SERVPRO Handles Removal and Restoration Following a Storm

Heavy storms can make their way into the interior of your home. Rain can come through a ceiling or under a doorway causing damage to drywall or flooring. After the heaviest of storms, homes are often left with a lot of dirt and other debris. Professional home restoration services like SERVPRO can help you deal with damaged building materials and the mess left behind after a storm.

Storm damage removal from your Carmel home requires quick attention to mitigate further damages to your home. The more prolonged moisture lingers after a storm, the higher the chances of secondary damage occurring. 

When removing stormwater and cleaning the impacted area, it is essential to remember:

• Stormwater (from flooding) is contaminated black water (category 3) and needs proper disposal according to local and state regulations.
• To wear appropriate PPE to protect against contaminated water and cleaning chemicals.
• Some materials and items may require replacement if too severely damaged.
