Flooding

Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters, capable of causing extensive damage to properties and posing serious risks to safety. At United Water Restoration Group of Charlotte, we specialize in providing comprehensive flood mitigation, cleanup, and restoration services, ensuring that affected properties are returned to their pre-disaster conditions as swiftly and efficiently as possible.

Understanding Flooding

Flooding can occur due to a variety of reasons including heavy rainfall, storm surges, broken levees, or overflowing rivers and lakes. The water from floods can infiltrate homes and businesses, ruining structures, furnishings, and even the foundation of buildings. Immediate action is crucial to minimize damage and begin the restoration process, as the longer water sits, the more potential there is for lasting damage and mold growth.

Immediate Flood Response

Our immediate response team at United Water Restoration Group of Charlotte is on call 24/7 to handle any flooding emergency. Upon arrival, our first priority is to ensure the safety of all occupants. We then quickly assess the extent of the flooding and begin the process of water extraction using powerful pumps and vacuums. Rapid water removal is crucial to prevent the spread of moisture to unaffected areas and reduce the overall impact of the flood.

Comprehensive Damage Assessment

Following water extraction, our team conducts a thorough damage assessment to identify all impacted areas and materials. Mold and structural problems can develop from unchecked concealed moisture, which is why this examination includes a search for such areas. By utilizing moisture monitors and other cutting-edge techniques, we can precisely identify problem areas and provide a comprehensive restoration strategy.

Cleaning, Sanitization, and Restoration

Cleaning and sanitizing flood-affected areas are paramount due to the potential contamination brought by floodwaters, which may include sewage and other hazardous materials. Our professionals use EPA-approved disinfectants to clean all surfaces thoroughly. Following cleaning, the restoration process begins, which may involve repairing or replacing flooring, drywall, and other structural elements. We also take care to restore personal belongings wherever possible, using specialized cleaning techniques to save items such as furniture, clothing, and important documents.

Mold Prevention and Remediation

Given the high risk of mold following a flood, United Water Restoration Group of Charlotte implements proactive measures to prevent mold growth. This includes applying antimicrobial treatments to all affected areas and ensuring thorough drying with industrial dehumidifiers and air movers. If mold is already present, our certified mold remediation experts can safely and effectively remove it, protecting the health of building occupants and the integrity of the structure.

Long-Term Flood Prevention Solutions

To help prevent future flooding, our team offers consultations on flood prevention strategies. This can include modifying landscaping to improve drainage, installing sump pumps and backflow valves, and other structural modifications that enhance a property’s resistance to floodwaters.
