SERVPRO Helps Clean and Decontaminate Saugus Properties after Flooding

If a storm leaves your property inundated, you must clean up all the affected areas to remove physical soils, invisible contaminants, and bad odor. Floodwaters contain a cocktail of waste materials ranging from biohazards such as raw sewage and harmful industrial chemicals. For cleaning to be effective, removal of all these substances is necessary.

Depending on the extent of flood damage at your Saugus property, various cleanup steps might be necessary to address all the issues. The appropriate resources must accompany the decision to take various cleaning steps. For instance, removing waste materials from a wall cavity is only possible if you have the tools to open up its panels.

Tools and Kits

SERVPRO assesses loss sites to determine the necessary cleaning tasks and avail all the tools and professional cleaning products needed. In a typical cleaning exercise, our technicians:

  • Spray EPA-registered disinfectants directly into flooded areas of the property
  • Pressure wash structural components
  • Remove fine wastes such as silt and sewage
  • Place air movers and dehumidifiers around the property to dry wet materials

SERVPRO of Saugus, West Lynn, has well-trained technicians who can clean up any property after flood damage. Call us at (978) 744-0409.
