Dealing with Flood Damage to Your Childhood Home in Indian Village

2/8/2017 (Permalink)

When flooding affects the family home, call SERVPRO to remediate.

Local SERVPRO Technicians are Trained to Remediate Damage from a Flood

The many rivers, lakes, and streams of Indiana are often favorite places for recreation. The same nearby lake where you went swimming two summers ago, or the stream where you found that arrowhead when you crossed it while out hiking with friends as a kid can also turn into the source of a nasty nightmare for your parents when the water floods into your childhood home.
 
The homes in Indian Village which have suffered flood damage are not safe to live in, and won't be until clean up is completed. SERVPRO is always ready when you need us, and we have the skills to ensure that your home will not only look safe and clean, but it will also be safe and clean again when we are done. We will treat your parents' home with the same diligent care and respect we would give to our own parents' homes.
 
Flooding causes such extensive damage, so it is highly unlikely that your parents would be able to remain in the home during clean up. Because of this, we will always be extra careful to ensure that those items that might be heirlooms or precious memories are cared for in a manner that is most conducive to their preservation and restoration. While photographs are extremely damaged by even the slightest amount of water, we will do our best to attempt to preserve them as best we can. There are photograph restoration facilities that we can refer you to if you would like, but results can vary greatly from one photo to the next.
 
As we place your parents' things in containers for safekeeping, we sort between damaged and undamaged. Those items that are damaged are further classified into different levels of damage. All medications and personal identifications we find are placed in separate containers so they are easy for your parents to gain access to, should they need anything. After we have boxed up everything in their home, we will then begin the process of finishing up the drying out, cleaning, and repairing that is required.
 
We know that your parents will want to return home as soon as they can and we want to help make this possible. In addition to being certified by the IICRC, our employees are also bonded and insured. When you allow someone to work inside your or your parents' home, you deserve a company who is reliable with trustworthy employees. We always work to exceed your expectations.
 
When you need someone trustworthy to restore a home you love after flood damage has revealed itself, you should call the trusted experts in your area. Call SERVPRO of Lafayette at (765) 420-0077 when you want things repaired and restored so everything is “Like it never even happened.”
