Flood Damage Twin Falls – Restore or Replace
That's the question many homeowners ask themselves after a flood. Should the family throw out everything and replace it? Or should an attempt be made to save as much as possible? There are many factors to consider. Insurance coverage, heirlooms, contamination, total cost, and disruption to the family are just a few to consider. Consumers in this situation are also very emotional, having just experienced a catastrophic event. Many people need help to make these decisions.
SERVPRO has been providing flood damage services in Twin Falls and the surrounding area for years. We provide a 5-year warranty to back up our work, and we work closely with the client and their insurance company to make the right decisions for every situation. Many items can be recovered, de-sanitized, and cleaned. Generally, porous items have absorbed too much water and contaminated materials. We suggest replacing these items in most situations.
Contaminated Materials
Floodwaters carry a great deal of debris, including mud, as well as contaminated materials. Chemicals, biohazards, feces, even human waste can be picked up by floodwaters and carried into your home. With mud coating everything, it can be challenging to know what type of hazards there are and how your items should be treated. SERVPRO encourages homeowners in these situations to leave it to the pros.
Once SERVPRO flood technicians are on-site and have assessed the situation, we can provide guidance, regarding the best approach to take. If something can be saved through thorough cleaning, de-sanitized, and held in an uncontaminated staging area, we make every effort to save the item. We thoroughly review our recommendations with both the homeowner and the insurance adjuster to ensure that all variables are considered. Our objective is to return your home and contents to its original condition, "Like it never even happened." We also aim to keep your family safe as well and avoid health issues from contamination.
We hold a contractor license: Residential: RCE-43137, which enables our SERVPRO team to provide complete cleaning, restoration, repair, and reconstruction services.
