A Pack-Out Takes Control of Both Structural and Content Recovery after Flood Damage in Simsbury

After several days of torrential downpours, flooding can become a significant problem in your Simsbury home. Overflowing gutters and the saturated ground around your house send quantities of water seeping into your basement or cellar. Water rises inside, putting not only the foundation and structural components of your home at risk of deterioration but also any stored items, furnishings, or fixtures in your lower level.

Flood damage in Simsbury needs fast action, but taking the time to move items out of the flood spaces in your home is worth a slight delay in flood remediation tasks. Packing-out furniture, household goods, and personal possessions can simplify water removal and structural drying. If the flooded rooms are full of articles, our crews need to move them many times during the floodwater mitigation to ensure we access all wet spaces. Furniture can bleed stain or rust onto carpeting, and boxes full of wet items slow down structural drying.

SERVPRO keeps your pack-out organized with our Contents Claim Inventory System (CCIS). Using lists, digital photos, and barcoding, we track all items moved from your home to our production facility. We strive to work with you and your insurance carrier to make informed decisions about things to clean, dry and restore and items that are better discarded and replaced.

Using our CCIS protocol saves time and money. Homeowners often toss out property that SERVPRO Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC)-trained technicians can bring back to pre-flooding function and appearance. Using specialized techniques and smaller, more concentrated drying chambers removes moisture from furniture and electronics.

Innovative techniques like freeze-drying for photos and papers efficiently pull moisture from treasured memories and important documents by preventing water from returning to a liquid state. Industrial washers and dryers clean and dry window treatments, clothing, and other soft objects, including beloved toys and expensive decor accent pieces. As the SERVPRO crew working on recovering your home’s structural integrity nears completion, our production team packs up the restored articles for return to your cleaned, disinfected, and dried residence.
