What Happened?

After torrential downpours led to a large accumulation of stormwater outside of this Hastings-On-Hudson, NY home, water slowly began penetrating through to the internal walls, damaging much of the drywall and carpet inside. Panicking after realizing the extent of the damage, the homeowner initially didn’t know where to turn. After hearing about SERVPRO of Yonkers North’s reputation for quality service from a friend, they decided to reach out to us to handle the mitigation of their home’s disaster.

Receiving the distress call from the homeowner, we quickly dispatched a team to the home. Arriving to the site within hours, work began to remove any water accumulation inside the walls. Using state of the art moisture sensors, our team was able to pinpoint exactly where the stormwater had broken through, immediately patching the main point of infiltration. 

What Did We Do?

After the home was sealed off from additional water, we then began soaking up the remaining water inside the home’s walls, using dehumidifiers to remove any moisture still lingering in the air. Spraying an antimicrobial agent was the final step, preventing any molds from forming due to potential moisture that may still remain. Once the job was finished, this homeowner was pleased with the speed and professionalism of the SERVPRO crew, noting the minute impact the mitigation efforts had on their day-to-day life. That’s the SERVPRO Guarantee, quality service that will leave your home looking “Like it never even happened.”
