While we hope you never face the challenges and costs of a flooded home, many homeowners experience some level of flooding. Whether it’s a basement or an entire house, addressing the affected area quickly is crucial to protect your family and prevent exposure to contaminated water.
Sourgum is here to help in every capacity, providing quick and efficient dumpster rentals priced fairly and backed by a dedicated team so that you can recover from the flood as quickly as possible.
Flood-damaged rooms must be addressed promptly for two key reasons. First, floodwater contains bacteria that can contaminate your home and pose health risks. Second, even after the water recedes, mold can develop, leading to long-term damage.
Homes can flood for a variety of reasons: water can come from above, below, or even through your plumbing. Following the path of least resistance, water can seep through roofs, walls, and floors, often collecting in basements.
Flooding can occur even in well-maintained homes, typically due to poor drainage, heavy rains or snowmelt, clogged gutters, a faulty or overwhelmed sump pump, plumbing leaks, or a combination of these factors.
With the rise in extreme weather events linked to climate change, homes near bodies of water or in low-lying areas are increasingly at risk of flooding.
After initial cleanup, you’ll need to dispose of the large amounts of debris left by the flood. This can include furniture and household items, as well as construction materials such as siding, insulation, and flooring. In many cases, the debris alone makes a dumpster necessary, If multiple homes are affected, neighbors can even share a dumpster to make cleanup more efficient.
Unfortunately, there is only so much you can do to prevent flooding, especially where the natural elements are involved. However, there are some things you can do to protect your home and family from flood disasters.
