Water Damage in Your Alliance, Ohio Home

10/26/2021 (Permalink)

Flooding can cause water damage to your Alliance, Ohio home.

A backed-up sewer pipe or nearby road overflow can cause water damage in your Alliance, Ohio home. These types of property incidents are considered by restoration services to be biohazardous. There is a strong likelihood that your home may become flooded with herbicides, pesticides, raw sewage, or animal carcasses. SERVPRO of South & East Stark County has a dedicated team of biohazardous waste technicians to both remove and dispose of dangerous materials.

You should avoid all contact with bio-hazardous waste and black water in your Alliance, Ohio home. Where possible, you should attempt to seal off the room by closing doors to prevent potentially harmful sewer gases or pathogens escaping into other areas of the home. SERVPRO crews can arrive with the correct personal protective equipment (PPE) to both enter and decontaminate a biohazardous waste situation. 

We begin by removing as much water as possible, as quickly as possible. Contaminated water can spread or be absorbed by materials in the structure and contents of your home. The longer these materials are exposed to black water, the more likely it is they take on moisture and the pathogens within. Once the standing water is pumped out, we can begin the restoration service by shoveling or removing biohazardous waste into double-sealed disposal bags. SERVPRO can thoroughly disinfect the area as well as demolish and replace materials like drywall that may itself become contaminated. Thorough deodorization is included within the restoration service.

Please call the professionals of SERVPRO of South and East Stark County, if your home or business has a water damage. We make any disaster “Like it never even happened.” Call us at 330-823-4088 or visit our website about our water cleanup and restoration process at www.SERVPROsoutheaststarkcounty.com.
