SERVPRO Has the Resources and Crews to Neutralize Foul Odors Post Storm Events
Heavy rains in the Irwindale area can create flash floods, affected many homes and families. These kinds of floods gather momentum within six hours of the storms that caused them and are distinguished by a rapid rise of water that is fast-moving. Water like this is hazardous and can move massive rocks. Flash floods also carry debris which raises their potential to injure people and damage structures.
Your home in Irwindale can suffer from a lot of flood damage when the heavy rains enter into your structure. What was once your home can suddenly become a sopping, wet mess very quickly. In a case like this, you need professional help cleaning it all up, and our technicians at SERVPRO are always standing by to assist you. With our specialized training and tools, we can help restore your home back to its previous condition.
One of the steps of flood damage remediation, typically in the final stages, is deodorizing all the affected areas. The first step to getting rid of odors is to remove the source. Sewage in your home, for instance, would smell. Until we get rid of it, the smell remains no matter what we do. Some of the most common sources of odor in flood damage include moisture, sewage, dirt, mildew, dead animals, and pet waste.
To make these smells go away, SERVPRO technicians remove the cause. Odor issues from water damage usually happen because wet materials have not been dried. As the level of moisture returns to usual, a lot of the odor problems go away as well.
In most situations of deodorization, the scents are coming from multiple sources. To find all of them and figure out the specific methods to fight each of the of them requires technical equipment and a vast amount of knowledge. Instead, we use multiple methods in a majority of deodorizing situations. Using multiple methods keeps the odors from coming back.
Different deodorant types that we use include filtration and absorption agents, masking agents, disinfectants, and sanitizers, pairing agents, and electrically generated deodorizers. We also work with you to ensure that you like the smell of the professional products we choose to apply.
