Storm & Flood Damage Restoration
There are many things you can do to prevent disasters such as fires and mold in your home but it is nearly impossible to completely prevent damage from flooding and storms. Severe weather including thunderstorms, tornadoes, strong winds, and storms can each result in significant property damage. If a storm causes significant damage to your home or building, it must be stabilized immediately to prevent even worse damage. ServiceMaster Restoration by Complete provides flood and storm damage restoration services to stabilize and repair homes and businesses damaged by severe weather. We can stabilize and repair exterior damage to homes and buildings and we are equipped to remove standing flood water.
Flood Damage Cleanup
Indoor flooding can result from natural factors such as heavy rain and floods as well as causes within the home or building such as overflows, burst pipes, or sewage backups. Excessive amounts of water get absorbed quickly into drywall, wood, and flooring which can cause significant structural damage while also leaving these materials vulnerable to mold growth. There is a possibility that significant flooding in your home contains hazardous microorganisms and bacteria from sewage that can spread disease or infection if you make contact with the water.
At ServiceMaster Restoration by Complete, we are prepared to completely remove standing water from your home or business with our advanced water extraction equipment. Once the standing water is removed, we will set up our drying equipment and dehumidifiers to extract all remaining moisture from the affected surfaces and materials. Our technicians will also make sure to clean and sanitize the affected area to reduce the risk of negative health effects from contaminated water or sewage.
Our flood damage cleanup process includes the following:
- Total extraction of all flood water
- Complete drying of the affected surfaces and materials
- Thorough cleaning and sanitization of affected area to prevent mold

Storm Damage Restoration
In addition to flooding, there are a range of weather conditions including thunderstorms, hail, snow, and winds that can cause physical damage to your property. Storm damage is often made worse by water damage as damage to the siding or roof of a home allows in rain and precipitation. Strong winds are especially destructive because they can rip apart siding and roofs and topple utility poles and trees which can also cause damage.
