Home Flooding - 60453

Floods can collect anywhere in your home. Even so, it is a most difficult issue to handle when it gathers in a person's basement.

Basements store anything from power tools, old home furniture and belongings, and even paint and other chemical-based materials. Each one of these may mix in the flood water, forming more unsafe compounds. This is why it will always be essential for us to go in to floodwater with all the proper gear. Water-proof and impenetrable gloves and boots are of utmost importance. Long sleeved clothes and trousers are also a must. Also, when going into a flooded cellar, because of the presence of electrical wires and outlets, we always switch off the power supply inside the whole structure to prevent electrocution.

In draining floodwater, we will be sure that the pump you are using runs on a rechargeable power source, or from a power supply outside the property or structure you're in. Perma-Seal will be certain to drain the water slowly but surely, about a foot every eight to twelve hours to allow the walls and other fittings to dry up and regain their durability.
