the baseline restoration starts from against the goal. In all recovery projects our professionals undertake, we seek to return homes and businesses to preloss conditions. This effort and planning could mean extraction, drying, surface cleaning, controlled demolition, and repairs before the residence returns to normal for flooding.

Thorough Drying Solutions

Setting a drying goal means designing a specific timeline for the machines and units used in evaporating surface moisture and eliminating humidity in the environment. Lower relative humidity in the structure makes cleanup and drying more consistent and efficient. We use a combination of air movers to achieve the intended elimination of a cool air barrier and continued drying of moist building materials.

Repairs and Build-Back

A drying goal also helps homeowners know when to expect their house reconstruction to start. Flooding can often require the controlled demolition of flooring and wall systems directly exposed to contaminants, so the home is in disarray while the earliest restoration processes get started. Firm goals help ease homeowners' concerns, so they know when things will truly be "Like it never even happened."

When you contend with flood damage in your home, it is difficult to envision how the restoration process can rapidly return your property to its original state. Our SERVPRO of Canoga Park / West Hills team appreciates the urgency of these situations and is ready to respond fast when you call (818) 998-1500.
