Water Damage From Rain Storms: How To Pick Up The Pieces

Water Damage From Rain Storms: How To Pick Up The Pieces

If you've experienced water damage, rain damage or sewage invasion from a recent flash flooding, the results can be devastating. One of the first things that comes to mind is how to remove all of the water and repair the damage. While your first response may be to throw everything away and start over, think again. With the powerful extraction process from ZEROREZ® , you may be able to minimize the damage. Here are a few ways that Zr Clean™ technology may be able to help you.

Extraction and Removal

If rain damage has left your basement with puddles of water here and there, getting rid of it is imperative to save your space. Standing water can lead to health hazards and also leave a path of destruction in its wake. The certified water damage technicians at ZEROREZ® are equipped with powerful extraction wands and tools that remove water deep down underneath carpet pads, concrete and hardwood flooring. A technician then uses a safe, yet effective Zr Clean™ cleaning solution to help clean and rejuvenate water damaged surfaces.

Preventing Mold and Mildew

With standing water or water that is trapped within the fibers of your carpeting or furniture, mold spores can quickly begin to grow. To prevent this, ZEROREZ® recommends not only extracting water and debris but drying the area out completely. Our team has powerful commercial grade fans and machines that help target damp areas and draw out moisture. Using this process, along with a deep extraction of contaminated liquids can help you save areas that were once damaged by heavy rains.

Eliminating Odors

A powerful rainstorm moving through can easily wreak havoc on the interior of your home, especially if a window was left open or you had a ceiling cave in from the storm damage. Something that you may notice right away is an unpleasant odor from the rain water saturating your carpet pads, oriental rugs, furniture and flooring. By having an Zr Clean™ solution applied to your carpet and furniture, you're targeting embedded dirt and old dried detergents from previous cleanings. The powerful extraction method conducted by the ZEROREZ® professionals utilizes a high powered wand to truly penetrate surfaces, loosen up stains and restore your carpet, padding, furniture and flooring to like-new. Not only are stains gone but odors are also removed, not just masked.

Improving Overall Air Quality

If you or other family members are sensitive to mold spores and other allergens that could trigger an allergic response, getting rid of these invaders is a priority. Incoming water from a flood can also bring along with it pollen and other contaminants that could cause respiratory distress. ZEROREZ® not only removes dirty water that's been deeply saturated into your homes surfaces, technicians also use other methods such as duct cleaning to help target mold spores and allergens that may be trapped in your home's furnace duct work system.

on't give up hope that you've lost everything after a flood. Whether it's water damage, rain damage or deep down stains, the pros at ZEROREZ® will quickly come to your rescue and restore damaged items to like new again.
