Home Floods - Saint Charles, Illinois 60175

Floods can gather anywhere in your home. However, it's a most difficult problem to handle when it gathers in a person's basement.

Basements keep anything from tools, aged furniture and belongings, and even paint and other chemical-based substances. All these may mix in the flood water, creating more harmful substances. For this reason it will always be important for us to go in to floodwater using the appropriate gear. Water-resistant and impenetrable gloves and footwear are of utmost importance. Long sleeved clothing and trousers will also be a necessity. Also, when going into a flooded basement, because of the presence of electrical cables and outlets, we always turn off the power supply inside the whole structure to avoid electrocution.

In draining floodwater, we'll be sure that the pump you are using runs on a rechargeable source of energy, or from a power supply outside of the property or structure you are 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 fixtures to dry up and regain their sturdiness.
