Home Floods - 60209

Floods can accumulate anywhere in your property. Even so, it's a most difficult problem to deal with when it gathers in a person's basement.

Basements keep everything from tools, old furniture and possessions, and even paint and other chemical based materials. Each one of these may mix in the flood water, forming more unsafe substances. For this reason it will always be essential for us to go in to floodwater with the proper gear. Water-resistant and impenetrable gloves and boots are of utmost importance. Long sleeved clothes and pants are also a necessity. Additionally, when going into a flooded cellar, because of the presence of electrical wires and outlets, we always turn off the power supply inside the whole structure to prevent electrocution.

In draining floodwater, we will make sure that the pump you are working with runs on a rechargeable source of energy, or from a power supply outside of the home or structure you're in. Perma-Seal will be sure to drain the water slowly but surely, about a foot every eight to twelve hours to allow the walls and other fittings to dry out and regain their sturdiness.
