Flood Damage’s Effects on Homes and Belongings

Flooding has a multi-pronged effect on Norwich homeowners’ property:

• Water damage caused by flooding can impact a home’s structural integrity, compromise electrical systems, and invite in unsanitary, hard-to-clean debris.
• Flood moisture can damage books, upholstery, and electronics, which may need specialized care. 
• Other items, like carpet, padding, and insulation, may require removal and replacement to prevent potential microbial contamination in the home.

Fortunately, SERVPRO professionals can tackle all these issues and more with specialized tools compliant with Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC) protocols for flood mitigation.

SERVPRO uses a highly organized pack-out process to pack up and move belongings out of the home for restoration offsite at a local SERVPRO facility. This process provides several benefits:

• On-site crews can focus on cleaning and restoring the structure without risking secondary damages to clients’ personal property.
• Documentation via photos, paper and digital inventory systems, and videos all support homeowners’ proof of loss claims. 
• Technicians can preserve unsalvageable flood-damaged documents with digital copies where possible.

After homeowners’ belongings are inspected, cleaned, and restored, SERVPRO’s detailed inventory system ensures they return to their rightful place in the home.
