Removing Flood Damage from Brooklyn Homes

5/22/2023 (Permalink)

Flooding happens, even in cities. But no worries. Your SERVPRO is trained and equipped for complete restoration.

Flood Damage Cleanup Services Start Immediately

As the most populated borough of New York City, Brooklyn is home to more than 2.7 million residents. It is estimated that there are close to a million residences, including condos, apartments, and single-family homes throughout the neighborhoods. This range of architecture makes disaster recovery services vary significantly from one site to the next. But like the borough's motto, "Unity makes strength," SERVPRO works closely with residents and property owners in Brooklyn and Coney Island to help. Quickly maneuvering throughout Kings County is critical after severe weather. While events like the annual Coney Island Mermaid Parade will make some waves, no one wants standing water in their house.

Addressing Brooklyn flood damage means understanding the impact of these disasters on structures of all sizes. While being ready to help the region's residents is essential, we also have answers for Large Loss concerns. Institutions, including Medgar Evers College, New York City College of Technology, and the Brooklyn Law School, play a big part in the municipality's identity. Flooding can significantly impact cultural centers like the Brooklyn Museum, Children's Museum, and the New York Transit Museum.

Cleaning Up Standing Floodwater in Brooklyn Properties 

Standing up to floodwater is vital when professional venues in the city become ruined by intruding water, such as the Barclay's Center. However, we limit extensive cleanup and recovery to meet strict deadlines for scheduled events such as the Brooklyn Nets taking the court or sometimes the New York Islanders breaking down the competition on the ice.

Flood removal focuses first on removing standing water, which involves extractors of multiple types. Even with the water gone, the remaining damage will require the following:

• Decontamination
• Disinfection
• Drying
