When a tree or branch punctures your home, it allows flood water to enter your home causing extensive damage.

SERVPRO Acts Fast to Prevent Further Damage in Your Home

When you are considering ways to keep your Nashua home from damages throughout the time your family lives there, several things come to mind. When you attribute the ever-present possibility of harsh weather conditions rolling through the area, one of the primary concerns for any homeowner should be the maintenance of their property by eliminating threats from dying trees and ensuring their water diversion measures are functioning correctly.

Thankfully not everyone has to deal with an entire tree falling into their home but fail to appreciate the extensive damage that one fallen branch can do. A weighty tree branch can gouge into the siding of your home and tear a hole in this location, limbs can puncture your roof, and they can easily break windows. Considering that these instances typically occur amid significant severe weather, untold amounts of rainwater can enter your home through the newly created hole. Soon, you are not only concerned about structural damages, but also have to worry about flood damage to your Nashua residence.

Our SERVPRO restoration specialists can appreciate a situation where time is of the essence. The faster that pooling water can get removed, the less lasting structural damage that can occur and the fewer contents of your home that become ruined. When our team arrives, we focus first on sealing off the sources of the flood damage via tarps, boards or hydraulic cement for foundational repairs.

Once the source of the water damage has gotten rectified, our experienced SERVPRO team can begin their work on restoring your home to its former condition. For large jobs, truck mounted pumps get used to pull the water from the floors. If the damage has not become extensive enough for a pump truck from our fleet, our specialists utilize portable pumps and wet-vacs to get the job done.

Once the area gets dried successfully using air movers and dehumidifiers, our professionals can closely assess for further damage that could not get seen with initial inspections.

You cannot always predict the behavior of trees or the likelihood of limbs breaking or trees getting uprooted during severe weather. You can count on the professionals at SERVPRO of Nashua to help you set things right. Reach us anytime by calling (603) 889-2311.
