Need Flood Damage Cleanup and Repair in Edgewater – Call SERVPRO®

The first European visitors to Edgewater occurred in 1640. The addition of the George Washington Bridge, which  connected nearby Fort Lee with Manhattan in 1931, and the conversion from industrial to residential, including the construction of condo buildings, significantly increased the population. Edgewater is subject to many weather events, including thunderstorms, which often bring heavy rain, straight-line wind, hail, and flooding to the area.

Flood damage to basements in Edgewater is typical for many residents after a storm rolls through our area. Water enters through broken windows, cracks in foundations, or backflow from basement drains. Flooding in your home can introduce several risks to homeowners and residents. Flood waters are often contaminated with sewage, chemicals, and bacteria. Wet materials are heavy and slippery, electrical circuits may be compromised, and mold colonies germinate within twenty-four hours.

Our SERVPRO team is highly trained to deal with all of these dangerous situations. We respond to your call within four hours, taking immediate action to recover damaged contents and reduce the chance of mold further contaminating your home. 

We deploy equipment to rapidly remove water and moisture from your home, depending on the circumstances and the amount of water pooled in your basement:

• High-capacity truck-mounted pumps, sump pumps, and self-priming trash pumps
• Large air movers and dehumidifiers to remove humidity and dry the space
• Wet vacuums to remove water from carpets
• Specialized equipment removes moisture from hardwood floors, crevices, and difficult-to-reach spaces
• All surfaces are cleaned, dried and sanitized
• Minor repairs include flooring, drywall replacement, painting

Call SERVPRO for assistance as soon as possible after floods damage your home to mitigate further damage to porous materials and avoid contamination from mold growth.
