What to Expect: Sewage Backups

1/27/2021 (Permalink)

Whenever heavy rains take over our counties, flooding and drain backups need to be on every property owners mind. Water finds the path of least resistance in order to enter a space, and this can mean your basements or sewer lines. 

Lots of demolition and sanitizing is required with a sewage or ground water flooding loss. SERVPRO of Christian, Todd, Logan, and Simpson counties makes sure that all safety protocols and IICRC standards are followed. We remove any drywall, contents, flooring, and insulation that touched the contaminated water. We use our own cleaning products and methods that are developed at our headquarters in Gallatin, TN. Lastly, we make sure that the structure is dried completely with our industrial air movers and dehumidifiers. 

Most insurance policies do not cover or have limited coverage when it comes to these types of flooding, so review your policy with your agent today! Then call SERVPRO when the disaster strikes.
