Storm Weather and How to Prepare for Restoration

4/19/2023 (Permalink)

Storm weather can be unpredictable and can cause significant damage to your home or business. High winds, heavy rain, hail, and lightning strikes can all wreak havoc on your property, leaving you with the need for restoration services. At SERVPRO of Lincoln, we understand how stressful it can be to deal with the aftermath of a storm. That's why we've put together this guide on how to prepare for storm weather and what to do if you need restoration services.

Preparation is Key

The best way to deal with storm damage is to prevent it from happening in the first place. Here are some tips on how to prepare for storm weather:

  1. Keep your gutters clean: Clogged gutters can cause water to overflow and damage your roof, walls, and foundation.

  2. Trim trees and shrubs: Trim any branches or shrubs that are close to your home or business. Strong winds can knock them down and cause damage.

  3. Check your roof: Inspect your roof for loose or damaged shingles. If you notice any issues, have them repaired before a storm hits.

  4. Secure outdoor items: Bring in any outdoor furniture, toys, or decorations that could be blown away by strong winds.

  5. Install storm shutters: If you live in an area prone to hurricanes or tornadoes, consider installing storm shutters to protect your windows.

What to Do After the Storm

If your home or business has suffered storm damage, it's important to act quickly to minimize the damage. Here are some steps to take:

  1. Assess the damage: Once it's safe to go outside, inspect your property for any damage. Take photos of the damage for insurance purposes.

  2. Call SERVPRO of Lincoln: Contact our restoration experts as soon as possible. We can help assess the damage and begin the restoration process.

  3. Stay safe: Don't attempt to enter your home or business if there is standing water or if the structure has been compromised.

  4. Document the damage: Make a list of any damaged items, and take photos or video of the damage.

  5. Contact your insurance company: Notify your insurance company of the damage and provide them with the documentation you've collected.

Water Damage Cleanup Mistakes

8/3/2022 (Permalink)

Water damage cleanup mistakes can lead to a lot of headaches and stress. If your property needs water damage restoration, here are a few of the mistakes you’ll want to avoid.

Waiting Before Cleanup

Water damage can lead to a lot of problems. The first rule of cleanup is to do it as soon as possible. Every minute that your belongings and property stay submerged lessens the chances of you getting that item or property back to its pre-damaged state. If you wait until it’s convenient to perform the cleanup, you’ll only end up with bigger problems.

Wrong Equipment

Using the wrong equipment will only aggravate the problem. Plus, the kind of equipment or tools you have might not be suitable for handling the water in your home. That means you won’t succeed at drying your home completely, which will leave your home at the mercy of mold and mildew growth. Don’t let that happen. Hire pros to handle this for you. They have specialized equipment to ensure the fast and efficient drying of your belongings and property.

Neglecting Important Details

Most of the time, people forget about the items they slog through when they wade through water damage. But there could be an electrical problem, broken glass, and other items that could injure you. It’s best that you hire pros instead of tackling this on your own. Restoration experts know what to look out for and how to do this in the safest way possible. They’re much better equipped to handle this than you with your makeshift tools.

Not Doing Your Homework

When you look for a restoration service, don’t hire the first company that you find. Look at the company’s history and background. SERVPRO of Lincoln is your trusted resource for cleaning and restoring water-damaged property. Our teams are IICRC certified. We have the latest advanced equipment and training to make sure your water damage problems are solved completely.

If you have water damage to your home or business property, call us anytime 24/7 at 402-466-4004. We'll be there to help!

Signs of Water Damage in Your Building

6/30/2022 (Permalink)

Sometimes it is essential to inspect our properties, homes, offices, apartments, etc. 

Here are signs you should check if there's some water damage early on:

1. Changes in floors, walls, and ceilings regarding paint, color, or texture

Many homeowners don't notice the changes to structural elements. They are hard to spot in familiar surroundings, even if you are good at cleaning up and upkeep; when water damage is on the cards, you can observe dry walls or ceilings being flaky. This condition, if left unchecked, can become bloated; also, tiles made of ceramic material often develop mold and cracks in the grout when damaged by water for being a porous material.

2. Running water sounds

Water damage isn't always visible but makes noticeable sounds. For example, drips creaks in the floorboards, and the sound of constantly running water may signify that you need repairs. In addition, tiny bubbles can result in holes in your concrete foundation, threatening the entire home's structure.

3. Increasing water bills

A sudden surge in utility bills is an excellent indicator of water damage. Ensure to check the visible pipelines and faucets in the house for any leaks. If you fail to find leaks in the visual areas, consider the possibility of water damage within the walls. If you spot any water damage, call a plumber as soon as possible.

Contact us if you see any signs that could show some mold in your residency or commercial business.
