Flooded Crawlspace Mitigated by SERVPRO of Westminster

The crawlspace was flooded by Hurricane Florence, September 2018. Due to the flooding, the water came from various sources; rivers and storm. Both which may contain untreated sewage, harsh chemicals and microbes. The water was grossly contaminated and could cause severe illness or death if indigested. This meant our team had to take precautions and suit up with protective gear to work on this crawlspace.  Note how the moisture reading shows the structure is “wet”. It was clear the crawlspace was flooded based on seeing the water, but it is the water that one cannot see that can cause an already inconvenience situation and turn into something more disruptive. With our professional equipment, SERVPRO of Westminster can detect what other areas have been affected. This way we can ensure we dry and perform the mitigation accurately and quickly.
